Sploom:

You create a thread aimed (literally) at me, and you now decide you’re done with it? :laughing:

So if we lived in a cancer free world,

We don’t, and we never will.

Leaving aside for a moment the devastating impact of a cancer diagnosis on an individual and their family/friends (I’m not immune to this, cancer has impacted some of the people closest to me), the unpalatable fact is that cancer is naturally-occuring; it has for a long time been generally considered by most in the field of cell biology to be a form of microevolution.

The difference between us is, I accept naturally occurring phenomena for precisely what they are; I don’t (as you do) try to shoehorn them into some “grand design” of a sick, twisted and deceitful IFITS and then irrationally claim this is a sign of how IFITS “loves” us, Such Orwellian “doublethink” is the stuff of nightmares to we rational people.

Sploom:
would you be using this as an argument for God to exist,

Why would the lack of a naturally occurring microevolutionary process turn me into an irrational person?

Sploom:
or is this just a one way street?

You are too ill-equipped for logical debate: Namely by virtue of your inherent irrationality, which manifests in an unshakable belief in the supernatural, despite the overwhelming evidence that your belief is a fallacy.

I’ve seen less tripe on a Butchers offal counter , this thread has gone so far to the dogs the vet is just about to put it down

Here’s something I bet you haven’t remotely considered:

What if TN had an evangelical Wiccan (believer in witchcraft, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicca)

or Kabbalist (the Judaism-based esoteric system, commonly seen as the basis of Western Magick, à la Dennis Wheatly and his offerings en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabbalah),

or, even better… :smiling_imp:
an evangelical Satanist (see churchofsatan.com/) I’ll come back to these guys later

All of these belief systems are every bit as legal as Christianity, equally, each of them leave themselves open to derision (some more than others), but all are protected by international law:

“Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) is a human right which has been guaranteed under international law within the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) since 1966. Article 18 of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted in 1948, states that ‘everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion’.”.

Now consider for a moment how you and your fellow evangelising southern-baptists would feel if a group of LaVeyan Satanists decided you needed saving? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Incidentally, Satanists don’t actually believe in your idea of a Hell-dwelling, pitchfork-wielding horned “devil”, torturing sinners for all eternity. In truth I find their advertised beliefs to be far more reasonable than your child-cancer-dispensing Abrahamic “God”. If it weren’t for them choosing for their belief system a deliberately provocative name, overburdened with instinctive associations, I imagine they’d be a lot more popular.

Here’s what Anton La Vey wrote in his Satanic Bible:

Man invented all the Gods, doing so because many of our species cannot accept or control their personal egos, feeling compelled to conjure up one or a multiplicity of characters who can act without hindrance or guilt upon whims and desires.
All Gods are thus externalized forms, magnified projections of the true nature of their creators, [mankind] personifying aspects of the universe or personal temperaments which many of their followers find to be troubling. Worshipping any God is thus worshipping by proxy those who invented that God.
Since the Satanist understands that all Gods are fiction, instead of bending a knee in worship to - or seeking friendship or unity with - such mythical entities, he places himself at the centre of his own subjective universe as his own highest value.
We Satanists are thus our own “Gods,” and as beneficent “deities” we can offer love to those who deserve it and deliver our wrath (within reasonable limits) upon those who seek to cause us - or that which we cherish - harm.

Now, take how you feel about this advocation of Satanism, and turn that around 180 degrees: THAT is how the rest of us feel about your Christian evangelism. If you can make that mental leap (I’m not optimistic about that) you’ll have a deeper understanding of why many of us have the stance we do to your belief system.

the nodding donkey:

Sploom:
He probably wont see the question now.
If you hadnt posted,he would have seen my question.

If god wants him to see the question…

And lo… a light shone down upon me and a choir of imaginary spirits in the sky spake unto me and the word was revealed :laughing:

I should advise Sploom that as much as I am entertained by engagement with him and his “condition”, I do have an off-button on my internet usage

blue estate:
I’ve seen less tripe on a Butchers offal counter , this thread has gone so far to the dogs the vet is just about to put it down

I think I might potentially have just delivered the killing blow (unless Sploom just sees it as a test from God)

Hail Satan :smiling_imp:

No,thats fine.Im done with it now.You can go ahead with the off button.

Game set and match to Zac then. :laughing:
Think it was the mention of Satanists that did it, he’ll be crouching under the dining table with his family,.all clutching crucifixes,.and surrounded by cloves of garlic. :laughing: : :laughing:

Not Quite Rob.

CF has now entered the ‘Sky Fairy, Make-Believe Corner’ in the other thread: A religion question for Robroy,but will he give me a straigh - BULLY'S TRUCKSTOP BAR (INTERACTIVE) - Trucknet UK

And he also admits “I like being with Team God” A religion question for Robroy,but will he give me a straigh - #162 by carryfast - BULLY'S TRUCKSTOP BAR (INTERACTIVE) - Trucknet UK

I guess it explains how an F1, A-Frame, dustcart pilot acquired such an intimate knowledge of every haulage subject, without any first-hand experience.
