I thought that was going to be funny. I quit about a minute in. Standard freshman philosophy rejection of the cosmological argument. Yawn.
It had Ganesh in it. Ganesh is hilarious. I have a Hindu friend. People think I clown on VPM. I'm merciless to this dude. He's a bassist. Every time he wants to play a song - I start Cheeseburger in Paradise.
My favorite deity is Sheela Na Gigs.

This is why I so enjoy this forum...It had Ganesh in it. Ganesh is hilarious. I have a Hindu friend. People think I clown on VPM. I'm merciless to this dude. He's a bassist. Every time he wants to play a song - I start Cheeseburger in Paradise.

The educational aspects are great! Never really new about ole Sheela. A quick GIS on that name shows many old stone idols of a lady doing something equivalent to 'The Image.' I may have to put one in my garden.

Sheela Na Gig will smite you with rays from her gaping vagina for saying such bullshit ..
Because to some people, BK was god.....
.... both are colossal a-holes though.......but only one is real.
Many years ago, an old guy from Indiana died and went to heaven. He was met by St. Peter at the pearly gates, and when Peter was showing him around, the old guy asked if heaven had a basketball team. Peter told him it was the best, and took him to the gym. When they entered, Peter pointed out that the players had letters instead of numbers on their jerseys. Several players had a "G", and Peter explained those were the guards, and similarly explained the "F" and the "C" that the players were wearing.
"But, who is that white-haired fellow with the "BK" on his sweater, yelling at everyone?", asked the man.
Peter replied, "Oh, that's God...he thinks he is Bobby Knight."
FWIW, it appears as though scholars who think the Sheelas represent a deity are in the minority. The more common explanation is that they are simple grotesques, like gargoyles, meant to keep away evil spirits. I think that explanation makes sense, as it would match the long survival of sympathetic magic and other forms of folk magic well into the Christian era. It would also explain why their history seems to follow architectural trends from France into Ireland.
Edit: All that said, I've never put much stock in Margaret Murray's or similar theories, so...

Yeah, but the Bible isn't true. You're worshiping a false idol. Luckily, the true Goddess is actually loving and forgiving, and doesn't demand obedience on pain of damnation, unlike your "Yahweh," so She will not punish you for your error.

Says you. I will go with the witness of a book unified though written over 1500 yrs. Hebrews 1:1-2 says God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways,in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world.
I don't know, but that sounds like a bunch of bullshit.
Let me guess, you think Trump would be a good choice for president.

#11 on the list I posted speaks to the video. God is the First Cause and therefore does not need a Cause for His existence.
Hey, if you want to worship some two-bit goatherder god because an old book tells you to, I won't stop you. Freedom of religion, you know. But when you make it a point to proselytize, expect it to come right back at you.
lol ... yes, use 2000 year old fiction as your guide for life.
What a fking retard..
What is your guide for life? Weed and Dead? Don't make fun of others when your own beliefs are stupid as shit.
Listen dumbass. It's not my fault I'm better than you. Like I told you before - blame your inbred drunken parents. When you see your idiot mother, kick her in the rancid gaping slag dripping c**t that spit your stupid ass into the world. Until then fk off. You're too retarded to speak..

In all seriousness, and brutal honesty, there's four glaringly dumb people on this board. C$, VPM, Lucy and you. C$ and VPM though limited in intelligence are both far ahead of you. Lucy, is fake. So he/she doesn't count. That makes you the dumbest person on this board. And, yet, you still speak.
Let me explain something to you in hopes you finally get how stupid you are and finally stfu. Apparently your teachers and parents failed to do so. I blame them.
On message boards the only currency is intelligence, knowledge and wit. You're void of all three. You're basically a vagrant and every post you make is a waste of data. Dumb people should listen, and never speak. So, do the world a huge favor and STFU.
Thanks ..

Where did I tell anyone to become a Christian by receiving Christ as their Savior? I was standing up for the Word of God because the video was saying that if God existed He would have to have a reason for being, a cause. I was pointing out by the Scripture I quoted that the Bible says God has always existed. I later said it this way. God is the First cause. This means He has always existed as He says He has.
Hey Van, little off topic from this super interesting thread, but I have a question for you about scripture. I've recently become a bit of a bible student because my Mom has not been well and enjoys bible readings on visits.
Anyway, I noticed a few verses that didn't quite match up with my layman understanding of the end times and the popular understanding of the Bible narrative. The more I looked... the more I found. So, I became interested and searched on-line to find the explanation for the verses that did not seem to add up. The more I looked... the more I found. It's quite fascinating actually.
The verse from Hebrews that you quoted had the same problem and I had not even noticed it before. If you go back and look at the verse again, does it not appear that the writer of Hebrews was calling the time that God is speaking through his son "these last days"? Peter said the events of Pentacost were those spoken of by the prophet Joel that would happen in the last days.
The biblical evidence seems overwhelming to me that "the end of the world, book of revelation" type stuff has already been fulfilled a very long time ago. Even the book of Revelation itself starts like this:
1The Revelation of Jesus Christ,which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass.
The second to last verse of Revelation says this:
20He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Regardless, this is probably not the place for doctrinal discussion, but I firmly believe that part of the reason that many people don't believe is because Christianity itself promotes a story that is quite unbiblical. There are literally hundreds of verses (in context) that disprove mainstream Christianity's interpretation of the Bible.
email me at shimatoree84@gmail.com if you are interested in further discussion.
You were witnessing, and you still are. I'm just pointing out that you are worshipping a false god based on an untrue book. Just trying up help you out, is all. If you want to ignore te truth, that's cool. Some people simply aren't ready to see it. Maybe in your next life.

What if you are the ignorant one? What if God really is the First Cause and you won't accept it? So let me get this straight. I will be attacked because I defend an attack on my faith? Also in the original post I was called out. And since I was I thought I would set the record straight from a biblical point of view. The video is garbage because it attacks certain Christian premises,and then won't look at the other side of the argument from a Bible perspective. Hey, I get it. You have to take it on faith that God is Eternal. You take it on faith because you were not there. I would argue that you have to take a lot on faith when it comes to evolution. You were not there either. So here we are with a quandary. None of were there in the beginning and we have to try to make sense of how we got here. I will take the testimony of God Himself. In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth. He also created everything in those places such as stars,moons,animals and people.
