If your god told you to kill your own son would you?

If you were in a race and your family was in it with you and everyone who made it to the end got a huge vast treasure... and all the sudden the creator of the race and the person funding the prize for all the competitors comes to you and says, if you wish to attain the treasure at the end of the race, push your son out of bounds. he will be disqualified, but rest assured he will also get his treasure, for it wasnt hihs fault he did not complete the race.

would you do it

We come in this world with no-thing, and we leave this world with no-thing. "Treasure" only has value that men put on it...

 In God I trust as in the USA they say. As for you, you are an idiot.

capt eq doesnt believe in God because the world and universe has a set of basic laws and everything that is has a logical explanation for its being what it is.


capt eq:



1 - FIRST MOVER: Some things are in motion, anything moved is moved by another, and there can't be an infinite series of movers. So there must be a first mover (a mover that isn't itself moved by another). This is God.

2 - FIRST CAUSE: Some things are caused, anything caused is caused by another, and there can't be an infinite series of causes. So there must be a first cause (a cause that isn't itself caused by another). This is God.

3 - NECESSARY BEING: Every contingent being at some time fails to exist. So if everything were contingent, then at some time there would have been nothing -- and so there would be nothing now -- which is clearly false. So not everything is contingent. So there is a necessary being. This is God.

Everything we know about the universe indicates it is uncaused. Modern physics has soundly refuted metaphysical meanderings, rendering any arguments of this nature implicitly unsound.

Christianity is on it's way out...

time + science = Crushing the christian faith, and all other religions too

the only way someone can believe this shit is to never question it

I am NOT a christian nor do I belong to any faith, I simply believe in some form of omnipotent being that created the universe ,aka GOD.
It is little wonder that the Catholic church is trying hard to expand/grow in 3rd world areas.

WRONG on all counts!!!

One, after two millenia plus, Christianity is alive and well, hardly on the way out, despite numerous claims of such by skeptics of centuries past.

Two, again, people forget about the millions of people who becomes Christians in their adult life, including those who were once atheist.

If William Murray, son of one of the most rabid, notorious atheists in history (Madalyn Murray O'Hair) can become a Christian (and a pastor), there's hope for everyone.

That quote is mind-numbingly stupid. That's like saying a woman is barren, even though she had just one child. An atheist believes that there is NO GOD. Therefore, if someone believes in ONE deity (no matter how many others in which he doesn't believe) he ain't an atheist, period.

NO it's not. It makes sense.

I take it you're a Christian? ...so you believe in Jesus. ...but you don't believe in Buddah or Allah or Zeus ... because that would go against Christianity. Therefore you are an atheist to all gods but Jesus.

If you're Muslim then you don't believe in Jesus. ...etc

This quote is so stupid because it is not plausible. You're not even being realistic. No race or other bullshit like this would ever happen.
Stop talking gibberish to make your point.

nothing we know about the universe indicates anything about causality, besides that it is real. 

physics does absolutely NOTHING beyond giving a description of natural laws within our universe... or more precisely, seemingly natural laws in the observable universe. or even more precisely, give us some kind of foundation to predict the future, based upon the past...

a limited understanding is no basis for lack of faith.

hahhaahaha this is the classic theist argument. So let me get this straight. Just because you can not think of an explanation for something you AUTOMATICALLY attribute it to god because you're too feeble minded to search for the cause or actually research it. People thought just over a hundred years ago that god made the skies blue and the grass green people thought a million things in the early 1900s were attributed to god but through hard work and research people now know the reasons why things exist...etc

Just because we don't YET know the answers to your 3 postulates does not mean that god is behind them.

It's like you taking an advanced calculus class and coming across a problem that you can't solve. You try for a week straight to find the solution...working on it day and night, and still nothing. ...so by your reasoning THIS IS GOD

a race, a prize, a father, a son, and a creator of a race.. this is implausible?  show me how this can not be so.

That's like saying, "Oh, you're childless. You don't have any kids....except for that one daughter there."

If you're Muslim then you don't believe in Jesus. ...etc

Atheists believe that there is NO God, no deity. I believe that there's ONE God. All it takes is belief in ONE, just as all I need is ONE child to be a father, not two, not ten, but just one.



Either you believe or you don't. It's just that simple. Skeptics, trying to make up such gibberish in a comical attempt to make themselves look smarter than they actually are, simply trip themselves up on this simple concept.

[Oldschool Flip]

Your parents can't determine or predetermine your faith. They can raise you with the values to which they hold dear (as would any set of parents would). But, at the end of the day, YOU make the choice on how you will follow.

Or, as the saying goes, God has no grandchildren. Lest you forget, there are MANY people who become Christians as adults, who did NOT grow up in Christian homes or with Christian parents.

While that may be, I would bet more adults are in the faith they are because of what they grew up with as children. Catholics, Mormons, Jehovahs, Muslims, Jewish, etc. usually have rites and rituals that have been followed for eons and still carry today, even though many denominations contradict each other.
If a child was raised with no electricity around them, which is true in many parts of the world, they have no knowledge or understanding of it until it's brought to them by someone who is experienced with it. Religion is no different. It's passed on by people, not by god. god hasn't talked to these people or they would be Christian, Muslim, etc.

I answered your question...Did you answer mine?Would you kill your own child if Your god told you to?
