The Ethics of God (Chris Neiswonger)

[cwfhjeff]

It's good to see an old friend. Chris actually went out of his way to take me down this road for a little while. I tried to hang for a time but I'm no Chris N., though I am certainly better off because of him. It's good to see you again after so long Chris. God bless,

Jeff

[smallmaniac]

Great video. I love me some apologetics.

[KripkeSaul]

Kant, Hume, who cares... They're essentially the same, both are totally overrated European philosophers...

By the way, Kant is pronounced 'cunt'!

[mandolinjoe]

My (our) calling is to lead people to an enlightened state so they call realize that the do for others ahead of their own agendas and needs..recquires sacrfice yet is so rewarding.....

[mandolinjoe]

[MADmentality]

someone once told me love would all save us

but how can that be look what love gave us

a world full of killing and blood spilling that world never came

and they say that a hero could save us

im not gonna stand here and wait

[mandolinjoe]

THe ten commandments are impossible to follow but can be followed as principles.....doing good isn't enough..following the Holy or righteous spirir is the answer......Jesus did say it is finished......?????

[MADmentality]

[Wrath0fKhan]

Its all about those vile wives, isnt it... LOL

[mandolinjoe]

The reason we are innocent is that a "loving" and "humane" god who created us.....knew tha twe would fall ( are human)" but did not protect us from unjust suffering ...26 ¶And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:26 ¶And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:..se we were made pure and in "god's" likeness....not having the knowledge of good and evil................

[Aragond68]

But this fulfills callingheyzeus's challenge.

Perhaps pre-Genesis 3 one might argue we may have been (past tense) innocent, without sin, but since that day "...There is no one righteous, not even one" (Rom 3:10) that is, none is innocent and without sin.

And "unjust suffering"?!

God didn't force us to sin. We do it willingly, every day. That He knew our sinful nature makes God no more responsible. We've got free will. Our suffering is very much of our own making. Thank God he provides a way out

[petekang1975]

People who blame specific Bible verses for the wrongs and evils of this world are the same who blame guns or knives for killing people. It's not the material tools or the ideas that kill, but the people with the motivation to harm others that use these things to achieve their goals. In the end, it's the issue of the human heart, which without the grace and mercy of God will remain evil and corrupt.

[MrNocompromise]

mandolinjoe....."innocent"? You err. No one is innocent before an Almighty, Righteous, Hol God. By what standard do you consider some innocent?

[mandolinjoe]

How to You apologize for this verse that led to innocent people being burnt at the stake??????..go for it

Exodus 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

[Glorthac]

You want witches to live? Actual people try to cast spells you know.

[smartwarlord]

@mandolinjoe

Witch was redefined, simply meant someone who casts spells. It is not Moses' or God's fault for witches being killed, it was the medieval mind's fault.

[topbon2ndvalve]

I'll answer your question if you can give me answers to these two questions:

Where does morality come from?

How do you define who's innocent and innocent of what?

Go for it!

[MADmentality]

the scripture refers 2 actual practitioners of the witch craft of that time which did and does hold power of this world and is capable of harming people

it permits killing a witch cause they were evil and dangerous

now wat happened during the witch trial well thats nothing more than early american settlers with little knowledge of science or biology being scared shitless of the death all around them and desperately seeking a way 2 calm the panic of the masses

[callingheyzeus]

mandolinjoe-

Where in the Bible does it say that any of us are innocent?????? Go for it.
