Neither your family NOR mine. Humans and apes had common ancestors.

Which means at one point, something not an ape got spit out, and it was the only such mutant, and unable to reproduce with its brothers and sisters . . . and died out, as mutants do.

Gee, that makes sense.

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

But they have no abstract concept of non-materialistic things, such as 'meaning' or 'translation'. But apes and humans have.....

And no, I don't think we came from apes or vice versa. Humans and apes have common ancestors. That's a difference.

Same with elephants. Are we related to them, too?

They have self-recognition. They know, that the ape in a mirror is not another ape.

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

No. In fact apes HAVE the ability to 'express themselves' in a very similar way as humans.
They have self-recognition. They know, that the ape in a mirror is not another ape. They even have a notion of not only real things but also non-materialistic issues.

So you're saying that apes devolved from humans.

Interesting concept.

Yes, I can see how that would work, it all makes sense!

When Noah cursed Canaan and his descendants to be the servants of all others, they moved into Africa.

There, they split. Some became Negroes, and made up weird religious beliefs. They formed tribes, and warred among themselves, and got enslaved when they lost their wars. However, they did remain human.

Others, more degenerate in their sins, devolved and gradually transformed into the subhuman creatures we call "apes" today. But a tiny fragment of their humanity remains, which is why they can recognize themselves in mirrors.

Why does it always come down to bestiality in the end? "The chimp slut was asking for it! She knew what she was doing..."

Well God's not fooled, friend. He knows that the thing to do if you give in to temptation is to kill you and your chimp rape victim.

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

...People were Jewish before Jesus came down and even before that there were the Roman and Greek gods/ goddesses...

If we accept the Biblical account, then Judaism started with Abraham.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham : "...the most that can be said with some degree of certainty is that the standard Hebrew text of Genesis places Abraham in the earlier part of the second millennium BCE..."

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_greece : "Ancient Greece was a civilization belonging to a period of Greek history that lasted from the Archaic period of the 8th to 6th centuries BC to the end of antiquity (ca. 600 AD)..."

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_rome : "Ancient Rome was a thriving civilization that began growing on the Italian Peninsula as early as the 8th century BC..."

So we see that Judaism predates Greek and Roman culture by about 1,100 years.

...Again, learn your history.

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

You really shouldnt stereotype athiests, you may disagree strongly with their views and that's fine but not all are horrible people. Also I think it makes atheists better people that they can still love people and feel pity for them (which they do) even without reason. Also your first point is invalid because Hitler was a strong Christian, learn your history. And your point that Atheism is a mockery of Christianity is stupid because Atheism is pretty much the opposite of Christianity. The Past was not just Christianity, There were many religions before Christianity. People were Jewish before Jesus came down and even before that there were the Roman and Greek gods/ goddesses. Again, learn your history.

You need to shut it and learn the Bible.

Pointing out that there were (and are) hellbound people all across the whole world before Jesus came to give the chance to be saved will not save you from being in their number.

I'd quit going on your vain quest to please the false gods known as fairness and equality and realize that Jesus through His Word is THE ONLY WAY your stinking, pluralistic rump will escape eternal torment.

Praying for your soul,

If atheists are not all horrible people then why does God choose to punish them eternally?

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

Oh hush-up you nonbeliever. Burn in Hell, for God doesn't believe in atheists!

Well that's just silly! Of courseGod knows who believes in Him and who doesn't. He's the one who does the judging, remember? (Hebrews 9:27) Either He sees the Blood of Christ (Revelation 7:14), or He sees the sinner (John 3:18). That's how He knows who is qualified to go to Heaven and sing His praises for evermore! Praise Jesus!

Re: Ten points that CRUSH Atheism

Well, since you have only listed NINE points that 'CRUSH' atheism, I will discontinue your obviously brainwashed bigotry as benign -for you do not even have the mental capacity required to count to TEN.

Oh hush-up you nonbeliever. Burn in Hell, for God doesn't believe in atheists!
