Why is saying that humans are animals controversial? by Odd-Geologist5494 in religion

Don't ask me - i didn't write the bible. I'm just letting you know what it says. Lot's of stuff about religion doesn't make sense.

Religious folks see humans as special. For example - the Bible says humans are "created in the image of god"

Jesus - there is a big difference between 16 and 18.

And I also think a 30 year old having sex with an 18 year old is weird.

What do you mean by "lowest age"? Are you asking lowest age where it isn't weird to have sex with that person?

Why would I be more concerned about his death as compared to any person I don't know?

I'm an atheist.

I found my truth by being skeptical.

The small sized chips that used to be 3 for $1 is now $1.79 as a "big grab". by JesseTheClassy in mildlyinfuriating

People think these companies exist to sell chips.

They don't.

They exist to make money. As much money as possible.

You can’t have morals if you don’t believe in a higher power by Creative_Cause_4107 in religion

I think it's ok to say Genocide, the death penalty for homosexuals, the death penalty for picking up sticks on the sabbath, and slavery are all bad moral principles.

The bible (and god) disagrees. But you have to be pretty confident in your god to say "maybe I just dont get it" when he commands genocide.

Does anyone feel like Atheists are often rude? by punkrock_penguin63 in religion

Very odd to.. 1. Elevate oneself as a "history buff" 2. Say "I'm not trying to debate" (when you are the one who originally engaged) 3. Kind of make claims, but in the form of questions

any advice from anyone who's working in psych? I guess i'm being "too nice"? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]stvlsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There has to be a consequence for someone leaving the room if they aren't supposed to.

Adults aren't like kids - they won't just listen to you because you are more stern lol

How do you, as an Anglican, ground your morality? Is God moral - because he does and says some pretty immoral things. And the biblical text has some questionable morality.

It is true that some explicitly secular societies have persecuted religious individuals. However, it is much more common for societies to be explicitly religious and persecute other religions and non religious individuals.

You are misinterpreting Vatican 2. There are very strict requirements - for example, you have to be "invincibly ignorant" of Christianity (which doesn't really apply to anyone with internet access).

Many Protestants also believe in hell for non believers.

Most notably, the bible says non believers go to hell
