Same post, just the answer to several of your comments was the same. Do you mean by dying and rising again? Then we agree. This is something that cannot be shown scripturally. Nor does it make sense when compared to the gospel Paul was given, stated here: Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you...

Sometimes so are people who don't like to follow the law. That one has been debunked. The father left him, the other family members wouldn't take him, so the feds took care of him, and reunited him with his father, eventually. You should reassess your news sources (kind of like the appendix...

I didn't think you would have an answer. I don't see anything evil about enforcing the law. Do you?

What about ICE is evil?

How do you lip sync on the radio?

But you have little evidence to back it up. We can speculate all day long, but if we don't then back it up with scripture, there's no value in it, and in fact it can lead you away from truth. What is my "sentient spirit"? Where do we find such language in the bible? See above. See above. But...

I appreciate that. But what does it say about your education, which teaches that we evolved from lesser creatures? Nobody presented blacks as apes. Somebody presented the Obamas as apes, along with Joe Biden, if I understand correctly. But why is the portrayal of blacks as apes considered...

What do you define as "progress"? That I'll start agreeing with you? Why is that the only progress you'll accept? Focusing for a moment on the appendix again, you were actually speaking an untruth about it. I countered with conflicting evidence. Who should be agreeing with whom on that count? If...

If like the appendix, then there is still some useful function. https://principia-scientific.com/science-reset-our-appendix-goes-from-useless-organ-to-gut-guardian/ Yes. Only one "all" there.

That's a compliment coming from a two-year-old.

Not really. Groups of people are different colors because of their DNA. Their DNA is inherited from their ancestors, which are their family. Thus, if we support and help family over non-family, and it is morally acceptable, then it is morally acceptable to support and help someone who looks like...

Government would include entities that perform government functions, included making and expressing the law, with the punishment for breaking it, as well as executing the punishment. How do these terms not describe God in the Garden?

Is it wrong to support your own family over others, whether you think your family is superior to others or not? I don't really see why it would take hundreds of thousands of years to figure this out. Knowing that all men are equally capable of heinous sins, is it wrong to trust relatives over...

In the Garden, they had liberty to eat or not eat of the tree. Government (God in this case) spelled out the punishment for disobeying, which limited how far they could take their liberty..

This isn't true. Before the flood, there was apparently too much liberty, and the result was the destruction of the world. Afterward, God instituted capital punishment, which is a government function.
