Candle3 writes: Since you condemn God for killing, do you also condemnthose who kill babies in their mother's womb. It has nothing to do with me. I don't believe in God, so why would I condemn and entity that I don't believe in? I am holding God to the standard of those who believe, which would be you. If you believe that abortion doctors are wrong for killing babies, then you should think the same of God.
What God takes He can give back. Humans who take life cannot do so. Were Egyptian parents given their first born back?
I trust God. And, I trust His judgements. I don't doubt that. What the rest of us find contradictory is the moral double standards inherent in Christian theology. In this instance, you claim to believe in a loving God who kills peoples' children because a pharaoh won't free a specific set of people. That doesn't add up.

Taq, you, as well as other so-called atheists, spend an ungodly
amount of time speaking of a "Being" that you don't believe in. Romans 1:19-20 states that God's creation is proof of Hisexistence. His existence is so obvious that those who deny Him are without excuse. God does not allow His followers to kill others. He does notallow us to hate others, or to steal from them. He forbids us from harboring animosity towards our fellow humans. The world's problems, and they are many, are not a result ofkeeping God's Holy Laws and Commandments. Do some so-called men of God twist God's laws to fit their ownagendas? Yes, but they do not speak for God. You asked "Were Egyptian parents given their first born back?" No! But God has promised to do so in the 2nd resurrection. Those returned to life in the 2nd resurrection will be resurrectedas flesh and blood, mortal humans. They will then be taught God's laws. They will also have accessto God's Holy Spirit. Once they develop God's character (it will in most instances take years) they will be converted to spirit beings. They will be adopted into the family of God. The Egyptians who God killed do not deserve this great giftfrom God. No one deserves to become members of the God family. It is the greatest gift imaginable. It is the gift of a loving God. The dead Egyptians are unaware of the passage of time. Whenthey are resurrected it will be to them that no time has passed since they died. The Egyptians worshipped many gods. The 10 plaguestargeted 10 of their gods. God showed both the Egyptians and Israelites that their gods were powerless against Him. The magicians, Jannes and Jambres, were able to turn theirstaffs into serpents by the power of Satan. The 10 Egyptian Gods were demons. The showdown with pharaoh has great significance once thepurpose of it is understood.

Romans 1:19-20 states that God's creation is proof of His existence. His existence is so obvious that those who deny Him are without excuse. A religion who thinks people are wrong for not believing as they do. Shocking!!
God does not allow His followers to kill others. Have you read the Old Testament? God not only allows people to kill others, he commanded it.
quote: The world's problems, and they are many, are not a result of keeping God's Holy Laws and Commandments. God commanded his people to participate in chattel slavery. It is throughout the Old Testament.
You asked "Were Egyptian parents given their first born back?" No! But God has promised to do so in the 2nd resurrection. Those parents have been dead for thousands of years.
The Egyptians who God killed do not deserve this great gift from God. 2 year old children do not deserve what? Do children also deserve to be slaves and the property of others simply because they were born into it?

Taq: you stated:
"A religion who thinks people are wrong for not believing asthey do. Shocking!!!" ***Well I'll be; the pot calling the kettle black. Evolutionists onthis board attack those who see evolution as a fairy tale. A ridiculous tale of a frog turning into a prince. Evolutionists believe in a concept that is not supported by facts. *No fossils that support their belief (faith). *No known way to explain the origin of matter. They cannotexplain it by relying on God, or a god, because they would then have to concede that God could have created all life (forms). *No known way for life to have come from non-life (faith). *No thorough concept of how one species evolved intoother species (faith). *Evolutionists believe that that all diversity on earth is theresult of mutations and natural selection. Because of their deep faith in evolution they fail to u/s that mutations are a result of loss of information, not gain. This would be similar to a gambler losing all his money but claiming to have won. *They also fail to u/s that natural selection can only selectfrom what is available. NS cannot select from a gene pool and DNA that is not in it's makeup. *Evolutionists believe that nature is conscious, and that itselects traits that it wants, much like a diner in a smorgasbord. I'll take this, and one of them. *Evolutionists cannot replicate what they believe;therefore, they must have faith that what they BELIEVE in is right. By the same lack of logic, they must also believe that iron has the properties that can preserve blood, veins, collagen, soft tissue, etc for tens of millions of years. Talk about faith. I could go on, and on, and on, but evolutionists would stillhave the ability to believe what the want to believe. You wrote: "Those parents have been dead for thousandsof years. ***Correct, and you will also die. We all die. It does not matterhow long one is dead, the individual will be be resurrected back to physical life. In the resurrection both parent and child will see each other,and both will be given the opportunity for eternal life. Only a loving and generous God would offer this greatest ofopportunity to a mere human. Jeremiah 31:34; 1 Timothy 2:4; and 2 Peter 3:9 are just a few of themany verses that prove loves us all the same. He in not a respecter of persons. He gives everyone who has ever lived the opportunity to become members of the God family, ant to receive eternal life. But we do not all receive our opportunity at the same time. Some receiveit during this present age; some receive it in the Kingdom of God; the remainder receive it in the second resurrection. And don't pretend that you care about children when you haveno problem with 1.3 million of them being killed in America every year.

"A religion who thinks people are wrong for not believing as they do. Shocking!!!" ***Well I'll be; the pot calling the kettle black. Evolutionists onthis board attack those who see evolution as a fairy tale. A ridiculous tale of a frog turning into a prince. Again you interject your lies about evolution in a "reply" to a message (Taq, Message 63) which made no mention of evolution! And we are not "attacking" you for being so willfully stupid that you have no clue whatsoever about anything to do with evolution (all you "know" are the flood of lies that your religion of lies has told you), but rather because you are so zealous in spreading those lies despite the repeated refutation of those lies. Refutations that you just run away from and then lie that they don't exist. Indeed, your lies have been exposed to you so many times that your repeating of your lies constitutes DELIBERATE LYING. So you are not being "attacked" for being so abysmally stupid, but rather because you are such an insufferable lying piece-of-shit asshole. You falsely accuse Taq of "the pot calling the kettle black", when you yourself are committing the sin of "the pot calling the SILVERWARE black." Meaning that you are claiming a false equivalence, saying that your opponent is just as bad as you are, when you are instead LYING OUT OF YOUR ASS about your opponent. You are fractally wrong:
quote: Now yet again I will refute your same old stupid lies. Not for your benefit, since you will never even bother to read them (your fucking stupid POS phone "is too small to read anything"), but rather for the benefit of everybody who will read these messages, so that they will know how stupid your lies are. Before I begin, the basis of Candle3's lies is his willful ignorance which he works hard to maintain, hence his determined resistance to learning anything. He has no idea what evolution is nor how it works, but rather he has this made-up misrepresentation that has nothing to do with evolution despite him falsely calling it "evolution". Ask him what he thinks evolution is or how it works and he cannot answer because he doesn't know. Ask him why "evolution" (ie, his misunderstanding of it) would conflict with God and he cannot answer because he doesn't know. He doesn't know anything except for the lies that creationists have taught him through his church. IOW, he has been fed nothing but lies so he passes those lies forward. He has been fed nothing but bullshit so now he is become bullshit, the spewer of lies; Man ist was man ißt (German: "You are what you eat.")
*No fossils that support their belief (faith). He knows nothing about the fossil record. The fossil record is very extensive, filling entire sections of university libraries with journals filled with detailed descriptions. I have talked with ex-creationists whose deconversion from creationism started with their having stumbled into one of those sections. Candle3's argument is simply a statement of his own ignorance.
*No known way to explain the origin of matter. They cannot explain it by relying on God, or a god, because they would then have to concede that God could have created all life (forms). The origin of matter has nothing whatsoever to do with evolution. You may as well refute football by complaining that it fails to explain the origin of matter. Evolution is about the operation and development of life, not about the origin of matter or the universe, etc. Other disciplines cover those questions. Candle3 doesn't know what evolution is and so again bears witness to his own ignorance. Also, a god having created life would pose no problem for evolution, just as evolution poses no problem with an actual creator. Regardless of how life started, once it came into existence it started to evolve. Evolution is the natural consequences of life doing what life does and that would be true completely independent on how life originated. Candle3 is just too willfully stupid to realize or accept that.
*No known way for life to have come from non-life (faith). We have made much progress in that research. Each of the long sequence of events have been found occur naturally and to do so very readily. Candle3 is yet again just bearing witness to his own ignorance. Part of his problem is that he has a very distorted false notion (not even the faintest hint of the possibility of an idea) of what life-from-nonlife would entail; basically he couldn't recognize it if it came up and bit him on a very sensitive part of his body.
*No thorough concept of how one species evolved into other species (faith). Candle3 has no concept, but evolution has studied the question thoroughly. Indeed, Candle3 has a completely false notion as indicated by his repeated use of the extremely stupid creationist canard of "evolution says a dog gave birth to kittens." Not only does that have nothing to do with evolution, but if such a thing were to happen then that would actually disprove evolution ... and biology. If that is an example of what he demands must be demonstrated as how a new species evolves, then of course he will never see it. His willful stupidity does not disprove evolution.
*Evolutionists believe that that all diversity on earth is the result of mutations and natural selection. Because of their deep faith in evolution they fail to u/s that mutations are a result of loss of information, not gain. This would be similar to a gambler losing all his money but claiming to have won. Candle3 knows nothing about mutations, let alone the different kinds of mutation and what they do. Plus he depends on creationist misunderstanding and lies about information theory, which they use to confuse and deceive their audiences. First, the defintions of "mutation" are broad and include kinds of mutation that play absolutely no part in evolution: The only mutations that play any role in evolution must be both genetic and inheritable. So a physical mutation caused by external factors (environmental mutagens) during development would not apply since the genome wasn't affected, rather it was the expression of its genes that got thrown out of whack. A genetic mutation in a body cell (somatic) would not be heritable and hence would play no role in evolution, but rather might cause a cancer. Only a genetic mutation in a germline cell (eg, spermazoon, ovum) would result in a germline mutation that could be inherited by the next generation and could play any kind of role in evolution. Basic high-school biology. Which nonetheless flies way over Candle3's head. Here's a reference to Wikipedia on Classification of types of mutations. For example, in a duplication mutation, an extra copy of a gene is created, which increases the amount of information in the genome. If a base substitution occurs, then that creates a new animo acid sequence which would also add more information. Most base substitutions are neutral, changing nothing (or almost nothing) in the gene's expression (at least half the amino acids in a protein are purely structural such that their locus could be filled by any amino acid), but some can change the protein. BTW, a deliterious mutation that negatively affects the organism's ability to survive will be weeded out by that organism not surviving to produce offspring. Thus, a bad mutation would not be expected to make it to the second generation. So mutations can indeed increase information. Candle3 is just being a willful idiot.
*They also fail to u/s that natural selection can only select from what is available. NS cannot select from a gene pool and DNA that is not in it's makeup. Here he contradicts himself. In the previous lie he was slightly correct about natural selection's role working with increasing genetic variation, but here he turns around and claims that natural selection must work alone. That's the problem with lying about everything: it becomes impossible to keep your stories straight. Also, he displays his ignorance of basic genetics from high school biology: the difference between genotypes and phenotypes and how the genotype is expressed in the phenotype and it is the phenotype that natural selection acts upon. How has Candle3 lived so long and avoided learning anything?
*Evolutionists believe that nature is conscious, and that it selects traits that it wants, much like a diner in a smorgasbord. I'll take this, and one of them. OK, maybe we can't really blame Candle3 for this one, since he ]is a literalist. He doesn't understand that using anthropomorphic language does not indicate actual anthropomorpism. Again, he only proves to us what a willful idiot he is that he also doesn't understand how language is used. So sad. Also, it is important that we avoid anthropomorphizing things. They hate it when we do that.
*Evolutionists cannot replicate what they believe; therefore, they must have faith that what they BELIEVE in is right. WTF is he talking about? Here Candle3 is pushing creationism's gross misunderstanding and misrepresentation of what science is and how it works. Basically, scientists try to figure out how something works. In order to test their ideas they construct and perform experiments. It is those experiments that others must be able to replicate, not the phenomenon being studied. Consider the impracticality of having to reproduce in the lab the fusion reaction taking place in the center of the sun. It is extremely stupid to demand that the sun's fusion reaction must be reproduced in the lab or else our knowledge of how the sun works is nothing but "blind faith."
By the same lack of logic, they must also believe that iron has the properties that can preserve blood, veins, collagen, soft tissue, etc for tens of millions of years. Talk about faith. Here he is referring to his constant lies about the work of Dr. Mary Schweitzer which continue unabated. Message 2943 (18-Sep-2023) is one of my many replies to his repeated lies (go to that message for an embedded video of an interview with Dr. Schweitzer and an examination of the "soft dinosaur claim"):
dwise1 writes: [Candle3, y]ou keep misrepresenting Dr. Mary Schweitzer's work. She never did find neither soft tissues nor blood cells. She doesn't know what the fuck you creationists are talking about, but she is really pissed off at you assholes for lying about her work. Remember, she used to be a young-earth creationist herself and started working on her PhD Biology in order to learn more to use against evolution. Instead, she learned that creationists had been lying to her all along. And now they are lying even more, but this time about her and her work. What she did find was that there is much more involved in fossilization than was previously thought. She did find fossilized remains of soft tissue and blood vessels, but not the original tissue and vessels. She had to soak that in an acid bath in order to remove the minerals which rendered the sample flexible. And she was able to find trace collagen, which is more durable than many proteins. Also, that was found inside a femur, which would have protected the original tissue longer, much like insect tissue can be preserved longer in amber or "green fossil" leaves can be preserved much longer when sealed in mud (such that the phylogenetic tree of those species of tree could be constructed by the evolution of its proteins). His two "replies" were just refusals to even look at the truth and then change the subject.
I could go on, and on, and on, but evolutionists would still have the ability to believe what the want to believe. Whatever the fuck an "evolutionist" is supposed to be. That's just creationist gobblety-gook. But scientists trust their understanding of how nature works based on the evidence. Rather, it is the creationists who will believe what they want to believe regardless of the evidence and in spite of the evidence. I sincerely implore Candle3 to cease his stupid lies about evolution. Sadly, he never will.

Don’t forget that Candle3 thinks that a bunch of centenarian Nazis are suddenly going to pop up out of hiding and restore the Holy Roman Empire. Which was formally dissolved more than 200 years ago.

Many in Europe think back on the HRE and the effect it had onthe world. Many of them would like to see it. It gives Europe a sense of destiny, of purpose. It is quite comical when one has no idea who or what theseven headed, Scarlet colored, beast is, nor the harlot who rides the beast, they criticize those who do. The President of Germany, Steinmeier dissolved parliamentto pave way for snap elections on February 23 following the collapse of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's three way coalition. The leader on the seventh head will be a German. And thisindividual will gain the Chancellorship through flatteries, not as a result of an election. The President will appoint him, with the backing of otherprominent politicians. If this does not happen this round, it will happen soon after.There is no doubt that it will happen though. There is one man who fits all that the Bible says of this endtime ruler. Trump and this man would not get along.

Paulk, Trump is for Americans. Illegal immigrants (II) are not
Americans. I have no qualm about helping others, but not the way Democrats have been doing it. Illegals have been released from prisons in these countries.They have been rounded up and sent here. They come here and are given cell phones, food vouchers,prepaid credit cards, free schooling and medical. They are housed in expensive hotels and motels. They can commit heinous crimes and they will be releasedback into the public. No one can justify this. It is done for several reasons. One ofwhich is to gather votes for the Democratic candidates. The point is that Trump is for Americans and American interests.Trump will have other nations going along with American interests. The other man will do the same for Germany. There is alreadya division between the U.S. and Germany. 75% of Americans favor a relationship with Germany. But amere 25% of Germans are reciprocal. When Trump pushes them into paying more for NATO, and inraising tariffs to the same level that they put on us, the division will grow To know what is going to happen to countries today it is vitalto know who they are in prophecy.

quote: Yes, I understand that Trump supporters are liars who want a racist dictatorship,
quote: So what you are saying is that their only real disagreement is that they’ll be looking after the interests of their own countries. How is that different from Putin and Kim?
quote: Which is why you thought that gariatric Nazis would somehow recreate the Holy Roman Empire ignoring the facts it is impossible. No, worshipping your idol’s interpretations of prophecy is not going to tell you anything about future events. Especially when they make up nonsense to avoid admitting that they got it wrong.

The fact is that you have no idea about theorigin of matter. You do not get the benefit of ooze in a murky pond in whichlife came about. You must first explain how the material came to be. You must also explain how the law that life cannot come fromnon-life was breached. I know the answers to these questions. Also, Schweitzer did find blood cells and soft tissue in asupposedly 75,000,000 T-Rex fossil. But, she is not the only who has done so. I am not about to list them all; you would only call them liars,or insist that they are mistaken. However, Maidment and Bertazoo found nucleus of red bloodcells and amino acid that make up collagen in 75,000,000 year old fossils of what they believe to be from a triceratops, a duck-billed dino; and, a carnivorous theropod. Curators will not allow pieces to be snapped pieces of of mywhole fossils. Samples that are tested must come from fragmentary pieces of fossils that are in relatively poor conditions. Imagine what they would find in well-preserved fossils. They hoped that the red blood was from a finger cut, but itwas not human. Some now wonder if even dinosaur DNA could be found. Hard-core evolutionists insist the the fossils were somehowcontaminated. Stop wasting your life on this garbage. It's a dead end.

Dwise, there are more 100 scientific papers acknowledging
that blood vessels, collagen fibers, C-18, and even intact fragments of DNA have been found in fossils that date back multiple millions of years. These examples are now referred to some as "common."Nature Magazine was the first to use this term. The half life of C-14 is 5730 years. After 50,000 to 60,000years the remaining would be low to detect. Evolutionists claim that leech in contaminants is the sourceof the C-14. If contaminants affect all date testing methods, how can these methods be trusted? A fragmented triceratops horn, found in the Hell Creekformation contained tissue, cells, protein. The horn was found at a depth of one foot. It would have been through Many multiple periods of hot and cold. Samples at the bottom rock layers (500,000,000 years)have been found that contain protein.
