10 ways jesus changed the world

There are so many ways to prove God is not real and pretty much 0 to prove that he is real. I'll give a few examples:

1) They say God knows everything, has the power to do anything, and is as pure as pure can get (complete opposite of evil). These 3 things together are impossible for God to have (unless you believe what is written in the a - c short summarized section below this)

(a) If God is pure good and all-knowing then He must just sit around powerless up in Heaven and watch these tragic earthly events unfold because if He were all three, He would obviously have no choice but to prevent the heinous crimes that take place in our society, for example a drunken driver kills a car full of teenagers, or a little girl gets raped and murdered, etc. etc.

If God is pure good and all-powerful than He must have no idea what is happening on planet Earth because if he did know of these tragic events in day to day life He would use his super powers to prevent them from occurring.

[c] Finally (and my personal favorite): If God is all-knowing and all-powerful than He must be a very evil and sadistic, merciless, cruel, ruthless, and tyrannical God because He knows of all the sick and twisted things that go on this Earth, has the power to change any event at the snap of his finger, and yet doesn't use his super powers to do so.

To summarize (a) through [c]:

(a) God is pure good / all-knowing AND POWERLESS

God is pure good / all-powerful AND CLUELESS (doesn't have the slightest inkling of what is going on in the world)

[c] God is all-knowing / all-powerful AND PURE EVIL

2) Just thinking about all the silly fictitious fairy tales in the bible:

a: Jonah sitting inside of a whale, just chilling and relaxing, then coming out alive and well

b: Noah getting one male and one female of every animal in the world and loading them up on a boat (Was it for 40 days? If so, how did he feed the at least 10,000 different animals he went out and collected? And how big was this Ark that he built to hold all of these animals?)

c: Moses talking to God in a burning bush, parting oceans

d: The ages of all the characters (living to 500 years old, 1000, 950, it was ridiculous how long these people lived in a world with no medicine)

e: Sampson ---- Strongest man on earth with his hair, weak as a snail if you cut off his hair

f: Jesus walking on water, rising from the dead, curing the sick, giving sight to the blind, etc. etc.

3) They say if you add all the ridiculous ages up from start to finish (including all the guys that lived to be 900 years old <yeah right>) then you get the amount of time life has been on this earth.....Turns out the earth is 4 or 5 billion years old and according to the bibles inaccurate calculations, the earth is about 6,000 years old.

4) As we all know when the bible was written science was not up to par. So there is all this talk about monsters and dragons and devils and angels and Gods and whatnot in the book of Revelations. There is a part in the bible, Revelations Chapter 12 or 13, verse 4....Where it speaks of a giant dragon that will whip his tail and fling one-third of all the stars in the universe onto the earth. If there are 70 sextillion stars (70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars <---that many zeros) then how could it be possible to fling a third of them down to the little old earth? It has been said that if you take all the grains of sand from all the earth's beaches and all the earth's deserts, and times that number by 10, then you have about the same number of stars in the universe. To get a perspective on how big one star is (the sun), check this: You could actually fit 1 million earths onto the surface of the sun. The sun is just 1 star and there are stars that make the sun look like a jolly rancher. So this dragon must have had one very long tail! Although some will argue a third of the stars means a third of the angels from Heaven. But what makes more sense: The insane author was writing in crazy codes (dragon = satan , stars = angels) or that the science was so pathetic back then that the insane author actually thought there were maybe a few hundred stars in the universe, and you could fit all the stars on the earth's surface?

Case closed.

[NickD 203]

Met hundreds of nuns in my life, all wearing wedding bands, all brides of Christ, wondered about that. Over a two thousand year span, has to be thousands and thousands of women like that, what does Mary Magdalen have to say about all this?

No conclusions, just questions.
