I do understand your point of view and I...Reynold,<br /><br />I do understand your point of view and I was merely poking hard to invoke a more passionate answer from you. I know now that you are anything but cowardice and you would do anything to save the Jews. In fact, I was thinking that it was quite self sacrificial of you to knowing defy God to get the job done. Someone that sacrifices themselves by breaking God commandments, knowing they may end up in hell, to save someone is a selfless act that I could respect. I was wrong to call you cowardice. Also, sorry for bantering at your expense. In my armchair quarterbacking I am confident that I would stand up to the government as to their wrongness, and fight to the death. But putting my family in harms way by dying wouldn't be a good strategic move though. In reality I am sure I might point down the street and say "They went that way" to throw them off the trail. I just don't know how I would act in a real situation. I guess it depends how much ammo I would have at the time. Thanks for calling me an a$%hole, I deserved it.<br /><br />>>God waited. No one went to the "new world" (I thought I had mentioned that, I guess not!) until centuries after Christ "died". Why didn't he send angels to let them know the "good news" right away?<br /><br />I remember God meeting with Paul, then Saul, and blinding him with His presence. Plus I still don't understand what "new world" you are talking about. I was under the assumption that people preached the word unending after Christ raising from the grave. They have been doing it until this day. Am I wrong? <br /><br /><b>Now you are speaking of "human nature" in a fallen creation.</b><br /> <br />>>All the more reason for "God" to send angels to them the instant Christ was born to let them know WHICH "god" actually exists, and how to be saved by him, instead of waiting for centuries for the missionaries to come.<br /><br />Well Remember that Moses went up to the mountain to speak to God and the people immediately made that golden calf. It is a human nature thing. I don't question God's process, I trust Him in doing the right thing to save His creation.<br /><br />There are truly evil people in this world and even if Christ would stand in front of them, knowing He is God, they would not trust Him or worship Him. Those people will burn in hell forever. But I believe, once God reveals Himself as our Savior, that many atheists would understand clearly and follow Him. Hopefully you will be one of the latter so that we can have a good laugh about all of this in Heaven someday.<br /><br />There are many atheists here like you, that are not necessarily stubborn and proud that I see, but they seek the truth and I will trust God to reveal that truth to all of you, to save you, because of His love for you. <br /><br />Sorry cutting it short. I need to build a computer. <br /><br />>>By the way, Dan...you never answered the question from my first comment on this post. <br /><br />You're right I didn't. I don't believe that it is a fallacy at all. Like cold and heat, or light and darkness, evil is the absence of God (light) so by pushing God away makes you more evil (darkness). It is not an emotional plea, it's a scientific observation. The less God in your life the darker you are. Move towards the light. Discussing God on these blogs, to me, is moving towards the light so please don't stop. Seek and you will find. :7)D. A.

Unless you are being dishonest yourself that is. People can be mistaken with something they observe but that does not mean they are lying.</i><br /> <br />I quoted the parts where I lay out what I was saying. There is no way that you can make an "observation" that I would have turned the Jews over to the Nazis unless you did some very (ie. creationist-level) selective "reading". <br /><br /><b>Second: You never apologize after I catch you in that lie</b><br /><br /><i>Again, it is not lying but misinformed or mistaken.</i><br /> <br />How can you be misinformed, Dan? All you had to do was read what I wrote. It wasn't until after I repeated myself (more than once), in bold, that you stopped saying that I'd turn them over.<br /><br />You never DID apologize for your so-called "mistake" either. My point thus stands.<br /><br /><b>Third: You then accuse me of cowardice once I finally beat it into your head what I'd actually do.</b><br /><br /><i>No, I was merely clarifying the more accurate observation. :7)</i><br /> <br />And you're doing it right now...I stated more than once that it's not just my life that would be lost, but those of the people I'd be protecting. You don't seem to want to catch that. <br /><br /><br /><b>And either you're lying again, or you're too dense to realize the meaning of the words at the end of what I said: "...certain death for you all". Let me explain. "you all" means the Jews you're hiding, your family, and finally yourself.</b><br /><br /><i>By your logic, calling me dense is lying on your part but to me you are just mistaken.</i><br /> <br />Wrong...I mentioned that you are either lying or dense in this instance, since I'm not sure which. <br /><br />Either way, your charge of cowardice is wrong.<br /><br /><b>Fourth: You keep insisting that it's only my OWN LIFE that I'm concerned about, even though to anyone with a brain, it's obvious I'm thinking of everyone involved, not just myself.</b><br /><br /><i>Yes, everyone involved including, or especially, yourself.</i><br /> <br />And here you go again, Dan. "Especially"? WTF?<br /><br />Read what I said in my earlier post. I pretty much said that I'd fight the Nazis if they saw through my lie. <br /><br />You once again try to disregard the very point I'm trying to make in order to keep your own false assumptions about me.<br /><br />I don't know what to call that.<br /><br /><br /><b>Fifth: You attribute with no evidence whatsoever selfish motives to non-christians who are charitable.</b><br /><br /><i>Correction, selfish motives to all who are charitable. You liar?</i><br /> <br />Ah, ok. I thought you were just referring to non-xians. I should have known better when you were talking about "...kind of like preaching the good news"...at least I admit my mistake the first time it's pointed out.<br /><br />Mind you, that doesn't help your case. The bible <b>does</b> specify rewards for the works of believers. So a case can be made for selfish motives for believers.<br /><br /><b>The real kicker is that everyone is supposed to obey the commandments, or do you think that xians like yourself don't have to follow them?</b><br /><br /><i>Again, to me you are mistaken, according to your logic you're a liar.

It's the <b>Jews lives who I promised to protect</b>! Do you really think that, if the Nazis didn't buy my story and barged in anyway, that I'd just "cower"? <br /><br />You don't know fuck about me. <br /><br />Do you really think that <b>ONE MAN</b> could stand up to the <b>ENTIRE NAZI ARMY</b>? <br /><br />Ask a Jew sometime if, in Nazi germany he'd feel confident in a single person's ability to protect him from the Nazi hordes outside, after you go and tell the nazis that you're hiding him!<br /><br />Maybe that will let the air out of your brainless "machismo" act you've got going.<br /><br />Look at how such standoffs end in real life.<br /><br />You're a piece of work. <br /><br />First: You lie about me, saying that I'd turn the Jews over to the Nazis when in fact I said I'd try and hide them.<br /><br />Second: You never apologize after I catch you in that lie<br /><br />Third: You then accuse me of cowardice once I finally beat it into your head what I'd actually do.<br /><br />Is it any <b>wonder</b> why I'm always swearing at you? <br /><br /><br /><b>Dan the liar continues, twisting my words:<br /><br />Your way is certain death for you all.</b><br /><br /><i>Priorities is the subject here, not actions.

They were anti-semitic, I'm not.<br /><br />First, many were not anti-Semitic. The RCC may have been, but the individual priests and nuns as well as others were not, they risked life and limb to save those Jews. They loved their neighbors, like the stories you linked to. They had good intentions to do the right thing. My point is to ask ourselves if stealing food to feed a family is righteous? Is breaking Commandments, for any reason, good? I would say no and you would, of course, say yes. That is the moral dichotomy of this example. The Commandments are not a factor for you at all. The real kicker is the Commandments are not for me they are for people like you. (1 Timothy 1:9-10, Romans 7:7-8)<br /><br />>>People who generalize are @$$holes.<br /><br />Isn't that a generalization itself? (*snicker)<br /><br />>>You're suicidal, and your antics would get you all killed.<br /><br />Yes that is what you believe to be true but that is not necessarily true. Remember that you linked to a story that the woman died and did what you said you would do. But I do understand that you are scared to fight, I get it. You're a frightened little boy trapped in a man's body. I get you. I would rather stand and fight for the right thing then to cower and maybe, and only maybe, survive.<br /><br />>>Your way is certain death for you all.<br /><br />Priorities is the subject here, not actions. My priorities place God first where yours puts self first. Self preservation is overrated these days.<br /><br />>> She lied to protect them, and there was no punishment from God.<br /><br />You know for certain she went to Heaven to live eternally with God?<br /><br />>>Dan, think.

Kind of like charity, you don't really give to make the recipients feel good, you give to help yourself feel good.<br /><br />"Charity is a selfish thing" there is a t-shirt for you MG.<br /><br />I just believe that God knew we need to do something to feel like we are contributing in some way.<br /><br />>>Besides, how would you handle a Muslim who said that his god is revealed through "nature"?<br /><br />I would agree with him. His "god" was revealed, that is for sure. But also, I would preach to him the good news, you know, to feel like I was contributing. God revealed nature, his god was revealed.<br /><br />Not all religions are true they are at opposition with each other. So many lead to false gods, even your religion. If you analyze the evidence out there, you would come to the same conclusion as I have. That Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.D. A.

What? The anti-semitism of the RCC is a well-known historical fact, as that link of yours shows. (looks like a good educational movie).<br /><br />Thing is, how in hell can you compare me to those guys? They were anti-semitic, I'm not. <br /><br />You wonder why I swear at you when you make dumb, off-base generalizations like that?<br /><br />Not only that, but you're making an over-generalization from <b>one situation</b> You know what they say: People who generalize are @$$holes.<br /><br /><br /><i>but I am just the stand on what is right, fight to the death for liberty, kind of guy.a</i><br /> <br />You're suicidal, and your antics would get you all killed.

Your way is certain death for you all.<br /><br /><i>If the church would of just made a stand and condemn the Nazis actions the history may have looked very different. They hid the Jews and lied to the Nazi's just like you are promoting and look at the results.</i><br /> <br />Look at what would happen if ONE person, you, would try to stand up to them instead of trying to trick them. Certain death. My way wasn't guaranteed, but yours is, as I said: Certain death. <br /><br />I say again: If you're stupid enough to tell the nazis that you're hiding Jews, then you're going to die. What do you think the Jews would do if you told them that was how you'd "protect" them? <br /><br />You do know that people have hidden Jews from the Nazis, right? <br /><br />I even mentioned before that in the Old Testament, there's the story about the prostitute who hid Joshua's spies. That worked out. She lied to protect them, and there was no punishment from God. <br /><br />She would not have been able to fight off the soldiers who were looking for those spies.Reynoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07316048340050664487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771612431511732960.post-48782497360533863622010-01-22T02:07:48.959-05:002010-01-22T02:07:48.959-05:00Why are Creationist obsest with child molestation....Why are Creationist obsest with child molestation. Everywhere I try and find evidence for creation, all i get is God loving weirdo's going on about child molestation. Humans have evolved morals based on what is best for the whole community. So no it is not in our nature to molest childeren.nor will it ever be! However when groups of people isolate themselfs (religous groups) from the rest of society, then base there beliefs (morals) on some fairy tales (bible) there morals collapes without the correction/intolerence from the broader comminity. <br /><br />So maybe you could help the rest of us understand what justifercation you (religous) are using when commiting these crimes? Is it because there not allowed to marry? Is it because "we'll the bible doesn't say not to do it, so it must be ok"?<br /><br />What proof is there that the bible is the words of a creator and not made up by man?

You may be the run, hide, and lie, kind of person like the RCC, but I am just the stand on what is right, fight to the death for liberty, kind of guy.<br /><br />I remember the RCC being silent during those Nazi days. If the church would of just made a stand and condemn the Nazis actions the history may have looked very different. They hid the Jews and lied to the Nazi's just like you are promoting and look at the results. The shameful acts of the RCC are inexcusable. Go watch <a href="http://constantinessword.com/" rel="nofollow">"Constantine's Sword"</a> for more about that subject. It would be worth the rental, it is now streamable on Netflix.<br /><br />Don't be so thinned skinned or hold a grudge if I offended you though, I was merely making a point. I don't see you apologizing for your foul language and blaspheming either.<br /><br />I will continue to believe that you are a fair man and that if my family needed your help that you would be there for us and would defend our liberty if it ever came to that.D.
