God Test

[slotted]

Let god bear the burden of proving atheism.

In I Kings 18, Elijah performs a test with the Prophets of Baal to disprove Baal's existence.

Sounds like ol' Elijah had a good time watching the priests of Baal do their thing:

And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.
1 Kings 18:27

Come on god, where are you at?

Oh well, he must be asleep.

Don't be too shocked guys, but he still hasn't shown. Wonder if he's got an alarm clock?

He's sitting right here with me. We're thinking up ways to punish you.

Maybe you can help him come up with something a little better than his usual methods. He's starting to get unoriginal.

:eye: :heart: :U:

For the record, Slotted, I am not a religious person, but I do believe that religion very much serves a purpose in this world for those who seek to understand and explain the unexplainable. As I watch your passionate protests, I have come to realize thou doth protest too much. Go to the light, Slot... you are truly one who seeks... you are just fighting it...

:shrug: Who are you that God should work according to your time schedule? Who am I for that matter? Our time frame is not His.

Yet if you agree with the bible, then you are saying that Baal should be on a time schedule. Oh, the irony.

Not seeing certain posts but looking at responses I offer this to slotted. You seem so set against God that even if He struck you with His wrath, you would not recognize is as coming from Him. It matters not what you post slotted. God is.

 

[tlatchaw]

So you claim to be like one of the 450 prophets of Baal? Or you a mighty prophet of God like Elijah? Sounds like you are taunting God's believers like Elijah taunted Baal's prophets.

This makes me wonder what miracle you are attempting to create. Remember, after Elijah did his taunting he prepared the burnt sacrifice by dousing it three times with water until it was positively drenched. Then he prayed to be revealed as God's servant and God sent fire that burned the wood, the meat, the stones, the soils, and dried up the water.

Where's your miracle?

Don't worry, he isn't able.

god is, god is, god is, god is.......... You know, I keep saying it, but it still isn't true... WTF is going on here? Do I need to stand on one foot while I chant it?

 

[tlatchaw]

Waiting for Slotted's miracle.

 

[tlatchaw]

Don't be too shocked guys, but he still hasn't performed it yet. Maybe Slotted is sleeping.

Why do you need proof slotted, don't you have any faith?

 

[Toxick]

god is, god is, god is, god is.......... You know, I keep saying it, but it still isn't true...

Wow - when you say it with such authority like that - I can't help but see the light.

Your are so right!!1!


Forget my life time of study and thought.



I'll believe you from now on.

WTF is going on here? Do I need to stand on one foot while I chant it?

Please do.

If nothing else, that would be fun to watch.

ROFL, so the story goes, but he's still a no show around here. Guess god is out of the miracle business now. Maybe he's to busy running the universe and all. Or maybe it's because we can use science to discount "miracles" these days.

 

[tlatchaw]

Still waiting. Seems maybe he's not a modern day Elijah of the atheists after all.

I think NP is right, he doth protest too much. He'll come around one day, or select some other religion (such as atheism) and become fundamentalist for that.

Good luck, Slotted. And yes, you're in my prayers.

Nothing more than a red herring. I've never claimed to be able to perform a miracle. ROFL, Yet "god" has. Hell, he can't even prove that he exists, let alone perform a miracle.

You're in my prayers = I'll tell you what to think.
