". he helps Christians find their car keys . your god only cares about the free will of evil-doers"
erm , cof cof.
The bad men were voted in by people who are as good as you. So it's very nice when God blocks your vote by intervening as you suggested .

What bad men, nicknamenick?

<<The bad men were voted in by people who are as good as you.>>

And who are these people I suggested were as good as me?

<<So it's very nice when God blocks your vote by intervening as you suggested .>>

When did I suggest that? And why would that be nice?

You’re back to not making any sense again. Your thoughts are utterly scrambled. There seems to be a strong correlation with the poignancy of what I say and the lack of intelligibility in your response that follows.

You wouldn't happen to be related to oneundergod by any chance, would you?

Is English not your 1st language?
People vote. Voting is choosing pollies by marking a piece of paper. Paper is made of paper. People who vote are people like you.
Germans are people and they vote. They died for Hitler and some still are willing. A fifth of the planet thought Mao was good like AJ and you could get your pic on the gateway if you are a good atheist.
You said God could intervene . It's nice you said so and nice when when your vote gets intervenisationalised. Try and say that sensibly.

Yes, English is my mother tongue, nicknamenick. I was going to ask you the same question.

<<Is English not your 1st language?>>

I understand every word you say - individually. But your sentence structure and flow renders your rambling incoherent, as does your thought patterns. What little I can make out of what you say doesn’t seem to bear any relation to anything that I’ve said.

Have you ever been diagnosed with Thought Disorder? In all seriousness, the rest of your post is symptomatic of it.

<<People vote.>>

Yes. I take it you’re referring to political elections here.

<<Voting is choosing pollies by marking a piece of paper.>>

Correct.

<<Paper is made of paper.>>

Yes, but what does this have to do with anything?

<<People who vote are people like you.>>

Yes. Again, relevance?

<<Germans are people and they vote.>>

Yes.

<<They died for Hitler and some still are willing.>>

Some did and still are. Many Nazi soldiers fought purely to stay alive and for no other reason.

So what?

<<A fifth of the planet thought Mao was good...>>

Or were forced to act as though they did. So what?

<<You said God could intervene .>>

If he existed, he could. Yes.

<<It's nice you said so and nice when when your vote gets intervenisationalised.>>

I take it you mean ”interventionalised”, and not even that’s a word.

But why is it nice that I said that God could intervene, and why would having someone intervene whilst one votes be nice?

You’re still not making the slightest bit of sense.

Well NATHAN J...

I had a good listen and read the lyrics attached to this 'Taize' music as referenced by YUYUTSU & FOXY. Apart from the 'easy listening' aspect of the music, and the hopeful all inspiring lyrics, I can't seem to grasp the their concept that we should all endeavour to get on with each other.

As I mentioned in my earlier thread, I'm very much the pragmatist and I just can't see us all happily living together, given our varying cultures, and widely alienating religious proclivities. There are parts of Sydney, if you're of ordinary European appearance, you'd be lucky not to attract a mouth full of invective from those in the majority. Should you be wearing blue - expect much worse, you can believe me on that !

Look NATHAN J, if it could be achieved - great ! However (sadly) it'll never happen, we'll destroy ourselves beforehand I suspect ?

This thread has deteriorated into an attack on Christian belief. The atheists here have not posted one intelligent purpose of what life is and why.
So let us look at what Christians believe and why. Christians follow the life and teachings of Christ. His mission was to improve the health and well being of the people in his day. To teach forgiveness and restore people in character to the values of God and a healthy society. Ultimately to give his life in service to raise the sick, the outcast and the oppressed. By doing these things you improve a society.

It does not happen by evolution: or selective breeding as Hitler thought. It does not happen by aborting millions of healthy unborn or by euthanizing the unproductive. It happens by care of the young and the disadvantaged. Briefly that gives others hope and purpose
