good, you recognize your regular rhetoric. Where you got this one.? This line would be more appropriate in my previous post.
Look, Zero At least theists admit that they don't have all the answers, Zero, and must rely on faith and pretense. This, of course, as opposed to the ignorant atheists who choose to lie in a desperate effort to hide their stupidity and irrational fear. Why do you worry so much about something that doesn't exist, Zero, that all you can do is be a hater? I mean come on, by the time you get down to rubber-glue, Zero, I think the neo-Nazis have a couple of IQ points on you. Look at you, Zero. All you seem to want to do is hate. My advice is to look in a mirror and ask yourself why you hate what you hate so much, and then stop to think if what you hate is really what you think you hate, and not the image you see in the mirror. I didn't realize that your user name referred both to your human compassion as well as your intelligence quotient and potential contribution to the world. Dude, of course religions are problematic. But as long as you keep wanking around like Bozo the Hater, that's all you're going to be worth. And frankly, slit wrists are worth more. Take responsibility for your own self, Zero. Make a contribution to the world for a change. :m:, Tiassa Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Everneo, I spent some time looking further at this, but without more details it is very difficult to see this as any more than hilarious. The idea of an obedient or angry god throwing thunderbolts is straight out of ancient mythology and superstition. I think you need to lightning up a bit. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Now if you can show that this freak event is reproducible, e.g. by showing other preachers calling on god and receiving similar bolts then perhaps you could make a case for cause and effect, but I couldn’t find anything on the web remotely like that.
Humor, indeed This entire topic was intended for comic relief. I guess I should have put a serious disclaimer under my sarcasm. (However, I'm aware of the trend to which Everneo refers; it just seems like a point for a different discussion.) :m:, Tiassa Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Whatchutalkinbout? The Atheists are embracing the issue. It's pure comedy bud, and we're just taking the stage and goin' for round 2. Out of curiosity, has anybody ever mistaken you for an oversized pineapple?
Everyone knows thounderbolts are not thrown out by an angry or obedient(?) God or mythological deities. The preacher was emphasizing penance and repeating what else to say more. And there comes this natural visitor with irony. Any faithful would take this as a messenger unless he gets precise explanation. For him its not required to believe a more elaborate message like few angels with wings appear and praising the God. A reasonably faithful at that congregation would see the whole episode with amusment and wonder at God's typical way of opertaions. Unless i have an obedient/oblidging God i can't think of it ; even Jesus could not dare to do that. Another thing is if i repeatedly test God to prove for the sake of unbelievers He might direct the lightnging on me rather than on the steeple. You expect too much from God.

evernipple nawww. I actually thought you were Sir Syphilis of the Clap. I was only expressing my concern that others might interpret you as an oversized pineapple.
Syphilis, Clap, Gonorrhea, pineapple... do i read a desperate GOD hating young fag with AIDS and ....
ok ok... no more ad-hominemineminem But... I just wanted to point out the result's of my little ink-blotch experiment. Apparently the words: "Oversized Pineapple" "Syphilis" "Clap" equate to: "a desperate GOD hating young fag with AIDS" in the mind of at least one 'believing' individual. The article that Tiassa posted shows a similar type of association. Preacher gets an electric shock; therefore, it must be 'God'. I am willing to bet if the preacher caught on fire and died, the event would have been associated with the 'Devil'.
Re: ok ok... no more ad-hominem eminem Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! amazing equation. i just shoved back your BS from where it came. I didn't start the ad-hominem and started justifying with some bloke experiment.. go on kiddie.. Linking your ad-hominem BS with the 'article Tiasssa posted' does not show your rational thinking. For your information if the preacher got electrocuted the faithfuls at that congregation would think something wrong with the preacher, not the work of Devil. My point was not on the story. But the attitude of irrational atheists like you.
Just think. If it weren't for irrational atheists like me, this world would be a mass of acceptance without proof. There would be faith ridden religions all over the place claiming the fantastically supernatural, all the while not being in any agreement with eacch other. Oh wait... thats the way it is now. My bad. -A good scientist always checks the sock drawr for Unicorns.
