Who Made God?

OK. So the title of this thread is Who Made God? So lets discuss the "god" known as money. Do we keep chasing this fale idol? Do we stop loving and desiring it?
Or do we simply give it all away in the form of spare change? And who then do we trust to help us retire? The government?

Why do people chase any false idol, like Jesus? If we realize it's a false idol, why wouldn't we stop loving it and desiring it? That's what your false idol Jesus told you to do. The government is a representative of society. Yes, your false idol Jesus told you to take care of your society and your society will take care of you. If your government is not standing up for your society properly, it's time to do something about your government.

So arbitrator is right out? Pick a word and defend it. Or not.

You really need to stop listening to the demons in your head. The message is simple. Jesus is Gods character. He lives today. He wants to take you to the next level. Surrender to no religion or no other person or persons but surrender to Him and let Him cleanse you and equip you. Nothing evil about it.

OK, I'm sorry if I switched tracks...I get impulsive at times, but for your sake I will stick with our train of thought. Here we go...TOPIC: WHO MADE GOD? ENTER Theodoric, Stage Left: I might interject at this point that the only evidence we have is the believers themselves. Either these people(myself included) were (and are) touched and inspired by the Holy Spirit or we are batshit crazy and delusional. Willfully or otherwise. One problem here is that we are in a spiritual war between good and evil and evil makes sure that we sound as stupid as possible. Hence why some of our nuttier members are the poster children for Christian belief. That assumes that God would need to be entertained. No, Tangle He is very much intervening with all of us. Do you want evidence? I am the evidence. I bug you incessantly. The problem here is that you want to believe the research (and more tellingly the integrity of the researchers) in order to corroborate your preexisting world view. I would love to see such an encounter. I'm quite sure that God would eventually win Theodoric over to His side unless Theodoric prefers to Deify his own intelligence and preserve his free will eternally apart from what he sees as an autocratic God (and religion) You waundered in the door by joining this topic. I'll go easy on you, however. You may think im pompous and arrogant but if so, you can pray for me while you are here in church. I need all the help I can get!! I'll try and keep up. I never claimed to be perfect. My claim essentially is that God is. Anyone who believes that Jesus is a myth has cut themselves off from encountering a human mediator. In general I agree, Pressie. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. When I got saved in 1993, that was extraordinary evidence for me. For me, a null result has never been the experience in my life. I live anything but null. And as I have recently pointed out in another thread, God uses and has used a minority against a majority. It is a Biblical Theme.
Now...lets get to this argument regarding the word Arbitrator.
Arbitrator: an independent person or body officially appointed to settle a dispute.
adjudicator arbiter judge umpire referee assistant referee linesman line judge mediator conciliator intervenor intercessor go-between negotiator peacemaker
Jesus is the mediator. he arbitrator. Right. Jesus is the Creator. Through Him all things were created. So jar...do you believe that Jesus is a despot and/or a tyrant? You of course have a right to your belief. As I have a right to say you are wrong. Have i defended arbitrator adequately or not?

It isn't a belief. It's a fact that claims alone have no value. Claims have to have something to back them up. But all you're doing is saying it. That's another claim with no value. Why don't you actually think about it and explain how I'm wrong?

Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
-- A rather accurate religious meme.Christians grew some of the most evil fruits in all of human experience. Christians today continue to try to force their evil fruits down the throats of society.The only demons are the christians brainwashed into perpetrating your creeds evil.Christian is evil.

Although your argument has merit and I could argue it from both sides, I will only say for now that while most of them(us) are causing more harm than good, I will defend the minority. Lets get specific. name a few examples of specific people doing specific harm. You can even pick on those of us here at EvC.

You have a point. I think what I meant when I asserted that you were wrong is that you are wrong in ...*thinks*...in ...in....well i'm still thinking. Often times I simply shoot these posts back to you in order to carry on the argument. I even had one prepared for you but in retrospect it was simply another attempt by me to articulate why I am right. What I'm starting to realize is that me being right does not automatically make you wrong. Of course I think in these terms due to the classical way that arguments proceed.

Why wouldn't he? If you can make shit up about him so can I. So you're actually agreeing with me, he does entertain himselfwith us. So do my kids. So what. You're evidence of delusion that's all.

You do understand Phat that there are a whole universe of folk that don't have a clue what that picture is supposed to say; it's a mute and certainly not worth a thousand words.

I'll give you one. Mandate of God: White SupremacyAdd killing abortion doctors and gay folks all over the world and the beat goes on.Is this necessary? Specifics are all over the internet and I'm being lazy.Here at EvC most of us pretty much already know where each other stands. No need to go there.I should probably add this to my tagline.Christian is still evil.

How can you be so adorable and such a snake at the same time?

I don't know. I haven't seen my horoscope in a while and I've lost track of which persona I'm supposed to be.You do know personality ebbs and flows with the gravitational field lines of the solar system. I may be on the wrong side of some cycle or other.
