Why Does The Answer Matter?

[goodlife]

If we really are the product of evolution and there is no Creator, the human race would, in a sense, be an orphan.

Mankind would have no source of superior wisdom to consult—no one to help us solve our problems. We would have to rely on human wisdom to avert environmental disaster,

Does not the events in the world prove that.

mikey, //If you had been knocking at my door, I would not have answered it,// where is the fun in that? I invite them in and ask them to sit down for a proper discussion. They never seem to stay long, it amuses me :-)

Jomifl...I am considering adopting the Z word as my new swear word !

I have been using "ruddy" a lot lately, as my favourite ( concerning the copious issue of red stuff from a wound) has been banned here on AB.

So perhaps zzzzzzzy might do in its place !

[vulcan42]

That will only upset the insomniacs.

[mikey4444]

Ratter...as soon as I tell them that I have been "disfellowshipped", they scurry off down the front path like Satan is after them !

One that I haven't tried is to answer the door to them completely naked !

Goodlife, //True it all needs eyes, ears,and good heart.//

You don't have a good heart. You're unkind.

Rightio.

/ We would have to rely on human wisdom to avert environmental disaster,/
Just as we always have..I think goodlife is cracking ...indeed he may already be cracked.

[anaxcrosswords]

If environmental disaster happens, it is God’s work isn’t it?

Goodlife. If you could, in your own words, explain why everything that is good is love from your God, but the bad things is the wrath from your "loving" god because the unfortunate has been unfaithful or similar.

goodlife - "... atheism in purposeless blind chance; theism in an intelligent First Cause.(Hebrews 3:4)."


Hebrews 3:4 - "For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything" [New International Version]


In what version of the bible does Herbrews 3:4 say that, "atheism [is] purposeless blind chance"?

Nowhere, that's where. You've simply made it up and attempted to claim that your own quote is somehow equivalent to the biblical one. If you're going to quote scripture Goodlife, then quote scripture. Don't put your own spin on it and try and pass it off as a literal quote.

//In my bible, yes I do possess one, Hebrews ( for a long time I thought this was about making tea) 3:4 is about housing.//

I assume you are joking with this comment, surely you are not so blinded to believe it refers to housing!

[goodlife]

Don't you know all people worship someone or something, even if it is to worship one’s own self but due to his egotism he is unaware of that fact.

You can see around the world, people would answer that question in many different ways. The apostle Paul observed: “There are many ‘gods’ and many ‘lords,’” and today the gods worshipped number into the millions. (1 Corinthians 8:5)

Did you know, however, that many people worship a different god from the one they think they are worshiping. And did you realize that many atheists are more devout in their belief in a god.

In what way, at this time of crisis in the world Jesus himself showed Satan’s great influence when He called him “the ruler of this world.” (John 12:31)

The apostle Paul called Satan “the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit that now operates in the sons of disobedience,” and “the god of this system of things.” (Ephesians 2:2; 2 Corinthians 4:4)

So little wonder atheists believe all the atrocities of this “enlightened” scientific world could not be following the master plan of some powerful, evil force that is bent on driving mankind away from God and perhaps even to global suicide.
