God says, forgive people.
God says, lol there are a lot of people irritating me let's kill off 99% of earth's population in a flood and leave one family to continue humanity. The LORD saw how great the wickedness of the human had become on the earth and that every thought they had was ONLY EVIL ALL THE TIME The LORD regretted that he had made human beings on the earth and his heart was troubled so the LORD said i will wipe from the face of the earth the human race i have created with them the animals the birds and the creatures that move along the ground for I regret that I have made them. But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD. Genesis 6: 5-8
This says people in those days were all evil all the time can you imagine that? I don't want to try.... they sinned the bible says the penalty for sin is death that is why Jesus came so that we don't have to have the same fate a them we can put our trust in God and be with him forever
He's just gone back on something he said, nope he said the penalty for sin is death that's... okay I suppose contradiction isn't the right word for that example. But it's the first that came to mind. The contradiction is where god seems like a hypocrite.
Also I'm sure that a lot of innocent children would have been killed in that flood
But, y'know, strive to be like god and do what he does - genocide.
The free will thing... okay fine I guess. (But I still hold that if god existed, in order to do what he's supposed to have done he'd be all-powerful, meaning he could just control this stuff. But he doesn't, he's allowed gay and bi people to exist without changing them, so he accepts them.) God gave us free will but told us what was right and wrong like a father telling his children not to touch the hot stove but the child does it anyway and gets hurt
The going against god's teachings thing... let's see. Homophobes hate gay and bi people. God said to love everybody, you said that yourself. So... yes, that's opposite to what he said. I do not hate Gay and Bi people I know they are wrong and that saddens me but there is no hate in my heart for them only love and sorrow...
And I'd rather this didn't become an argument about religion - I agree with Blue, seeing the word god this many times is a bit painful - so maybe just say what you have to on this and we'll leave it. Hopefully those other pages of this thread aren't like this... in the end this is the only thing that matters in the world whether or not I'm am right or wrong because if I'm right the consequences are horrible for you and I want to help so badly.... If i'm wrong then all I'll have done is to live my life in a way that has brought nothing but love and Kindness to humanity I just want to say there is not a doubt in my mind whether I'm right or wrong I already know but I want you to think about it for a sec WHAT IF YOU ARE WRONG I just woke up so sorry if this doesn't all make sense if you have questions feel free to reply!
