the idea of a God like that existing is rather unsettling

>>13094965
God is real, but He is not the God of the old testament. If the OT God corresponds to anything real, he is something more like a minor demon.

God must be anthropomorphized for humans to understand Him. When God is angry, that does not mean He is angry as humans are

Worse than Zeus. Seriously.
And Jesus? Clearly adopted, but not much better. Him and his conditional love.

>>13094965
It’s the way our ancestors explained why the world and life in general were so harsh.

>>13095023
It's not exactly like our anger since ours is bogged by ego, selfishness and sinful impulses. But it's still an apt metaphor to say God is angry when such and such happens, in the sense that he disapproves and disdains it.

Bad things happen to produce a system that begets Christ.
He makes moral rules so that man may become one with the eternal character of the Godhead which is pure Good.
You can see God, but it will take much effort.
Homosexuality as well as promiscuity is evil because it can spread disease which is detrimental to the survival of the human race.
Evolution occured to produce the body of man in a self-reliant system (one without God's aid).

Nothing is implied here. See the overbearing point. Dawkins should stick to his scientific literature.

OP is gay and not all gay men have sex with boys or vice versa.


I am a man with HIV who has had sex with girls, but I was raised believing it is wrong to have homosexual or bi relationships. In other words, even if I do have sex, it cannot be seen as "unnatural".


But now I am seeing friends, who have experienced same sex activity as their same class classmates, with very little discussion about it at all. I can see why this is so upsetting!


If all these boys had the right information about condoms to look out for when they have sex, this number may not be so high.


A lot of people will be left confused and wondering "Why didn't I know?" if they do have homosexual or bi sex. I have felt this way a lot in my own personal life.


Do other people feel that way too?

My thoughts and experiences are my own:


I am now going to put all the information I have heard above into

If you anthropromorphise God by saying "he bad because kill people and make life hard" I'm just taking it to the logical conclusion. And most of my points specifically have to do with God NOT being human so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

What about pulling out or contraception? Or failing to bleed as a virgin being fucked by your husband for the first time? Or happening to be someone that lived in Jericho etc.

>>13098008
What about being a slave to your own carnality willingly instead of praying to be free from it?

>>13098018
I don't know how failing to bleed is a sign of being a slave to the flesh. Women can have their hymen ruptured a number of ways as children.

>>13098032
What's your point?
That you're going to hell if you don't protect your hymen?

If your hymen breaks outside of the bridal bed, before you go to hell you must first visit Atlantis.

I posted this earlier today in a thread that was unfortunately not tranny-related and was thus deleted.

>Yes, it's part of ur-Theology, "God is always home", "Hell is locked from the inside", etc. Catholicism missing the point entirely.

>But to the Mind-less ones, the wicked and depraved, the envious and covetous, and those who murder do and love impiety, I am far off, yielding my place to the Avenging Daimon, who sharpening the fire, tormenteth him and addeth fire to fire upon him, and rusheth upon him through his senses, thus rendering him readier for transgressions of the law, so that he meets with greater torment; nor doth he ever cease to have desire for appetites inordinate, insatiately striving in the dark.

>The "yielding my place" is quite shrewd. Looking for God in PLACES, in Material or Material-related terms, and title or title-related terms, is contrary to Idealism in general, and contrary still to Dialectical Monism, like Christianity. God "yielding his place" as in limiting himself as per the misguided inquiry is tragically ironic, earnestly fulfilling it to the inquirer's content, and thereby becoming a monster.

God being ever lenient and ever earnest means he will happily play whatever role demented beast-men ascribe to him to the demonstration of their error, it makes Yahweh essentially a hippie in maintaining a decorum of Dualism and only interacting with people on THEIR terms, but practically a tyrant in Epistemological Nihilism and letting thing go awry. And, in turn, Jesus is essentially a tyrant in demonstrating himself and only interacting with people on HIS terms, but practically a hippie in Epistemological disclosure and consecrating things as awry. Yahweh reversing himself by himself would only make people revert him right back by taking demonstration as per former Dualism and so on and so forth, the stone is too heavy for the Father, not the Son. Note how, apart from one instance in John, if that, Yahweh is not only silent in the Gospels, but absent proper. Even Jesus speaks of him as such, despite affirming their non-Duality. The final question of abandonment being exemplary dark humor, Jesus doing an impression of old Man to new Man's embarrassment.

>>13097990

well, he did that once, apparently. why hasn't he done it again?

I'd feel the same way, Richard, if my teacher had raped me in the shower every night for years. I'm sorry you went through that. Maybe someday you'll get over it and stop blaming God for allowing your teacher to rape you.

>>13098623
Well, but why did God let that happen?

>>13098636
Why do Christians think this is an argument?

I don't care if Dawkins is an asshole. No one cares. I do care if god is an asshole on the other hand. Everyone should care about that.

Why is it that all STEMfags can do when writing about anything outside of their expertise is to ramble and produce crass diatribes?

>>13094959
Hence His appeal to people who are resemble that, and secretly wish to be the goons of charismatic psychopaths, which are the fake/bully versions of apha males--which in reality have all the social virtuosity betas lack. (Unfortunately, what in meme-tier culture--if you could call it that--is called beta is really a kind of gamma--one short of of the pure menial, still an idiot, but with just enough brain to notice the drawbacks to a hopelessly servile status, especially with respect to fashionable bigotries of one sort or another, and the boredom of an artless life.) Dawkins may have lacked that last measure of comic insouciance in face of the fact that the human race is far too stupid to have a future beyond the fate of any of this planet's other groundlings,which is probably also the fate of all species intelligent enough for grammar and indoor plumbing. But I still found his bluntness oddly fetching in that H. L. Mencken sort of way.

I get the feeling the atheists are just a bunch of cumbrains that want free cummies

But now that life isn't so harsh the hankering after the sting of hardship & battle continues, moreso for the high-stimulus seekers among us, those of thicker hide and duller ear. This gives all the modern advantage to the low-stimulus seekers who actually enjoy the luxury of placid exurban places and packed refrigerators and huge music archives, etc. The only existence happier than that of the mature polymath is that of their fortunate children.
