I actually agree with you on most points. It is MY belief that God does exist, but I'm not here to convert anyone, only to give my opinion. I only said 'bring it' because I expected replies from maybe 2 or 3 obnoxious atheists who feel a driving need to tell me I'm wrong. Instead I got about 300 of them, lol.

I don't claim to have information you don't, I never did. All I said was we cannot see things from Gods perspective, a perspective implied by the fact that He is God. It is stated in the Bible more than once that God is wiser than us, that He knows everything. I'm as human as you are, I have no special privileges. The…

I was thinking mostly Viking or Celtic, but there are hints of art nouveau too - then again art nouveau has it's roots in Celtic and Viking artwork.

I dunno, Captain Hook and Jafar are pretty iconic. I had to think about some of the others though. :)

these are lovely! I want some!!!

this is sick, feeds right into rape culture. These boys are sociopaths.

The Bible does not make perfect sense. I wonder about a LOT of it.

1. I didn't say the analogy was perfect, but it was the best I could come up with - and actually we can fundamentally alter the nature of dogs and have done so for thousands of years.

Actually, I'm perfectly sane. I'm not intoxicated either. The fact of the matter is that the existence of God cannot be proven or disproven. It's a paradox. I choose to believe that God exists because I see in the Universe an order that seems too impossibly perfect to have happened by accident. I choose…

lol thanks. But it's "Sister" ;)

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Are you asking if it's arrogant to speak to God or for Him? And yes, the Bible says we are created in God's image, but that could mean any number of things. Since He's the one who created us, I don't see how it's arrogant.

We've had record cold here in Fort Wayne, IN, and I haven't seen the ground in nearly 2 months. Indiana winters usually consist of several snowfalls followed by slight thaws, this year it's just been cold and colder and snow and more snow. I'm so ready for Spring!

I'm sure He's perfectly able. Forgive the analogy, it's the best I could come up with off the top of my head, but can you explain to your dog why you neutered him? In a way that he will understand, I mean.

if you commented here and did not get a response, my apologies - I've never gotten so many replies for a single comment before. My intent was to state my opinion, and I figured I get a couple know-it-alls coming to prove how I'm wrong and God is fake and I'm a horrible person for believing, blah blah blah. Thus the…

Perspective: I don't claim to know God's perspective, any more than my dog could know my perspective. But my dog realizes I know more than he does, that's why he looks to me for help when confronted with a problem he can't solve. Just like my dog, I know God knows more than I do.

good point, good point. Our morality does come from God, but it is limited to our own perspective. If you have a flock of sheep (for example) and you want to have the healthiest sheep possible, you know that sometimes you will have to sell or kill some of the sheep to prevent inbreeding. Sheep do not necessarily…

no, actually. But you're apparently the kind of person who feels they can know everything about someone from a single comment on a single article.

that's because Obama is a pod person. He hasn't been real in years.

I know. I just like the wall in the background.

actually, I've received well over 100 responses and I don't feel like spending all day answering every single one when 99 percent of them were insults. I'm not sure what you think I owe you, but I'm don't even know what you asked in the first place as I don't see your original question, just a really rude comment. …
