And so, more arguments against worshiping god. If god loves us, then why does he create people who go against his word and will go to hell? Is he actually a dick? Or is he not omnipotent? At least Cthulu doesn't discriminate based on sex, sexual orientation, age or race. Well, at least God isn't beaten by little more than a dumbass hero and a dead half-elf hippie mage chick. From inside. That's pretty pathetic of Cthulu. Oh way, that was Avoozl that it happened to, nevermind. I get the two mixed up.

The title of this thread showed so much progress from the Church...and then it degenerated into the same shit as always. What a pack of bastards.

If god is all knowing, then why doesn't he stop Satan from doing this?

Well, it's official. They will never accept LGBT people, ever. In fact, accepting that it is an unchangeable aspect of their being has just made it worse, as now they can say that gays are literally Satanic. Whoop dee doo. Feel that Christian Love.

Kind of destroys their free will argument doesn't it?

If we destroy all their aguments, that won't stop them. Maybe some of them, who will become the next saner generation (Pope accepts Evolution) but the majority will keep their contraditing views.

Zoroastrianism started in the 1000- 600s Iran, and Judaism started in the 1200s and likely became monotheistic in the 700s, before the Babylonian exile. ...which doesn't necessarily contradict anything I said. I said Judaism picked up on Zoroastrianism. I didn't say it spawned from Zoroastrianism. Kinda like Christianity has picked up a whole bunch of pagan stuff. Do you have evidence? Many cultures have similar stories and characters in their myths, and it doens't mean it picked up any of them, which I asume you mean "borrowed"

Except it's not necessarily borrowed, as there's a mingling of cultures that leads to an output that has aspects of both (even if one much more strongly than the other), but is really neither.
As for christianity picking up pagan rituals, practices, and holidays, that was in large part in order for that region to not completely reject the imposed religion, and so that they could "win them over" after a couple generations. Of course, this also lead to christianity itself having drastic changes that eventually lead to a lot of schisms and even more contradictions than it started off with, but like the cultures they dominated it happened slowly so they didn't notice the changes piling up.

Not in Canada, and a bunch of other countries and US provinces. States, lexikon. You mean states. Canada has provinces. The United States, as one could gather from the name, does not.

....what the fuck did they teach you in school exactly? Because the United States are made up of 50 individual states last time I checked.
