- God created Hitler in his own image.
- If Gods' image is Hitler, God is a Nazi

If i claim God is a Nazi this never ending argument has come to completion as per Internet rules of engagment.

You may now resume your regular activities.

I declare rule 34.

Godwin's Law strikes again!!

[Alawen Everywhere]

In purist's world, no one writes anything unless they are F U R I O U S.

In my world, I write a lot. Almost as much as I read, which is really a lot.

Pray with me.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, pardon.
Where there is doubt, faith.
Where there is despair, hope.
Where there is darkness, light.
Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Peace to you, brother purist.

You do realize that Godwin's law states that by bringing up Hitler and Nazis, you lost the argument, right?

What gives you such certainty might I ask? It's fairly obvious he's a plagiarized mixture of other deities who didn't exist

clarification.

I'm pretty certain some charismatic dude named Jesus existed, but as far as being the son of "god", feeding the multitudes with bread crumbs, and foot surfing without a powerboat...those I'm not so sure about.

Zen Master Huang-Po was walking with a man. When they reached a river, the man walked right across the water without breaking stride. Huang-Po said, "If I had known he was that kind of man, I would have broken his legs before he reached the water.".

(Yes there is a moral there...just don't feel like spelling it out)

Good thing he wasn't with Jesus, I guess.

Right,

Whatever side I was on just lost.

Next question, do you believe i was on YOUR side? If so are you an idiot?

I'm confused by this. What makes you pretty certain of that? There are no first-hand accounts written of Jesus. The name Jesus is inconsistent with his supposed heritage. There are no records of anyone like him in a place and time when extensive records were kept. All accounts of Jesus arose almost a hundred years after he supposedly lived. It's pretty likely that someone (maybe Paul) invented Jesus and start presenting the stories as reality.

You either have faith or you don't. There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of Jesus. (Or Abraham, or Moses, or the Exodus, or Muhammad, if you want to get into that.)

[Alawen Everywhere]

I got myself off on a tangent and I've been studying the historicity of Muhammad tonight. It's just as bad as the Jesus situation, despite being just 1400 years ago.

One of the big problems here are the languages used. At the point these sacred texts were recorded, all of the Semitic languages lacked vowels and they were mostly recorded from notoriously unreliable oral traditions. These literacy and alphabet problems severely compromised recordings, making them conveniently easy to translate in many directions.

TL;DR: lol @ these fairy tales from illiterate, donkey-riding nomads

And thats the game.... thanks for coming.
As soon as someone plays the 'God doesn't have to play by the rules' card, there's no going back.
All logic and legitimacy to the discussion just went out the window.

sigh.

That's some dumb shit right there. (In fact it's already been explained earlier in the thread.)

If you're too stupid, or uneducated, to figure out why you're even more retarded than I thought.
