This one goes out to the theists who would engage in sermonizing and finger-pointing... instead of actually reaching out to other human beings in a more constructive way.
I'm not going to say much to that.
And this video? It's brief -- and entertaining, if not also educational.
But please, review and process it as you wish. This highlights one of the many things we could have talked about.
Meanwhile, I understand that not all theists are like this guy. I'm not making assertions about anyone, your faith or your capacity to have good intentions.
But I am asking you to review your own actions through a perspective that has attempted to be respectful and positive as a general policy. Review my posts and that should be evident.
Even if I agreed with your theological outlook, I'd advocate that you try a less negative approach if you're truly wishing to demonstrate your beliefs to other people. Zealot-like behavior only makes you sound as irrational as this caller, and ultimately complicates your divine mission.

If your morals don't agree with the practice of slavery as a moral choice, but you do claim to endorse the Bible as 100% the word of God, then -- how do you account for that?
Have your Affections and Reasoning turned you into your own god?
Yes, Raptor-meme. Yes they did.
And they always will.

Ignorance isn't really bliss....it's full of hatred. I feel sorry for people with closed minds. Thank you for pointing out the obvious flaws in the system of theism. You don't have to reach far for the truth you just have to be willing to hear it.
