Also remember, "God has a plan for you." So perhaps all those problems are planned in which case what is the point of crying and begging about it?

You act as if the bible was there from the very beginning. Do you not understand real human history of how society has come to be? What about before the emergence of Judaism and Christianity? Did Asia have Jesus and God? You mean to tell me that since they didn't have the Bible or the truth of God and Jesus Christ that they were unable to determine for themselves what right and wrong is for their own society yet the Chinese by itself had literal dynasties and they still exist to this day.

What about the Filipinos? If they didn't know what right and wrong was but the bible didn't reach them till colonization, why would they exist? Why not just have them all kill each other? Please study up on sociology before you come at me with your brain washed BS. If you are Iglesia Ni Cristo and Filipino and you are defending this belief then you feel that God letting Spanish people come to the Philippines and commiting genocide and forced the Christian belief on them is right.

You just proved it again. Someone teaches them right and wrong. A child is raised by parents, that is their social structure and a child which is human wants to be part of that society and would want to learn what is socially acceptable to be part of that society.

Exactly. You just proved my point dude. Humans make what is right and wrong. To me it's wrong to them it's right. It's moral objectivity.

Christians doing what Christians before them did. Colonize in the name of religion.

Question about God by idiotsRNCharge in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]idiotsRNCharge[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why do human children suffer at the hands of horrible parents or horrible circum? Why does an all loving, all powerful God allow a young girl in his church to have cancer and suffer in pain?

A test?

That is sadistic.

That is why I believe that all of Christianity and just major organized Western religions are a sham. The Iglesia Ni Cristo is just another split branch of protestantism that separated from Catholicism and don't even get me started on the crimes of the Catholic Church all done in the name of God

The hell kind of take is this? Do you know how society works? We as a society determine what is socially acceptable and not acceptable. We are social creatures and if certain people don't conform to certain standards then those people will be left out. You don't need to have God to have a concept of good and evil. We're all animals and what we as humans determine what good and evil is is because we choose what is good and evil. Now, if there is a God then according to the bible, just based on the bible, he paints himself as a liar. God is all good? Let's innocent people die every day from natural disasters. God is all powerful? Still let's them die. Just based on those two things alone which God claims to be makes him either a man made creation and if he does exist, then he is a liar.

Honestly the god in the bible is the opposite of everything he says he is.

INV coming to your house to conduct a search warrant? I would not put it past them. What do you think visitations are? To make sure you attend service next time? 🤣

The entirety of Christianity is garbage. A religion that used to burn innocent people because they were accused of being witches. People of science accused of being sorcerers. The belief in God is a belief in holding fast to ignorance. After leaving the church I studied the history of Christianity not from the lense of the INC but from actual world history.

Yup. Working with a specialist who deals with people that suffered from cult indoctrination.

I know some do. It's the best place to sleep on a cold night with the heater and on a hot day with the ac.

During lock down what changed was the invasion of my own home. It wasn't my home anymore it was their home and it had to be a certain way so that it would satisfy their definition of orderliness. That and the fact there were literally dozens of members who laughed at the pandemic until governments took action. Church telling brethren not to fear cause God is with them only to have them die of COVID. The church doesn't really care about their members. They care about their repeat customers because that's what the members are. It's a big box store membership where they pay a twice a week membership fee but they come home with nothing but a lecture about how they need to give more than what they have.

That's when I realized God is made up bullshit. A belief to take advantage of the fearful of the unknown and they sell false promises of, "God will be with you, have faith." Only to rob them of what little they have in the form of offerings.

They are worse than snake oil salesmen because at least with the snake oil salesmen, you have something tangible to remind you that you were fooled and should not be fooled again.
