  Wow, insulting anonymous strangers on the internet without them knowing! Now that’s what I call integrity.

  Yes, you guys are all right. I should be thankful that God invited me over to his house and I shouldn’t complain about the fact that he force-fed me razors for twelve years because his drapes are lovely! Yes, our loving God granted me the privil- well, that‘s not exactly true since I have no choice over whether or not I’m born. So I was forced to exist by God. Well, at least he doesn’t just judge me off the bat. He waits until he really knows me as a person- wait, wasn’t there this one chick who ate an apple six thousand years ago? Yeah, apparently that means I am born a sinner. So, I’m forced to begin existing as a sinner. If I don’t get over being a sinner, I’ll go to Hell! Well, at least this world that God has forced me to exist on is filled with wonderful things that’ll convince me to repent. Things like SIDS, aneurysms, earthquakes, and other things that can kill me out of the blue for no reason! Gee, you’d think that, if God cared so much to have me on his planet, he’d have removed all the pointless, horrible rubbish like deserts, oceans, and polar tundras. Well, I guess he’s busy feeling the eternal bliss of his own existence without any effort, like all omniscient, omnipotent beings. Yeah, God really worked hard to put me here, by which I mean he literally, by definition, didn’t work at all, ever.

  Boy, I do love it when an anonymous stranger tells me what I would do in a certain situation regarding something completely irrelevant to any point I was actually making! Oh, tell me what I’d do when Jesus comes to Earth! Seriously, I don’t know what to do without your obvious insight and command over my being!

  Hey, since you are totally so eager to reply to my post without actually addressing my points, I thought I might present a little dilemma to your rape situation. Is rape wrong because God says its wrong or does God say rape is wrong because it’s wrong?

  In the first situation, morality is based off God’s whims. Because of this, anything can be moral or amoral according to God; morality becomes an arbitrary designation. “Poof! Today, rape is moral! Get to it! Why are you questioning me? Yes, I know rape is detrimental to society’s well-being, but y‘all’s is sinners, so of course you’d be against rape because not raping is a sin! Haha, yes.” Doesn’t that sound eerily similar to how Christians treat homosexual couples when those couples point out the mistreatment they face?

  In the second situation, God is merely pointing out morals, not creating them. So, yeah, why do we need him to do that for us? If morals exist outside of God’s influence, why don’t we give credit to those morals, not God?

  So, those are your options; either morals are arbitrary and subject to irrational change thanks to God or God is unneeded. Which one do you prescribe to?

  According to Internet Law, when you capitalize more than three words for emphasis in your argument, you automatically forfeit every ounce of credibility you have. Also, he’s just objectively wrong, so yeah.

  Yeah, no. No, no. You’re wrong.

  @GirlNurse

  So, we are responsible to God and we have to follow his rules. He, however, is not responsible to anyone and he can do whatever he wants. Oh, and it’s moral because he says so. Is that your view on morality?

  Wait, what? You guys do know that I mean literal slaves, right? As in our founding fathers, especially Thomas Jefferson, ordered for tribes who were held against their will by larger tribes to be forced onto a cramped boat, half of them dying from disease and mistreatment, headed for America, where their families were broken up and sold. From then on, these people were treated as subhumans, even by the founding fathers. Hey, that was the culture then. Thank goodness we have a morality that develops along with society as we become more aware of the problems around us. Unlike the Bible, which thinks that slavery is a-okay always.

  Seriously, is slavery analogous to TV addiction to you guys?

  lol, forgot the question mark. Also, here’s a cool analogy: needing the ten commandments to maintain a moral society is like needing a rainbow to maintain colors. Or a science textbook to maintain science. Or an image of the brain to maintain thought. Okay, that was several analogies, but it gets my point across, right?
