"What about idiots behind pulpits?"
You can find them in all walks of life, and yes, they can exist in pulpits too. Think Topeka, think Fred Phelps...
I do that one on my own.
I see. So God talks to you and you choose not to listen.
And I'd have more respect for "evolutionists" if they'd simply admit they are twisting their theory in order to prove that there is no God.
Look at your own words.
The socialist mass murderers of the 20th century vastly, exponentially, outpace any of their rivals....and that includes the Spanish Inquisition.
But, that is not the discussion. The point is that without God morality does not matter....everyone can have their own tailormade, designer morality of the moment. What difference does it make? Everyone's just gonna be forgotten dust, so what difference does it make?
So, comparing the Spanish Inquisition and the socialist mass murderers and the fact that both killed people is a legitimate question.
The real question is whether or not the Spanish Inquisition and the socialist mass murderers were following the Christian moral revelation.
The proper answer is that they were not.
/do you say, Talk to the hand God, becuz the face aint listening?
Isn't that the way with most people? God chats with everyone; does everyone listen?
I agree
Exactly what I thought.
It's amazing to me how the evolutionists are so tyrannical about not allowing competing views be expressed in the classroom. Even if that view does not mention specifically "God" but reduces that object to a more secular "designer."
And I thought science was supposed to be open minded.
I'm an evolutionist and I know there's a God. Go figure.
No it isn't. True christians are respectful and put God's Word first.
"And I'd have more respect for "evolutionists" if they'd simply admit they are twisting their theory in order to prove that there is no God."
I'd have more respect for you if you didn't lie about what evolution says.
Yeah, like He'd believe that.
"It's amazing to me how the evolutionists are so tyrannical about not allowing competing views be expressed in the classroom. Even if that view does not mention specifically "God" but reduces that object to a more secular "designer."

Name one scientific theory that names God as a causal agent.
Those "competing views" need to pass the peer-review test (like all other science) before they're introduced into the classroom.
Your pet desires do not get a pass in that department.
Then there must be very few "true Christians."
True christians are respectful and put God's Word first.
Since you want to 'put God's Word first'. Is this God's word.
Exodus 21:20-21: "If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property"
I have no problem with ID being taught...in philosophy class.
correct
