Why doesn't God just move incoming bullets away from the car?
That really makes you think ...
>>1249128
Why bother?
Underage posters really need to leave....
Trust in Allah, but tie up your camel.

>god is a big bearded man in the sky who just wants you to have fun and kisses your boo boos
Fuck off reddit

> God exist and can do literally anything
> except if that makes my believe absurd
>>1249128
Because he helps those who help themselves.

>still thinking thousands of years of contemplating the Unknown culminates in a cartoony Santa Claus in the sky who just doesn't want you to masturbate
>still thinking divine love means parental love writ large and not an impersonal and unconditional appreciation for all existence
Like I said, fuck off reddit
>>1249334
> something can stop bullets
> must be a SANTA CLAUS
Wow, just wow.
>>1249334
>unconditional appreciation for all existence
This doesn't compute with the fact sin exists and is considered a product of disobedience to God.

Catholics.
God.
Pick one.

Spotted the muslim. (That ain't in the bible, Ahmed.)
>>1249395
>only litteral bible quotes can be used to describe how God works
>>1249403
Yup. Everything about God is in God's Word.
Not the qur'an.
>>1249411
So saying "God is cool" is wrong, because those words don't appear in that order in the bible?
>>1249389
Everything is permitted, but not everything is useful
Sin means "missing the mark". It's doing what is counterproductive to forming an authentic relationship with the ultimate nature and "identity" of the system you owe your existence to, ie God
>>1249128
>God intervening to save the whore of Babylon
Because life is an experiment and God doesn't want to nudge it too often.
>>1249301
>why isn't God my slave
>>1249431
Yes, and God is not cool.
Cool is a word they coined to make people do things they knew were wrong, like smoking, drinking, cursing, etc. Do these wrong things, and be cool.
God doesn't give a rat's ass if anyone thinks He's cool.

So how do you feel about God is amazing? That particular string of words aren't in there either.
>>1249456
> God can't save even his first trusted man
> b-b-but he will surely punish every sinner!
>>1249474
Deuteronomy 7:21 You shall not be terrified of them; for the Lord your God, the great and awesome God, is among you.
>>1249475
Adam is saved.
>>1249475
You're punished by your sin you fucking nitwit Jesus Christ it's not that fucking hard to get do you retards have any Goddamn life experience
>>1249492
> Jesus Christ can save hundred lives!
> b-b-but he can't save pope from bullets
>>1249275
You'd think that considering the interest he's taken in us, he'd want to keep his mouthpiece to the world in ship-shape.
>>1249464
You must be fun at parties.
Oh wait autists don't go to parties
>>1249502
Pope
Speaking for God
Pick one.
>>1249503
A veritable hoot at parties.
>>1249481
Doesn't include the sentence "God is amazing". Or indeed, the word 'amazing' at all.
>>1249464
Jesus's first miracle was turning water into wine at a party.
>>1249516
Yeah, so say what it does say.
>>1249569
Why? Where does it say "Thou may use no other terms to describe me, other than exact quotes from this book"
>>1249502
The divine is something infinitely more sublime than the sublimated anthropic impulse found in theistic religion. It's because this ultimate reality expresses itself at all scales.
The sustaining force of life and reality is imagined as a sourceless but nonetheless personal love to personal beings. Taoist stillness is silence, in nature and as mode of being. His power is in royalty and warriors. To even use a pronoun anthromopomorphizes god a bit too much. What holds it all together is that God is immanent in these qualities while simultaneously transcending them
