Nice to see Rolf Lassgård (man of Richard's left-hand side) enjoying Richard's company. You can tell he loves Dawkins' company. ^-^ ...As for the grace thing... It left me quite speechless.
I would love to see Dawkins in a bunch of Swedish debates about Islam. It's so taboo here to criticize it and nobody really wants to say anything, so it would be absolutely amazing to have this highly educated scientist kick some poor Swedish ass with his blunt honesty!
KreeZafi not really, not anymore at least, all my friends and everyone I know here in Sweden don't like Islam, doesn't mean they are personally aggressive towards Muslims
She's like a child who had her worldly view shattered. Richard tries to explain all that she does not understand. She sounded like she were about to cry, a shaking voice.
Haha this woman, what is she even trying to do. "but... what is... what is... for you, the only truth is what can be evidenced". YES! That's what he JUST talked about. When someone tried to argue against pure reason, it usually turns out to be such a forced, awkward and non-sensical question or statement. But yes, excellent interview/discussion with Richard Dawkins, he's so good at explaining his mind, and it's really awesome he explained that atheists aren't excluded from experiencing and admiring good music/art what have you. That's just absurd to think.
"Why did Bach compose music?" I wish that Linn Ullman regret even got in an argument about something she apparently do not know anything about, science.
+Ondrikus For ikke å nevne nogenlunde tilbaketrukket når det gjelder å bruke hodet. Så ganske fort at hun ble fornærmet nesten med en gang Dawkins begynte å snakke.
Also, one *can* disprove the existence of a God. It is evident that if God exists, is almighty, and is good then there would be no wars. But there are wars. Thus either God doesn't exist, isn't almighty or isn't good.
"But why did Bach compose music?" Oh, I don't know. Surely not because he grew up in a predominantly musical family and because he thus became a multi-instrumentalist at a very early age. Surely not because he studied music at a highly selective and prestigious musical school. Surely not because his entire career revolved almost exclusively around music throughout Germany. And surely not because the churches of the time were some of the richest patrons for whom you could work, so of course they'd pay good money for you to write them something that's dedicated specifically to their dogma. But religion has no monopoly over emotion or spirituality. These are inherently human attributes that do not presuppose a superhuman controlling power which actively interferes in the events of our world.
3:20 Such a stupid comment, why should it be considered "wrong" or inferior to do something for money? We live in a world that is ruled by the economy, this is not a bad thing - this is how the world continues to function, by having a stable system that binds us all together, so that you do work in exchange for currency, instead of stealing or by other means.
The trouble with the need for evidence as truth is that evidence is not always objective. Truth is often subjective. For example: Many people as former atheists have taken psychedelics and then after have sometimes given up their atheist ideas because of their profound experiences.
she's got the mental intelligence of a 12 year old and the moral intelligence of a 7 year old.

All the English ones are, I think that's because humor and charisma, etc. is hard to communicate in another language that you're not comfortable with... The Norwegian/Swedish interviews are far more relaxed and enjoyable.
If the biblical stories are true because they followed us a long time, are all stories true which follow us a long time? Are Japanese fox spirits real? Is the native American narrative of the Slayer of Alien Gods real? What about Homers work? Thats certainly around for a long time now. Are ancient Egyptian gods more real than any other story because they have been around the longest? Stellar logic is stellar.
@ 2:24 So is the lady more or less is saying "Bach wrote music inspired by God and the church and therefore god exists". As if human art and creativity is proof of there being an ultimate "creator" in form of a God (or gods) when of course it is the other way around. We created the concept of "Gods" inspired by the wonder of nature. I mean, I am surprised that people can reason like this to this day. It's not 1815, you know! But looking at the body language and the general attitude from the two ladies even before Dawkins started to speak (in the first part) you can clearly see that they are not happy by his appearance. They are very much prejudiced against him from the get go. Here comes this evil man, a not culturally accepted scientist (in contrast to us creative humanist who are into art which is "Good") who dare to question bigotry and falsehoods based on belief, that actually has done so much harm on a whole for human kind. A man that in his mostly gentle ways try to educate people about how the world really looks like. No, we shouldn't have that. Fairy tales are still "Good enough". Or "God enough".
Religious people don't like to think they're wrong because they can't imagine that they, the world and mankind have been following or believed in something completely wrong for so long, "So you're saying mankind has believed in something wrong for, for example, 2000 years? Pfft what are the chances of that? Haha...No, god must exist, we couldn't have been so wrong and stupid and foolish for so long" People created gods, spirits and such thing because they didn't have the necessary tools to prove something like "Why does it rain?" or "Where does mankind come from?". God was an answer to these questions, and then that answer stuck for some years and people thought "well we couldn't have been wrong for 5 years with this, it must be true" and then it passed to 20 years, then 100 then 500 then 2000 and now we are here...."We can't be wrong, we have always believed this and you're telling me its fake, nah that isn't possible".
Darwin's words: "I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so, the plain language of the text seems to show that men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, brother and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished, And that is a damnable doctrine." I do not want to abide in Darwin and his words, his mantra was: "Survival of the Fittest" these words are earthly, sensual, devilish and hell is behind it. There is no hope in Darwinian Evolutionary Religion only death and destruction. Those who preach evolution as a fact of science are irresponsible; as they promote immoral behaviour by the back door. There will eventually be curfews in towns and cities; this is the beginning of sorrows, but it will all end in tears at Armageddon. On the very day of this battle; the Lord Jesus Christ will descend from heaven in order to stop man; destroying himself through selfishness and greed. Jesus will settle his account with mankind, having destroyed the Antichrist and his kingdom. Jesus said, that lightning would flash across the sky from the east unto the west on the day when the Son of man is revealed I willingly abide in Jesus and his words, "Let him who hath ears to hear, let him hear" this was his mantra very often while teaching the people. Jesus made this statement because he knew that the majority were dull of hearing! Jesus warned men about speaking idle words, indicating he never spoke an idle word. Jesus said, love God with all of your heart, mind, soul, spirit and strength and love your neighbour as yourself. What an excellent moral recipe! That sounds about right to me, words of spirit and life. This is good doctrine, sound doctrine, flawless doctrine, sober doctrine etc. If the Gospel of Jesus Christ is a damnable doctrine as Darwin asserts; then where does that leave "The Origin of Species and Preservation of Favoured Races?" Kind Regards
Poor woman, nice person no doubt, but her and people like her lack logic and reasoning skills, perhaps it doesn't make them stupid intelligence wise but does limit their ability to come to rational conclusions based on evidence.
Evidence doesn't support your belief mindless things made you. You are the observable evidence of your supernatural Maker because no natural unguided mindless things can ever make any directed working part of you.
Immanuel (Jesus) has already warned us, he teaches us how and where we must pray (each as individuals) and also warns men who harm innocent and unsuspecting children… “Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves. You will recognize them by the fruits they bear.” - (Matthew 7: 15-16) - “Do not call any man on earth ‘father’; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.” - (Matthew 23: 9-10) - “Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” - (Matthew 24: 4) - “Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved” - (Matthew 24: 11-13) - “God is Spirit and those who worship him must worship him in Spirit and truth.” - (John 4: 24) - “I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” - (John 14: 6-7) - “When you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you. In your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard. Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him. This is how you should pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven, Give us today our daily bread, And forgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us. And do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one. For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever. Amen. For if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” - (Matthew 6: 6-15) - “Truly I tell you; if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” - (John 8: 51) - “Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” - (Matthew 7: 1-2) - “Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets. Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” - (Matthew 7: 12-13) - “I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe.” - (John 10: 9) - “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” - (Matthew 7: 21) - “I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and no one who is alive and has faith shall ever die.” - (John 11: 25-26) - “I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world” - (John 12: 47) - “Whoever then will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” - (Matthew 10: 32-34) - “The disciples came to Jesus and asked, ‘Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?’ He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: ‘Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, It would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!’” - (Matthew 18: 1-7) - “Where two or three gather in my name, I am there among them” - (Matthew 18: 20) - “An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” - (Matthew 22: 35-40) - “There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.” - (John 15: 13) - "Stay awake, and pray that you may be spared the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." - (Matthew 26: 41) - “And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” - (Matthew 28: 20) - “One of the criminals who hung there also mocked and taunted him: ‘Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself, and us!’ But the other criminal rebuked him. ‘Have you no fear of God? You are under the same sentence as he. For us it is plain justice; we are paying the price for our misdeeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.’ He answered, “I tell you this: today you shall be with me in Paradise.’” - (Luke 23: 39-43) - “For it is my Father’s will that everyone who looks upon the Son and puts his faith in him shall possess eternal life; and I will raise him up on the last day” - (John 6: 40) - Yours always, in true Spirit and in prayer, 2gointruth, Thursday the 16th of August, 2018: - (Matthew 5:14-16) - Every minute, hour and day can be a new beginning for any one of us: Here then are some more references to study further… - (Genesis 3: 24) - (Genesis 6: 5-6) - (Genesis 6: 11) - (Genesis 8: 21) - (Exodus 12: 17) - - (Exodus 25: 18-22) - (Leviticus 19: 18) - (Leviticus 26: 11-12) - (Deuteronomy 8: 3-4) - - (Deuteronomy 18: 18) - (Deuteronomy 29: 29) - (Joshua 22: 5) - (2 Samuel 6: 2) - - (2 Samuel 7: 12-14) - (Psalm 2: 2) - (Psalm 10: 3-7) - (Psalm 14: 1) - (Psalm 15) - - (Psalm 22) - (Psalm 66: 1) - (Proverbs 8: 17) - (Proverbs 15: 7-8) - (Isaiah 7: 14) - - (Isaiah 9: 6-7) - (Isaiah 52: 13) - (Isaiah 53) - (Isaiah 61: 1) - (Jeremiah 31: 31-34) - - (Jeremiah 47: 6-7) - (Ezekiel 28: 14-16 ) - (Daniel 7: 13-14) - (Micah 5: 4) - - (Micah 7: 6) - (Zephaniah 1: 7) - (Zechariah 9: 9) - (Zechariah 12: 10) - - (Also worth noting, are Aristotle, Confucius, Plato and Socrates, even Gandhi a humble man qualified in British Law and well-read in most all scriptures; he has also said; “You must be the change that you wish to see in the world.”) - - (Matthew 4: 19) - (Matthew 5: 10-12) - (Matthew 5:17) - (Matthew 5:19-20) - - (Matthew 5: 43-48) - (Matthew 6: 2-4) - (Matthew 7: 5) - (Matthew 7: 7-11) - - (Matthew 7: 24-27) - (Matthew 10: 32-34) - (Matthew 11: 28-30) - (Matthew 12: 30-37) - - (Matthew 23: 9-10) - (Mark 1: 9-11) - (Mark 9: 50) - (Mark 15: 4-5) - (((Luke 1: 1-4))) - - (Luke 4: 1-13) - (Luke 6: 22-36) - (Luke 6: 39) - (Luke 6: 46-49) - (Luke 9: 23-26) - - (Luke 12: 40) - (Luke 12: 48) - (John 3: 1-7) - (John 6: 51) - (John 6: 53-58) - - (John 7: 16-18) - (John 8: 12) - (John 8: 32) - (John 8: 34-35) - (John 8: 58) - - (John 10: 10-11) - (John 10: 14-17) - (John 11: 25-26) - (John 12: 25-26) - - (John 12: 44-50) - (John 13: 20) - (John 13: 34) - (John 17: 24-26) - (((John 21: 24-25))) -
God is real, and he is a result of high intellegence, good morals, and a divine connection to your unconcious. He can be summoned thoroughly by people who possess these traits. He is not an entity, just our survival instinct; he is not an exterior force, he exists in our brains. People who have gotten revelations, are people with Schizophrenia, who possess these traits. Examples are Muhammed, Buddha, and Jesus.
The Supreme Originator of the seven heaven's and earth sent Prophet's and Messenger's starting from Adam to the seal and final Prophet Muhammad with one main message to the nation's and people that is they bear witness to there is no true God worthy of being worshipped except Allaah Exalted and Most High! Jesus was a Messenger of Allaah and his name was Eesa ibn Mariam known as Jesus son of Mary. The Qur'an is a confirmation of what came before it and is the real speech uncreated from the Lord of the universe glorified is he indeed everyone. Kindest regards from Sageer Alam from heart.

+Riri Airi And why does she even bring up Bach? Like that's supposed to prove god or something?
Calm down. Like you've never seen religious people before. Yes, they're wrong, but losing your mind about it is just going to make YOU look bad.
Richard Dawkins is such an inspiring person.
The Bach argument was the stupidest thing I heard all year.
but why did Bach compose music?
HERE WE GO AGAIN. :/
What a segway
Such a ridiculous argument
i stopped the video right at that moment to read the comments and i think im gonna leave now, laters!
This is the kind of argument they always give.
Because he loved to do it.
I believe more and more people will join you Richard as the years go on.
i LOLED so hard when that crazy lady asked why Bach composed music
You can tell Dawkins is experienced in dealing with these sorts of arguments by how efficiently he responds to them.
he's heard it all by this point
Trolls are real because i feel it in my heart. I don't need evidence, because i have trolls.
Not only that lady is stupid, but her face expressions are hilarious and crazy 😂
Vem ÄR den där damen?! Det var det pinsammaste jag sett på länge.
I would love to see Dawkins in a bunch of Swedish debates about Islam. It's so taboo here to criticize it and nobody really wants to say anything, so it would be absolutely amazing to have this highly educated scientist kick some poor Swedish ass with his blunt honesty!

You may not like it if you believe in any god, because what Dawkins may have to say about Islam is alsovalid for all other beliefs.
haha, classic Dawkins, he's a sympathetic fellow for the most part
She's like a child who had her worldly view shattered.
Richard tries to explain all that she does not understand.
She sounded like she were about to cry, a shaking voice.
“God doesn’t exist”
“But why did Bach compose music then?”
What?
Haha this woman, what is she even trying to do. "but... what is... what is... for you, the only truth is what can be evidenced". YES! That's what he JUST talked about. When someone tried to argue against pure reason, it usually turns out to be such a forced, awkward and non-sensical question or statement.
But yes, excellent interview/discussion with Richard Dawkins, he's so good at explaining his mind, and it's really awesome he explained that atheists aren't excluded from experiencing and admiring good music/art what have you. That's just absurd to think.
how many countless times does dawkins have to make the same points.
That one woman who brought up Bach was really confused.
The world would be a better place if more people were like Richard Dawkins.
what a contrast...a great mind [Dawkins] open and rational/reasoned and sensitive vs. blond 'god'zilla who said nothing at all.
Well said Richard.
Dawkins är alltid den förnuftiga personen i rummet. Och stort tack för det.

Yakamaru Ja, det var veldig tydelig.
Richard Dawkins is an amazing man.
Bach composed music because he was good at it and liked it.
Also, one *can* disprove the existence of a God. It is evident that if God exists, is almighty, and is good then there would be no wars. But there are wars. Thus either God doesn't exist, isn't almighty or isn't good.
Ifrågasätt forskaren som sysslat med sitt hela livet, nej det måste ju vara fel för jag har läst det i en bok.
That woman in the black is absolutely horrible
That woman made me cringe.
"But why did Bach compose music?"
Oh, I don't know. Surely not because he grew up in a predominantly musical family and because he thus became a multi-instrumentalist at a very early age. Surely not because he studied music at a highly selective and prestigious musical school. Surely not because his entire career revolved almost exclusively around music throughout Germany. And surely not because the churches of the time were some of the richest patrons for whom you could work, so of course they'd pay good money for you to write them something that's dedicated specifically to their dogma.
But religion has no monopoly over emotion or spirituality. These are inherently human attributes that do not presuppose a superhuman controlling power which actively interferes in the events of our world.
whos the woman in with short hair?
Dawkins is good at picking opponents. You would never see him debating Michael Behe for example
Even if there is a god I still want nothing to do with him.
3:20 Such a stupid comment, why should it be considered "wrong" or inferior to do something for money? We live in a world that is ruled by the economy, this is not a bad thing - this is how the world continues to function, by having a stable system that binds us all together, so that you do work in exchange for currency, instead of stealing or by other means.

The trouble with the need for evidence as truth is that evidence is not always objective. Truth is often subjective. For example: Many people as former atheists have taken psychedelics and then after have sometimes given up their atheist ideas because of their profound experiences.

"it's all about finding the truth to making it up."
that sentence doesn't even make any sense. but i will forgive her because it is not her first language, so i will try to interpret her.
i think what she believes is that anything can be true if you make it up, and that this is okay.
"Yeah Dawkins, what do YOU mean by 'grace' huh? Check mate, Atheist!! God exists."
Blondie: "@ 2:24 "Why did Bach compose music"?
Me: LOL, maybe Bach was so smart, like many religitards today, that he knew there was a market for pipe organ music???
watch?v=ho9rZjlsyYY
I think Prof. Dawkins should have answered her with yet another great composer.
Dawkins : "Why did W. A. Mozart (born and baptized in the Holy Roman Empire) make music"?
If Bach was inspired by divinity and Dracula, why were sex, alcohol and whoring Mozart's?
From part1 I knew, and by her facial expressions, that she was gonna ask a dumb question.
Omg let him speak woman !!! We re interested in what RD has to say he is the guest here. That petty argument wasted precious minutes to us.
People made incredible art long before the modern religions, people used to sacrifice humans , doesnt mean sacrificing humans produces good art. People believed all kinds of nonsense doesnt mean believing in nonsense produces the art.
Wow. Is she serious?
Why are people who believe in a religious "God" so insistent and desperate that others should do the same? And some are willing to kill / punish other people in defense of their "God" (which is really their ego).
I would regard myself as a spiritual person in that I believe I am a part of forces bigger than myself - Nature, the Universe, God, whatever you want to call it - but I don't try to impose that unto other people.
I just care that people are kind and considerate of other people.
It is easy to go along with the belief systems of the majority (and never think for yourself), but it takes a lot of courage for someone like Richard Dawkins to speak the way he does based on science. 👍🏾👍🏾
God clearly exists because Bach made music.
Wonder if Dawkins mistook the word "fairy" for something else. To me it sounded like Skavlan called Rolf Lassgård gay/or homosexual. Funny.
Who the hell is that woman?
What the fuck kind of question is that.... why did Bach compose music?
Smashed the lady....
Interviews in this tv show are always so stiff and cringy.
All the English ones are, I think that's because humor and charisma, etc. is hard to communicate in another language that you're not comfortable with... The Norwegian/Swedish interviews are far more relaxed and enjoyable.
If the biblical stories are true because they followed us a long time, are all stories true which follow us a long time? Are Japanese fox spirits real? Is the native American narrative of the Slayer of Alien Gods real? What about Homers work? Thats certainly around for a long time now. Are ancient Egyptian gods more real than any other story because they have been around the longest? Stellar logic is stellar.
There is a fundamentalist bent to the definition of "evidence."
@ 2:24 So is the lady more or less is saying "Bach wrote music inspired by God and the church and therefore god exists".
As if human art and creativity is proof of there being an ultimate "creator" in form of a God (or gods) when of course it is the other way around.
We created the concept of "Gods" inspired by the wonder of nature.
I mean, I am surprised that people can reason like this to this day. It's not 1815, you know!
But looking at the body language and the general attitude from the two ladies even before Dawkins started to speak (in the first part) you can clearly see that they are not happy by his appearance. They are very much prejudiced against him from the get go.
Here comes this evil man, a not culturally accepted scientist (in contrast to us creative humanist who are into art which is "Good") who dare to question bigotry and falsehoods based on belief, that actually has done so much harm on a whole for human kind.
A man that in his mostly gentle ways try to educate people about how the world really looks like.
No, we shouldn't have that. Fairy tales are still "Good enough". Or "God enough".
she is so cringeeeee
Religious people don't like to think they're wrong because they can't imagine that they, the world and mankind have been following or believed in something completely wrong for so long, "So you're saying mankind has believed in something wrong for, for example, 2000 years? Pfft what are the chances of that? Haha...No, god must exist, we couldn't have been so wrong and stupid and foolish for so long"
People created gods, spirits and such thing because they didn't have the necessary tools to prove something like "Why does it rain?" or "Where does mankind come from?". God was an answer to these questions, and then that answer stuck for some years and people thought "well we couldn't have been wrong for 5 years with this, it must be true" and then it passed to 20 years, then 100 then 500 then 2000 and now we are here...."We can't be wrong, we have always believed this and you're telling me its fake, nah that isn't possible".
Darwin's words: "I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so, the plain language of the text seems to show that men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, brother and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished, And that is a damnable doctrine." I do not want to abide in Darwin and his words, his mantra was: "Survival of the Fittest" these words are earthly, sensual, devilish and hell is behind it. There is no hope in Darwinian Evolutionary Religion only death and destruction. Those who preach evolution as a fact of science are irresponsible; as they promote immoral behaviour by the back door. There will eventually be curfews in towns and cities; this is the beginning of sorrows, but it will all end in tears at Armageddon. On the very day of this battle; the Lord Jesus Christ will descend from heaven in order to stop man; destroying himself through selfishness and greed. Jesus will settle his account with mankind, having destroyed the Antichrist and his kingdom. Jesus said, that lightning would flash across the sky from the east unto the west on the day when the Son of man is revealed
I willingly abide in Jesus and his words, "Let him who hath ears to hear, let him hear" this was his mantra very often while teaching the people. Jesus made this statement because he knew that the majority were dull of hearing! Jesus warned men about speaking idle words, indicating he never spoke an idle word. Jesus said, love God with all of your heart, mind, soul, spirit and strength and love your neighbour as yourself. What an excellent moral recipe! That sounds about right to me, words of spirit and life. This is good doctrine, sound doctrine, flawless doctrine, sober doctrine etc. If the Gospel of Jesus Christ is a damnable doctrine as Darwin asserts; then where does that leave "The Origin of Species and Preservation of Favoured Races?" Kind Regards
this is way too short, as soon as people try to say something
Not worthy of him honestly.
Poor woman, nice person no doubt, but her and people like her lack logic and reasoning skills, perhaps it doesn't make them stupid intelligence wise but does limit their ability to come to rational conclusions based on evidence.
She got done over, sorry i can't add anything intelligent just saying what i seen
Evidence doesn't support your belief mindless things made you. You are the observable evidence of your supernatural Maker because no natural unguided mindless things can ever make any directed working part of you.

Immanuel (Jesus) has already warned us, he teaches us how and where we must pray (each as individuals) and also warns men who harm innocent and unsuspecting children…
“Beware of false prophets, men who come to you dressed up as sheep while underneath they are savage wolves. You will recognize them by the fruits they bear.” - (Matthew 7: 15-16) -
“Do not call any man on earth ‘father’; for you have one Father and he is in heaven. Nor must you be called ‘teacher’; you have one Teacher, the Messiah.” - (Matthew 23: 9-10) -
“Take care that no one misleads you: For many will come claiming my name…” - (Matthew 24: 4) -
“Many false prophets will arise, and will mislead many; and as lawlessness spreads, men’s love for one another will grow cold. But the man who holds out to the end will be saved” - (Matthew 24: 11-13) -
“God is Spirit and those who worship him must worship him in Spirit and truth.” - (John 4: 24) -
“I am the way; I am the truth and I am life; no one comes to the Father except by me. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” - (John 14: 6-7) -
“When you pray, go into a room by yourself, and shut the door. Pray to your Father who is there in the secret place; and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.
In your prayers do not go babbling on like the heathen, who imagine that the more they say the more likely they are to be heard.
Do not imitate them. Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him.
This is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
Your kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven,
Give us today our daily bread,
And forgive us the wrong we have done, as we have forgiven those who have wronged us.
And do not bring us to the test, but save us from the evil one.
For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever.
Amen.
For if you forgive others the wrongs they have done, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you do not forgive others, then the wrongs you have done will not be forgiven by your Father.” - (Matthew 6: 6-15) -
“Truly I tell you; if anyone obeys my teaching he shall never know what it is to die.” - (John 8: 51) -
“Pass no judgement, and you will not be judged. For as you judge others, so you will yourselves be judged, and whatever measure you deal out to others will be dealt back to you.” - (Matthew 7: 1-2) -
“Always treat others as you would like them to treat you: that is the Law and the Prophets.
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life and only a few find it.” - (Matthew 7: 12-13) -
“I am the gate; anyone who comes into the fold through me shall be safe.” - (John 10: 9) -
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” - (Matthew 7: 21) -
“I am the resurrection and I am life. If a man has faith in me, even though he dies, he shall come to life; and no one who is alive and has faith shall ever die.” - (John 11: 25-26) -
“I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world”
- (John 12: 47) -
“Whoever then will acknowledge me before men, I will acknowledge him before my Father in heaven; and whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” - (Matthew 10: 32-34) -
“The disciples came to Jesus and asked, ‘Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?’ He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: ‘Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.
If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, It would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!’” - (Matthew 18: 1-7) -
“Where two or three gather in my name, I am there among them” - (Matthew 18: 20) -
“An expert in the law, [a leading religious Pharisee] tested him with this question: ‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ He answered, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind. That is the greatest commandment. It comes first. The second is like it: Love your neighbour as yourself. Everything in the Law and the Prophets hangs on these two commandments.’” - (Matthew 22: 35-40) -
“There is no greater love than this, that a man should lay down his life for his friends.”
- (John 15: 13) -
"Stay awake, and pray that you may be spared the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." - (Matthew 26: 41) -
“And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.” - (Matthew 28: 20) -
“One of the criminals who hung there also mocked and taunted him: ‘Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself, and us!’ But the other criminal rebuked him. ‘Have you no fear of God? You are under the same sentence as he. For us it is plain justice; we are paying the price for our misdeeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.’ And he said, ‘Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.’ He answered, “I tell you this: today you shall be with me in Paradise.’” - (Luke 23: 39-43) -
“For it is my Father’s will that everyone who looks upon the Son and puts his faith in him shall possess eternal life; and I will raise him up on the last day” - (John 6: 40) -

Who is that gorgeous beautiful lady, wow, she is really interesting even quite.
Lady in red clothing?
Triggered.
God is real, and he is a result of high intellegence, good morals, and a divine connection to your unconcious. He can be summoned thoroughly by people who possess these traits. He is not an entity, just our survival instinct; he is not an exterior force, he exists in our brains.
People who have gotten revelations, are people with Schizophrenia, who possess these traits. Examples are Muhammed, Buddha, and Jesus.
True Spirit is God. Mean-spirit and dishonesty is Man. What sensible man (in his right mind) would talk of "Hob-Goblins" and "Tooth-Fairies"?
The Supreme Originator of the seven heaven's and earth sent Prophet's and Messenger's starting from Adam to the seal and final Prophet Muhammad with one main message to the nation's and people that is they bear witness to there is no true God worthy of being worshipped except Allaah Exalted and Most High! Jesus was a Messenger of Allaah and his name was Eesa ibn Mariam known as Jesus son of Mary. The Qur'an is a confirmation of what came before it and is the real speech uncreated from the Lord of the universe glorified is he indeed everyone.
