I've already responded directly to that question. Of course you knew that when you wrote this. What are you even doing here?

Stupidity. Obviously! Neither was it a trained mind or coherent theology. If your life experience has taught you that the truth need not make sense then it's made you a fool. Thin skinned silliness. You've just admitted to being put off by people who use precision in their doctrine. There is...

Saying it doesn't make it so. You very obviously did contradict yourself. The whole thread is still right here for the whole world to read. You say you came for the kind of conversation that sharpens faith and opens hearts but leave the second you're asked to defend your "faith"! It seems what...

I invite you to read and respond to the following. Is God Moral?

He's simply trying to get you to see that you've overstated your case. The bible doesn't teach that God can do absolutely everything. In fact, it explicitly states that God cannot lie, but more than that, God cannot do the rationally absurd. He cannot make a perfect sphere with sharp edges. He...

So that which is "earned in the streets" is irrational and cannot be defended with sound reason? Is that what you intended to imply? No, I'm afraid I couldn't care less. (Not that I don't care about your personal experiences, but simply that they are not relevant to the point.) Experience is...

That does not answer the question. If your faith doesn't have to make sense, then how do you tell the Davidians that they're wrong?

This statement of yours is theological. Establish it, if you can. Show me the "study, argument, structure" that produced that doctrine.

Liar. Good bye.

No. You aren't thinking and so continually miss the point. The law should be simple - not complex and tens of thousands of pages long as your approach would lead to. Further, your proposed law would have the opposite of its implied intent (i.e. the implied intent is to cause less harm) because...

But you don't believe He's capable to producing and preserving a book of scripture. Not sure I see the point. If your faith doesn't have to make sense, tell me which nut-job lunatic doctrine can be falsified? Maybe David Koresh really was a sinning Messiah!

Why do you bother with such stupidity? Who is it that you're trying to convince with this drivel? When you ask an honest question we can continue.

Actually, the simpler the law, the easier it is to enforce. "Thou shalt not steal" covers most, if not all, forms of financial fraud. The complexity of current regulations often obscures accountability rather than promoting it. A just legal system should rely on clear moral principles applied...

It would require a fundamental change in form of government. The current system is based entirely too much on theft. As for government regulation, there is no need for the SEC, FCC, EPA and other things like it. There should be laws against fraud and other forms of theft (and other things like...

So far as I am concerned, unless and until @Derf repents, he no longer exists.

It's funny (in a bad way) the ubiquity of people (even many Christians) who think that Jesus was a leftist and taught leftist ideas.

That grants him more integrity than he deserves. He's a total waste of time.

You're a stupid waste of time. Good bye.

It makes perfect sense. The problem is that you're stupid and believe the nonsense you're told by whatever lying and irrational morons you listen to. Capitalism - real capitalism - is about the voluntary exchange of goods and services by mutual consent and for mutual benefit. It is the economic...

And for what possible benefit? Where is the pay off for believing such an obviously false thing in DIRECT contradiction to WHOLE CHAPTERS of the bible and God's own explicit verbatim command?! It is lunatic stupidity on a level I cannot deal with and will not tolerate.
