Ridiculous! Of course they did, They didn't go around shouting, "Hey! You with the fine head of hair." They knew exactly how to anger a prophet of The Lord.

The children would all have been taught:
Le:19:32: Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the LORD.
La:4:16: The anger of the LORD hath divided them; he will no more regard them: they respected not the persons of the priests, they favoured not the elders.
1Tm:5:17: Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

1Tm:5:19: Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.

It is a lesson to us all.

They're kids! They don't know what they're doing.

I guess God thought that would get their attention.

You seem to think children know these things. Let me tell you something. They. Do. Not. Care. About. God. Or. Jesus. They couldn't care less. They live life like it should be lived, and sadly, people loose their childhood when they grow up.

Yeah, it sure got their attention... They died because they were being kids.

Re: Volcanos and Earthquakes - yet more proof God created the world for Man

Actually, no. Only 6 books sold more than a 100 million copies and your precious bible is no where among them.

If that's what you call inspirational, I'd hate to see what you find horrible.

You trust Wickedpedia? Use it as a source on your next term paper.



As far as what I find horrible...I reckon the most horrible thing in the world is when people are exposed to the Pure Love of Our Lord Jesus Christ and continue sinning.

(Hebrews 10:26) "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins."

The Bible (KJV1611) is indeed the best selling book of all time – and here are two references (for the dim witted).

http://www.booksellerworld.com/bestselling-booksever.htm

The Bible (KJV1611) is action-adventure, drama, comedy, all non-fiction, and the Word of God all rolled into one – and the sales figure prove it.

Yes, this is a great tradition. God kills some hopeless sinners in order to let the survivors learn a valuable lesson. What of it?

There's nothing wrong with it It's more informative than some book that crazies like you trust for no reason.

That is every version of the Bible, not just the KJV, and I wonder how many were bought because they had to be...

Action? Maybe, but it's only horror action.
Adventure? That is highly doubtful.
Drama? Definitely. And it's the worst kind of drama. The drama that doesn't make any sense, and is just there to be there.
Comedy? Don't make me laugh, there's no bit of comedy in the bible, unless you count the utter horribleness of it, which is funny.
Non-fiction? Where's the proof that it's not fiction?
The Word of God? It doesn't exist. It's just something to help idiots like you sleep at night.

How is it great to kill people who did nothing but be themselves?

Re: Volcanos and Earthquakes - yet more proof God created the world for Man

God did it so it is great by definition.

By "be themselves" you of course mean, "recklessly and wilfully breaking God's commandments."

You non-believers are kinda dense, no?

God did it, so it's not factual by definition.

And no, I mean they did what every kid does. Without caring, because they don't know what they're doing.

And you're the one's who are dense, believing in some mystical being that you have no proof of.

Are you suggesting people would make a tale like this or The Flood up? Why would you do that?

Of course I am. The imagination of humanity is endless. The bible is fiction, plain and simple, and there's no way you can prove otherwise.

The burden of proof is on the one who is making the claim, and you can't prove a negative. Therefore there is a God and Jesus is His Son. QED.

So according to you, based on nothing but your own opinion, God doesn't exist and every Christian ever has been deluded and led up the garden path by story-tellers?

Wow! You really don't muck about when it comes to getting yourself sent to Hell.

Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:

Luke 12:10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

No, I can't, but you can't prove that he exists. I believe we're at an impasse.

Not my own opinion. Millions of people agree with me. And pretty much. People want to believe in something, they want to think that life isn't just random chance. That is why god exists. To give humanity something to hold onto.

A million people can believe a foolish thing and it is still a foolish thing.

God has told you He exists, made you and given you an instruction book on how to please Him but you still want more.
