atheist, in Look

I like it. Straight to the point.

JazzAlien, in checking

W key jesus

chemical_cutthroat, in Free will

I mean, I'm a hard determinist, so I don't think anyone has free will, regardless of their belief system.

Behaviorbabe, in no thanks

True…not in a depressing way just in a disappointed with people and all done way

gizmonicus,

Yeah, I’m not in a hurry to die. I love my life, and I’m very fortunate to be in that position. But “living” forever sounds like hell to me. Especially if I would have to spend it with those idiots.

I think quite a few homophobic people are actually gay and think that everyone is experiencing their struggle.

I’m straight, and really not afraid that anything is going to convert me.

someguy3,

Many are bi, so for them it’s a choice on whether or not to act on it. So they project that it’s a choice for everyone. And the gays are choosing it because they’re lustful or sinful or weak or whatever.

Ahoy impoverished native tribe! We’ve arrived in your lands uninvited and we’ll kill you all if you don’t accept our lord and savior into your hearts.

The first panel should have been the sun, and the last panel could have been the sun again. Thanks for all the low entropy energy rays Sun, very cool of you. All life owes you.

BruceTwarzen, in History of religion

Or you never got indoctrinated and just skip to the last panel

A2PKXG, in History of religion

You left out the bit where said people start making up the rules and ask everyone for money. It’s essentially extortion, just with a twist.

gapbetweenus, in Weird

You can also trick Allah by being married for a day. Allah is not the smartest tool.

Viking_Hippie,

Definitely a tool, though, in both senses of the word.

If the radiation is strong enough to feel it, then it’s too late to save you

I got thrown out of Confirmation class when I asked about that, luckily my parents laughed and said I should keep asking questions.

Forthermore, one of the brothers kills the other and is then Banished into the wilderness.

Perhaps this is the point where the theory of evolution and the Bible agree, and humans do indeed descend from apes.

Wasn’t there people outside the garden? I think it stood somewhere that they met people after leaving the garden.

fidodo,

The fuck did they come from?

Don’t know wasn’t there but Genesis 4 definitly speaks about other people because Cain has a wife and his sons married some women who were not mentioned before.

pazukaza,

It isn’t explained. They were there when Adam and Eve were expelled. Which means they were kinda like an experiment for God.

But God is all-knowing, he basically set a trap on them knowing the outcome. He knew he was going to punish humanity even before he created the universe.

“Jusr wait until I create these mofos, the ass whooping I’m gonna give them… Fucking hell, I love working in mysterious ways”

NattyNatty2x4,

But God is all-knowing, he basically set a trap on them knowing the outcome. He knew he was going to punish humanity even before he created the universe.

Genesis still has some remnants of when yahweh wasn’t triple-omni. E.g. when he comes into the garden of eden after they ate the fruit, he asks what have they done as if he didn’t know yet. So he likely isn’t omniscient in the lore yet. If we wanted to be charitable, he’s just a sociopath here, and not a sadist that created a species already knowing he’s gonna punish them forever

A lot of the early books come from a time before the church decided to make Abrahamic religions monotheistic. YHWH was once the Hebrew god of war; a god within a pantheon of others. In that context, it makes sense that the other gods would have been doing their own thing. Another good example is GEN 3:22.

EyIchFragDochNur, in incest

I mean they have a sheep…

jayrhacker,

Wake up Sheeple! It's time for church.

RelentlessArts,

TIL the sons are Welsh.
