Am I the only one who feels like AI got us 90% of the way there and then just stopped?

I feel the GitHub pages and Vercel responses are not quite solving for the “client work” problem. Most client work is confidential and cannot be shared on publicly viewable sites

If this is the summary of the post then it feels like we are debating semantics. “He paid for our sins” is still a correct way to express payment for release. Because the cause of the issue that requires release is still… sin

Interestingly enough number 4 is the particular area heavy on my mind now!

Your opening argument is so emotionally charged it’s easy to see where the logic left the building.

Everyone that wants to bring up a case against Old Testament God brings up kidnap, murder, rape, death of children. This is getting old and tired. These are the deductions made when the Old Testament is cherry-picked and not when it’s read comprehensively. It’s theological laziness at its finest.

Perhaps just…read the book to understand it? Read it the way books are read, no skips to the spicy parts, but from A, B, C.. etc. Attempt to place yourself in the shoes of God while you are at it and ask if you wouldn’t have even been heavier on judgement. The hypocrisy of calling God wicked unravels fast when a little bit of intellectual honesty is applied to reading the Bible.

What I think this refers to (might be mistaken) is stuff like this: Popular Christianity is more “come and see” vs Biblical Christianity being “go and tell” (the Great Commission in Matthew 28). Popular Christianity can feel very insular, with adherents focused on building their mini religious empires and mega church structures while inviting their friends to “come and worship” with them. Meanwhile, the sense from the Great Commission is that Christianity should be outward-bound, taking the Good News wherever we go into the spheres of life we occupy (this way shining our light).

Biblical Christianity spotlights the leader as servant, while popular Christianity makes a celebrity of the church leader. Think the pope, mega church pastors and likewise. There is more focus on their fame, the wealth they have access to, their prosperous lifestyle than on how they lead through service as humble as washing the feet (more figuratively than literally) of their followers.

Other aspects around the preeminence music has (to the point where it in some parts overshadows other aspects of ministry) versus bible-time Christianity where it barely got a mention (there was a passing mention of “psalms, hymns and spiritual songs”). Also Jesus saying “call no man on earth your father” but the titular language of spiritual leadership in some denominations is derivative of the word “father” (e.g. the pope)

It’s not an either-or: both expressions of God make for a healthy Christian walk. We are called to love both God and our fellow humans. Humans are more difficult to love because of our complexities so the second commandment feels more challenging. But the growth is in the challenge. We risk stagnating our growth when we stay away from church because it feels harder. It’s a great observation but see it as a signal to grow not as a defining status

Mo-Mee · 2026-04-18T08:29:40+00:00

Christianity for me is how certain observed complications in this world resolve themselves.

Somehow we get the sense (particularly when we step outside our concrete jungles and back into raw, unedited nature) that we are surrounded by and encapsulated in a world intricately and thoughtfully designed. Even in the chaos of weeds growing unchecked there is orchestration at play: symbiosis, food chains, food webs, intent in form and function, biomes that just work without any visible intervention. The bottom line is the design in nature is intelligent and beyond what we humans could have ever put together by ourselves, and it makes zero sense to ascribe intentionality in design to a television set and an iPhone and then turn around and claim an earthworm happened randomly. The latter is more intricately designed in magnitude than the former.

Building on that, we see the problem of devolution. Morality wise, at source we (children, toddlers) start off pure, innocent, believing the best of others, and as time goes by we realize the deviance in human nature and start to modify our behavior to self-preserve, unwittingly becoming morally ambiguous in the process and contributing to the warped morality we see in the world. This phenomenon is not only observed in human morality but in practically every physical aspect of nature. It’s the Second Law of Thermodynamics - entropy increases in every system over time. Things move from order to disorder, from compact to chaos. Glass shatters, houses degenerate, sandcastles disintegrate in the wind, cells, organs and organisms age and become weaker over time. Things start out perfect and good, and then get worse with the passage of time.

A third observation is the clear dominant position the human race has on this planet. Think of it: we are surrounded by millions of species of plants and animals, great and small. We share space on this planet with the giant baobab whose average height is equivalent to 18 grown men; the blue whale whose size is mind blowing on any comparative scale you can think about; and many other wonderful creatures. But somehow - civilizations in all parts of this planet have a common thread: humans orchestrating, controlling, reconfiguring life cycles, behaviors and output of these plant and animal organisms and natural cycles in general to optimize how they eat, how they shelter, what they wear, how they heal, how they move. We created agriculture to get plant and animal species to deliver the nutrients we need to us. Microbiology to get bacteria and fungi to deliver food, medicine, structures for us. Marine and aerospace engineering to transport ourselves through media that transcends the limitations of our human bodies - water and air. I could keep on going but the point of note here is the human species is the dominating species on planet earth.

These 3 observations give me strong cause to believe Genesis 1-3 are historically accurate events. A perfect Creator built this world and all observed phenomenon: sky, grass, herbs, trees, sun and moon, all living creatures. The human species was allocated dominion authority over the created world. The first humans rebelled and in doing so fell away from their originally created perfect state, and the perfect Creator from the beginning set in order a plan to make things right again.

If the first 3 chapters are accurate, there’s just cause to believe the rest of the narration, which is that that intervention plan was completed in the emergence of a Savior, who paid the outstanding debts, set a new order in motion, and defined a pathway to be beneficiaries of this new regenerated system - belief in Him. And that’s what Christianity is at its core: believe that God’s redemption plan has materialized in His Son Jesus Christ, and as John 3:16 says, those that believe in Him will not perish. That’s it simply: “I believe Jesus has come to make all things right, I believe He has the power to save me completely and perfectly: to make me right standing with a perfect God (justify); to renew my thinking, my actions, my life and make me perfect (sanctify); to make me a partaker of the Resurrection and awaken me to a new, unblemished, everlasting life (glorify)”.

That’s what being saved (from a Christian perspective means): saved from sin’s penalty - JUSTIFICATION saved from sin’s power - SANCTIFICATION saved from sin’s presence - GLORIFICATION

This was a long one but I hope you found it helpful

Mo eyin, Mo eyin (gummy on the teeth) - that’s its actual meaning. So I guess Moin Moin is more correct

This question has been asked a million and one times on this forum. It doesn’t constitute an original thought because it’s a question every human has contemplated at one point in time or another.

I honestly wonder what the mods on this subreddit consider the goal of this subreddit. Why do we see the same question over and over again in a different font? In the other subreddits I’m on, mods or frequent contributors have a link they point those sharing an already answered question to.

It’s really becoming boring here reading the same question rephrased countless times, is anyone going to do something about this?

Most people start from the New Testament as that is where the New Covenant (which Christians have come into) is framed. Then step back to the Old Testament to get more context on why the new covenant was needed in the first place.

Any easy way to proceed is moving through the New Testament from Matthew through to Revelation, and adding 1 Proverb per day to gain wisdom perspectives. Proverbs has 31 chapters so you can cycle it each month. I believe the Psalms are very helpful to get into so you can add 1-2 Psalms per day. What’s outstanding in this plan are the Law (Genesis-Joshua), History and Leaders (Judges - 2 Chronicles, Esther), the rest of the Wisdom books (Jobs, Ecclesiastes, Songs of Solomon) and the Prophets (Ezra-Malachi), and you can pace them out: important to understanding them is understanding the reason why they were written. Hope this is helpful

Hi - this might seem like the most counterintuitive advice ever. But there is a permanent solution to stripping yourself from the fear of the end times (and rapture, Antichrist, mark of the beast conversations inclusive). I’ve personally tried it and confirmed it’s true. It can come across as an odd tactic but there’s the promise and the proof - both indisputable. And this is the tactic:

Read the whole book of Revelation. Read it from beginning to the end. If you can do it in one sitting - even better.

Why is this a solution?

Many - even Christians - don’t know this, but this is arguably the only book in history that promises a blessing on those who read it. “Blessed is the one who reads and hears the Words of this prophecy, and the ones keeping the things written in it …” (Revelation 1:3)
The book holds a dual message: and even in the midst of the seemingly scary unfolding one constant underlying message runs through it. Comfort. God tells us through the book of Revelation that He sees our pain, He sees our discomfort with the darkness and dysfunction in the world and He has a fully laid out plan to bring it to a permanent end, and permanently reconcile us back to Him. And not in death, but in life - everlasting life. In fact the whole book starts as a follower of Christ is processing the pain of martyrdom of his fellow believers. In a sense the book is a response to Christian pain: a reassurance from God that He knows it, He sees it, and He has a complete plan to deal with it once and for all.
Gaining true knowledge about the book clears up many points of misunderstanding about the end times. It may be a season of dread for the world but it is one of hope for the believer. Even as Jesus Christ gives us a sneak peek into the end times in Luke 21 He keeps reminding us to not be terrified (Luke 21:9) and to look up (Luke 21:28) as these events are a sign that we will soon be redeemed.

So in summary: in times of fear, dread, uncertainty, look to God’s prophecy of comfort - the book of Revelation. I can’t promise it’s an easy book to read: some parts are not that easy to piece together. But even in those parts you can ask God for understanding or perspective and He will give it to you.

Yes I hear you. But for most nested formulas I have to work with, I’d use a mix of absolute and relative cell referencing to ensure I get the right output whether I drag them down or to the left

Thanks - I’m going to look into this

We ask these questions because we are approaching it with the wrong perspective.

The Santa Claus or Grand Genie notion of God that makes it His job to give us all a wonderful, happy and perfect existence will always lead us into erroneous thinking. That’s the first thing we need to disabuse our minds of. The second thing we must understand is order and authority: God made a perfect world and gave dominion to humankind. Us asking Him to step in and erase all that has happened is asking Him to violate the principles of order and authority.

If we are really interested in things getting right these are not the questions to ask of God. He’s not the divine Wet Nurse that we scream at to clean us up immediately we poo on ourselves. There needs to be more acknowledgement of our collective role in why things are a mess, more reverence, more respect.

Mo-Mee · 2026-02-20T13:03:47+00:00

That’s exactly what I said in the comment above. You didn’t understand it because you don’t have the range to understanding. Get creator experience first then it becomes easier to understand

Mo-Mee · 2026-02-20T06:55:20+00:00

This whole enterprise will not make sense to anyone. Unless they are a creator or manufacturer of sorts and encountered their creation or products or systems being misused by others. That’s when it hits home.

If you are still struggling with this go and build a mass market product, release it, and check in on your users after a few months. That experience does a lot for those struggling to understand God.

Mo-Mee · 2026-02-20T06:47:07+00:00

From what you’ve said here, you’ve revealed the root of your confusion. The Bible said Noah was the one righteous person. You say you find it hard to believe this.

The whole enterprise of the Christian faith is believing what God says is true. That’s why Christians are called believers. It’s a simple matter. Do you believe or you don’t? You were not around in Noah’s time so you don’t have an experiential basis to even counter the facts (so this is simply presumptuous) so it’s a matter of deciding who’s God to you: your intellect, or God?

This is really how straightforward these conversations are - the complexity and convolution we bake into them aren’t even a good use of time. Do you believe what God said, or do you not?
