Don't assume anything. If I don't do, it I don't support it. Not my problem and none of my buisness.

Edge won't beat slaves? or stone anyone? He will use a visual inflection? Of course it's not really a question? Thus, a conclusion?
And .. "At least not as described." |

And, lo, Jesus said, "pull my finger."
But Edge doubted and quoth, "Which one would you say was right? Which one was morally right or can you not make a judgement call with your freewill?" Forsooth, JC didst gist him ye stink-eye; yea unto departing. |

And one last thing, in passing, I keep reading this thread as:
The Pants of God. Pantaloons. Carry on. |

Really was it God or humans that set those rules, the feminine plays just as
important of a role as men and they might even have a better brain for wisdom and education? Perhaps a refining of the creation of us, (the second model)? Read Enoch’s contribution to the creation, then get back to me. Let me give you a hint, matter and light. |

None would be right, so no morality is needed from that god. Because that morality is only what the person says it is when they say that they are speaking for that god, and if you think it is anything else, they have your number, same goes for the black book.
You guys never really show where having a god explains anything. Now with E=MC², for just one exsample, I can do something with. But with your idea of a god, I can only learn to hate anyone who's god is different or has no god at all, and at the same time you tell us it loves us thru gritted teeth. You guys have a very funny idea of what freewill should be. For you it free to be punished for not choosing right. Which isn't freewill at all, it is only another type of slavery to a god that can be anything you what it to be. For not once from the sky do we hear, "YOU GUYS GOT IT WRONG and/or RIGHT", seems your god's voice can only be heard in someone head, how convenient. Paul |

Rule 6
E4 This rule is intended to cover various kinds of disruptive posting. Primarily posting of commercial advertisements and spamming or flooding the forum by repeatedly posting identical, or very similar, content. It also covers such things as posting extremely large pictures that cause the page to display in an unusual manner and using excessive amounts of formatting such as large fonts, colour, and smilies that can make a thread difficult to read or even inaccessible. |

Actually, the smaller Edge's fonts get the better. What's the beef?

God's plan is to disappear and let the universe proceed without Him, as if He never existed.

No, why should I think that? It only needs to be true for one war to show you cannot trust people when they say god in on their side.
