Mystic Force Posted 26 May, 2020 Posted 26 May, 2020 The art of debate is truly alive and well. Still did not see anything that doesn't show that religion is a man made construct other wise those other books must also be true based on the same reasoning so, the Bible the Quran, Buddhist texts, Hindu Vedas are all equally valid.

Lighthouse Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Surely that’s representative of nothing more than a worldwide hiatus in religious service and preaching, which has lead to people downloading apps and online text.

Matthew Le God Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 (edited) @Raging Bull 1) What do you make of religious people who are saying they won't wear facemasks because they consider it is disrespectful for the amazing breathing system God designed? 2) Incidentally... it isn't a 'good design' of a breathing system. If God did design it then he is inept because why would a competent deity design a system where you use the same tube for breathing and eating? That is just asking for choking disasters! 🙄 3) Or that they won't take their relatives to hospital because they have prayed for them? Edited 21 July, 2020 by Matthew Le God
