@isaq1961 How's freshman year of high school treating you?

[MsPerduta]

@isaq1961 If you buy some honey in your grocery store... do you consider that to be natural?

Why would you treat something that bees make different to something that man makes?

[isaq1961]

Obviously you can't deny the maker of a sony Camera. If I tell you that all these juice bottles or cook, Pepsi cans have been made by chance, you'd say I am crazy. Now can you tell me who made, designed and sorted the apples, tomatoes, potatoes, grapes etc.? Let's give another example, when you see a sony camera, you cannot deny its maker, man. Now look at your own body's camera, your eyes? Who made and desigend your eyes, your bodyily organs? The creator, the Almighty God.

[isaq1961]

Whenever you go to a grocery store, you'll see two type of products, one is natural such as fruits, vegetables , and the other one is man made, such as juice, cold drinks, cake, pizza etc. The natural products are made out of the soil and water by the help of the sun rays, and man made products are made out of natural products. When you see the man made products that they are designed in different shapes and sorted in different packages, now can you deny the existence of their maker, humans?

[cararacs]

[chromeninjar3d]

@s4ur0n420

I can't understand the Bible it makes no sense to me. It does not mean I don't believe in a divine creator and it doesn't mean I bash bibles... BTW "bashing bibles" does that mean criticising or endorsing?

[s4ur0n420]

@MsPerduta On another AAI vid you said youre not a christian, I took this to mean you are not religious oops, why try to hide youre dirty bible basher? I say this because religion has killed billions.
