    Seek to do your work, in such a way that Christ looks more important than your work. Seek to make and use money in such a way that Christ looks more important than money.

    seek to do your work, using your money and relationships in such a way that Christ is glorified, and Christ looks more important.

    @Sudhish86 Reason is the only tool to knowledge. Reason starts with the senses, forms concepts and integrates them in the total sum of your knowledge using logic (logic, the art of non-contradictory identification). The difference between my approach and yours is that mine is consistent with reality, yours is not. Your approach wants to deal with the super-natural, the supernatural being a simple negation of reality and by definition doesn't exist.

    For Piper, Osteen, Chandler, Hinn, and the rest of those multi-million dollar charlatans, glorifying their imaginary phantom is the greatest business of all!
    They are the worst kind of hypocrite, each and every one of them! (And the even richer ones whom I haven't named.)

    "you know things through a compulsion to believe it" So according to you, if I have a compulsion that the flying spaghetti monster exists and is more powerful than your god, it qualifies as knowledge? If I have a "compulsion" that fire doesn't burn and water isn't wet then doest it qualify as knowledge? By the way when I say "reason is the only tool of knowledge", reason contains the principle of inference, which is obviously contained in the definition I give.

  • @StrumstickJoe
    @StrumstickJoe 12 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    They're thought out? Would that qualify them?
    You seem to have a lot of opinions - I presume you publish them because you think they matter?
    When I put out that particular opinion, nobody EVER explains the error in it - they just criticise it.
    But it's true, isn't it? It clarifies what you believe and ridicules it for the nonsense it is.
    Anyway, all the best - peace on earth to all my readers.

    To hold one of the faiths, you have to believe that a nameless spirit-entity, without a physical brain, suddenly had the need to “think” into existence a material universe of unfathomable complexity and danger, solely to place for testing, on a precarious planet, procreating beings of many imperfections. To each of these beings he assigns an individual soul, which, without physical connection, dwells within its host during life, then “lives” on for eternity.
    You are joking, surely?

      Listen, friend. How does an unbeliever such as your self explain the paradox of the universe? Assuming that the Big Bang happened defies all laws of the universe. Matter can not be created or destroyed, especially not spontaneously. Spontaneous generation is impossible. This implies that the universe already did exist or it’s components already existed. Either way the laws of the universe are still broken because these had to be created as well. There is no logical explanation for the supernatural, spontaneous generation of this universe. Please don’t use the excuse that we don’t know how to study this happening or that it doesn’t matter how the universe was formed. The formation of independent matter is completely illogical and the existence of the universe defies the laws of the universe itself. This confirms the existence of an intelligent creator: the paradox of the existence of the universe. I will pray for God to enlighten you and for you to trust in him. I can provide much more proof of God, but this is just the beginning. Let me know if you desire more. God bless you

      @@henrysheep7524 Your god, and all the other gods, have had over two thousand years to 'prove' themselves. I'm afraid you have no evidence. If you did, you would be on the front page of every publication in the world.
      You might consider what kind of a bastard the god would have to be to give us this Covid; and the fires, and the droughts, and the hurricanes, and the swarms of locusts, and the earthquakes, and the terrible suffering of millions of starved, thirsty refugee children, in lands far away from your US civilisation, with its billionaire preachers, its billionaire President (thick as a brush, as we say).
      A thousand children under five die (in agony) every hour in this wonderful, blessed world.
      Thank you God!

      What was prophesied thousands of years ago in the Word of GOD is continually being fulfilled as we speak. About 2,000 of these prophecies have been perfectly fulfilled. This is what really spoke to me personally. It's undeniable truth.

      Well, I don't know.
      And neither do you.
      Nor do any of your flock.
      We will learn ever more about it from the scientists, but we will never know the whole story.
      To believe that an ancient Jewish book (compiled from fragments and scraps of crumbling papyrus, and then added to by superstitious vested interests over the centuries) can tell you anything about the world is ludicrous.
