How do you attempt to rationalise with the completely irrational?

Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

That being said, human beings have no power in relation to angelic power,
so "god-like" powers would stand as a sufficient simile compared to crude primates who have zero supernatural power.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Why are "peaceful protesters" hanging around a riot zone?
Why are "peaceful protesters" only doing so at night?
Why are "peaceful protesters" blocking the police from dealing with the violent ones?
Why are "peaceful protesters" pretty much indistinguishable from the violent ones in the way they dress?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

The fourth option is that God created us and desires that we live, despite the evil we do. This is where God has created us with degrees of freedom that allow things to progress so we can live instead of just destroying things and starting over. I'm not surprised that Hypatia does not know this much.

So:
God is capable of stopping evil
He is willing to stop evil
God will stop evilLast edited by seer; 07-24-2020, 03:20 PM.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

It's hard to argue these aren't two sides of the same coin and extremely rare.
Why are "peaceful protesters" only doing so at night?
Why are "peaceful protesters" blocking the police from dealing with the violent ones?
That being said, the ratio of unhinged actors to hinged non-actors can't be ignored despite what social media, CNN, and FOX fear-mongering tells us.
Why are "peaceful protesters" pretty much indistinguishable from the violent ones in the way they dress?

The ratio of unhinged to hinged must be considered, was my point.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
