Robertson: God Smote Israel's Sharon

Awww. All tuckered out from trolling. <3

You're the one that's trolling, not me.

I know you are, but what am I?

This thread needed pictures, fixed

Thank you, I am all about class. What I was referring to is that the criteria he is using in regards to Sharon, which is essentially committing an act against God, could easily be applied to his friend GWB's shenanigans in Iraq and elsewhere. I'm not hopeful that something bad will happen to him - his own actions are already coming back to haunt him - unfortunately, it is other people who are paying the price with their lives.

Hahahaha, first of all, if you knew anything, Robertson and Bush aren't friends. They dislike each other. Secondly, do you think God really liked it when Saddam Hussein was killing hundreds of thousands of his own people based on their race and religion? You really think God is going to be upset because the adults of the world decided to do something about that? Do you even believe in "God"?

You are hopeful that something bad will happen to him, you're just not man enough to admit it. Bush is being haunted because he freed Iraq? Hahaha, haunted by who, whiny hippies? I'm sure he's real sad that people like you hate him. Just like I'm real sad about it.

It could also be said that it was God's divine grace that kept Sharon, a 300lb 77year-old-man, alive all these years! lol

LOL! John Stewart said something like "Maybe Sharon had a stroke because he was old and fat?"

If a "god" did actually exist...I'd be the first in line to bitch slap him/her.

God is everything.

Could you be a little more vague?

Probably not. I will be less vague: "God" is "everything that exists everywhere".

Why would a giant penis bother him? Such intolerance!

Wow, thanks! I had no idea. LMAO

No problem. Whenenver a religious person starts talking about God, they are talking about "everything that exists everywhere". Knowing that helps make more sense out of a lot of the things religious people say.

Please stop...I am bored.

Stop what? Go read something else if you're bored.

I know, someone else that goes to that bar told me that the owner sometimes gets prissy like that. Their loss.

Fascinating. Do you therefore feel that Satan is in fact God, since "God" is "everything that exists everywhere"?

I don't know if there's any Satan. If it does exist, then it is a part of God.

Logical extension of thought. Since Evil and Good must exist as counterpoints to each other, then Satan and God must also exist as counterpoints. If this is a true conjecture, then we have a fascinating dilemma with the monotheistic god being two sided or two faced, similar to the Greek definition of Janus.

God is not "good". God is "everything that exists everywhere, good or bad".

You're right that there is always a balance between good and evil. God encompasses all of it. That's what makes God "all powerful". If there were some sort of counterbalance to God, God would no longer be "all powerful".

May I presume you are speaking entirely about the Christian God? In which case ...

After Adam & Eve's fall, Satan still had access to God's throne in heaven. This is seen in his appearances before God with the other angels (see Job 1:6,12; 2:1,7). It is clear that Satan has no authority in heaven, but he can appear there and accuse the brethren (cf. Revelation 12:10). Although Satan doesn't have authority in heaven, he does have authority in the earth (Matthew 4:8-9; Ephesians 2:2; 6:12; 1 John 5:19).

So God is both a good and evil entity that is responsible for everything that occurs everywhere?

Yea, those are just fancy stories designed to teach people things. The Christians, and I think the other religions that have one god, all say that God is "all powerful". If Satan is a counter balance of some sort to God, that would make God not all powerful.

Yes, God is everything that exists everywhere, "good" and "evil". All powerful, all knowing, etc. The Christian God is also called "all good", but that doesn't mean what a lot of people think it means. It actually is a way of explaining that everything "good" and "evil" is both necessary and "good". Good and Evil work off of each other, and if one didn't exist, the other could not exist.
