nomadpete Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) I stumbled across this humerous one minute play written by Stephen King. "An evening at god's" I post it here because I would never have thought he could write short entertaining stuff without some dark horror. https://www.read-any-book.net/online/573160 Edited January 24, 2023 by nomadpete 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Sounds far from intelligent design as it turned out. WE are ALL flawed, sinners and have fallen short of the Glory of God. 100% failure rate. AND it's OUR fault!! Nev 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry_Atrick Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Leviticus 24:16 says, “If anyone blasphemes the name of the Lord, let him die the death.”, which, according to the internet (modern day Bible, I guess), is a mortal sin. I don't know what an immortal sin is, as I can't comprehend how one can be committed when one is dead. However, on that basis, I guess I am a sinner, because even if I were to believe in a dog, then I would be a deist, which would mean that I would not believe in any of the Abrahamic or other "Lords". So, I am a sinner, and happy with that. But it's not my fault I am considered a sinner by people who believe in their lord, etc. That's their problem, not mine (only become mine when I am stoned to death because of it.. but then, who is the sinner?) 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Tuncks Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Has anybody met a real believer? I have not, well not since I was a kid. They all fail what I immodestly call "tunckses test" which requires the believer to act out his beliefs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry_Atrick Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 No they don't; that's why the preach fogiveness... seems many of institutions of the faith need it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Old Lev must've been one pissed-off prophet. I reckon if he was around these days he'd be a Trump-loving Incel with a grudge against the world, a member of Opus Dei, or both. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry_Atrick Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I dunno. At one stage, wasn't the Catholic church the biggest business in the world, along with some (al)mighty fine property holdings? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Had it's own Army and Taxes. Still has a special seat at the UN. . In some/many places you must be one to get anywhere.

facthunter Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Better than nothing. It's a "nominal" thing but never the less STRANGE to those of us not inside the Circle.. Same as "In God WE Trust" on the US currency. People don't question these things because they'd be pilloried but mostly because they don't really think about it.

onetrack Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Don't forget - God and Guns are the one and the same, in American thought patterns. They're indistinguishable to most Americans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
