Man. What a wretched fucking situation :(

I’ve never been as religious or compassionate as I should be but this shit rips my heart out. I really hope God gives comfort and healing to these people

>>936694506 (OP)
I'm sure some of the bodies will wash up where they'll be treated right. and by that I mean lubed up, penetrated, and then turned into Flickr sets

So why didnt God protect these Christians? All those Christians preachers told me these disasters are God's punishment.

>>936695391
Not only did he not protect them, he caused this to happen. Or not. Probably not.

>>936694506 (OP)
>I really hope God gives comfort and healing to these people
God doesn't exist

>>936695391
Thats not how it works

>>936695680
Thats also not how it works. God didnt cause this except through the mental gymnastics of it being a result of creation itself.

>>936695848
So it's out of God's control?

>>936695788
>making an assertion without evidence

All you can say is you dont gave evidence of God. You can’t assert God does not exist or you are committing the same fallacy as those who assert God does exist.

>>936695925
No. You are making illogical jumps.
God didn’t prevent it at best/worst.

But God didnt deliberately cause it.

>>936696018
No you are just not very bright. Its okay, like 1/3 -1/2 of people are basically just fleshy automatons

>>936694506 (OP)
trump is golfing. never forget that.

>>936696016
God could have stopped it and is often praised for apparently having stopped something that seemed inevitable. Why not stop this or protect the people?

>>936695934
I can say that there is no Christian god in the sense that the abrahamic religions fairy tales were stolen from other groups.

>>936696070
That's your way of dehumanizing your potential victims

>>936696378
e = Dunning Kruger2

>>936696161
First, disconnect from what people say. And honestly, especially if there are clergy. The whole Church system has basically gone the way of the Pharisees.

As to why God did not intervene? Because it would defeat the point.

The short of it is that God wants us to choose them despite the hardship. If God were like a magic wish fairy constantly making life awesome all the time then it would be an easy choice. Notice that whenever things go bad the first reaction is either anger at God or outright denial of Gods existence?

This is like saying you love your wife but then ditching her when she is sick because she can no longer have sex. You didnt actually love her, you just liked the sex. Sort of the same deal.

Also, hardship helps us grow. In the same way you cant constantly coddle your children like a helicopter parent and expect them not to come out fucked up.

Its kinda fucked but remember God sent their only son to die in a horrible manner.

>>936696162
Its the same story passed down a ton of times.

>>936696420
GOD DAMN IT

>>936696346
Are you denying it?

No. Just a fact that most people are basically elevator music inside. So dont worry about being stupid. You arent alone

Thinly veiled pedo thread

>>936696538
Well, probably not? There's some that are pretty much word for word(with names changed), some where the amount of people changed, there's some where the order is changed, and there's some where the whole meaning changed.

>>936696517
Pure unleaded copium, If that were the case everyone would have the same amount of hardship

>>936694506 (OP)
The sad part is retards will likely sit there and if no one else is found they'll cope and say god works in mysterious ways, and if there are people found it was a result of the praying they did.

>>936697117
Kill yourself

>>936697156
Why don't you ask your God to smite me?

>>936696984
Lmao thats dumb.
For one the hardship is product of randomness, choices made, and more often than not demonic influence (dont balk at this, yall gonna blame God but not the literally evil dudes deliberately trying to make life miserable specifically so you blame God??)

Also, your pretense is laughable. Is every person the same? Do all children struggle with the same things?

>>936695848
So god doesn't have the power to stop these disasters from happening? Then he's not omnipotent, is he? Or is it that he just doesn't care enough to do anything to begin with? It's one or the other. And don't give me that "freewill" copout; I don't think these girls wanted the free will to choke to death on mud.

Either god couldn't protect them, or didn't want to. Or, more likely still, DOESN'T EXIST.

>>936695391
>All those Christians preachers
Evangelicals are not Christians.

>>936696650
> whole meaning changed.

Most people still believe Adam and Eve was about a literal apple and about Eve cucking Adam with a demon and Cain being a nephilim. Hence “original sin” being that we are all part fallen.

God does. Could also just make us all babies in a giant nursery forever.

Then he's not omnipotent, is he? God is.

>Or is it that he just doesn't care enough to do anything to begin with?
God cares, but again, intervening every time we get a boo boo defeats the purpose and isnt good for us.


>It's one or the other.
Its not. You can care and be capable and still not intervene. In the same way I dont constantly prevent my kids from making mistakes.

>And don't give me that "freewill" copout; I don't think these girls wanted the free will to choke to death on mud.

I dont think you understand the concept.

>Either god couldn't protect them, or didn't want to. Or, more likely still, DOESN'T EXIST.

Or none of this.

>>936697353
Not at all man. Religion as an institution is fucked and given that most people ARE NPCs, is obvious that lots of them would flock to Church(TM)

>>936697198
I'm not blaming anyone, I'm just saying you're full of crap, if God wants us to choose his dispite hardship, it wouldn't make any sense to have that be random
and God would've had to make the demons

>>936697291
I was talking more along the lines of Ecclesiastes

>>936694506 (OP)
Jesus loves the little children. Except those kids who are dead. And fuck their parents too.

>abrahamic mental gymnastics thread

They're starting to become the worst part of the board. This Christian grasping by zoomzooms desperate for tradition is deeply depressing and telling.

>>936697624
They didn't die, Jesus just took them to heaven and Satan took the rest.

>>936697527
Dude you realize how complex the universe is? I mean nothing is truly random, but the complex series of seemingly unrelated events butterfly effecting their way into tragedy is not a preplanned thing. God knew about is because Gods omniscience basically gives him Tivo to every conceivable universe and timeline - which are infinite. Hence how God can know your choices and you still have free will.

More the point, God didnt make the demons - they were angels who rebelled - nor does God direct their actions.

God just minimizes direct intervention.

Its also really important to understand Gods ability to heal and wash it all away. Like, think back to something that really upset you when you were 5. Do you still cry about it now? Probably not. Now imagine being able to get over a life time of suffering instantly. And not only that, none of it literally matters anymore. Like this awful because of all the pain and suffering it breeds - but Gods promise is that they will all be reunited in paradise. Assume for a second this is actually true, you could see how upon death everything would be fine.

So God understands that this hurts a lot. But to God its like watching a 5yr old cry over dropping their ice cream. Like it sucks but it will be okay.

>>936697451
You're not someone to be taken seriously

>>936697882
NTA, but you're contradicting here
>God knew about is because Gods omniscience basically gives him Tivo to every conceivable universe and timeline
>God didnt make the demons - they were angels who rebelled - nor does God direct their actions.
God made the angels knowing they'd be demons, meaning he made the demons.

>>936694506 (OP)
This is the same god who (apparently) flooded the entire earth. You think he gives two squirts about Texas?

>>936697882
I can totally understand how this makes sense, to the mentally ill.

God killed those kids because Texas is a shithole and God is tired of it.

Remember: when weather happens and people die, it’s because our all-loving God is mad. Texas conservatives caused this, they shouldn’t complain. Accept God’s punishment or join those kids in HELL.

One time he drowned MILLIONS of kids in a flood (Noah’s Ark story). This time he drowned like a dozen or so as a warning to Texas.

Stop being cunts, Texas, and almighty God will stop killing your kids.

Thoughts and prayers.

I'm going to do a bit of exploring in Minecraft tonight. The Deep Dark is a terrifying biome, but I can't resist the call of the diamonds.

>>936696517
God is a fucking sadist then. Fuck God. It's not like he'll save you from drowning in a storm he created.

>>936698574
He is all-loving, but drowns infants. He is all-powerful, but limited to one son. He is all-knowing, but you have free will.

Christians are truly retarded.

>>936698645
Go pray to your god of climate change then, pagan. Go pray to him and ask him not to send floods.

>>936698797
I don't think I've ever heard of a climate changer claiming an omnipotent god.

>>936698797
I already did and the Goddess (wrong gender you limp dick goy) of climate change drowned your Christian girls.

All you can do is shitpost while we depredate your pews lol.

>>936698946
Climate change is their fucking god. It is a graven image and a false idol where man believes that they are the ones who have control over this world and the weather, and that is the most conceited idea we could ever come up with.

>>936698797
you're just underlining how stupid you are with this post

>>936698797

Oh look, the all powerful Christian god can’t stop pagans from drowning Christians.

Mysterious ways!

>>936699054
maybe you missed the omnipotent part?

>>936699079
Yeah climate change believers think that mankind is omnipotent. You’re not listening to me.

They believe that man has become God.

>>936697451
>God does. Could also just make us all babies in a giant nursery forever.
Why is it always this same tired, absurd "slippery slope" argument from you christcucks? That if god protected us from *thing outside our control like the weather or cancer*, then he'd just have to do everything else for us too? It doesn't make any sense at all if you think about it for more than the 8 seconds you did when typing it out.
>God cares, but again, intervening every time we get a boo boo defeats the purpose and isnt good for us.
Ah so god cares, but also thinks little girls drowning in mud is beneficial for us.

If your god existed he sounds like he'd be a right insufferable, megalomaniac cunt. I sleep easy knowing he's a figment of people too scared of the oblivion of death to accept reality.

>>936699126
>liberals are omnipotent

Looks like those blue haired homos are more loving than your god.

>>936699126
>They believe that man has become God.
No, and I don't want to pronoun it out by using "they", I'll just go with I or me. I would say people saying that the byproducts of combustion of fossil fuels is leading to a warming pattern, is not them saying they have control of it, just that there are effects of past/present and possibly future times.

I think what a lot of anti-religion retards don't understand about Christianity is that they believe your soul exists forever
Therefore, dying in this form is less impactful than atheists' arguments about it imply

Then why are we wasting tax dollars on searching for them?

>>936695391
Going home to be with God is not a punishment.
Sitting in pews forced to listen to an idiot in a funny hats sermon, is.

>>936699627
Then why are their Christian families sobbing on the evening news, if they think their little angels are in some better place? It's the greatest contradiction religious faggots display; the grief is almost like a tacit admission that you know they're just worm food now, so it is actually worth grieving.

>>936696162
It was the other way around.

>>936699788
Same thing with abortion. Aborted babies would go see god, right? Or is god sending 4 weeks old babies to hell?

Or the Christians know those babies are worm food now.

>>936699820
uh, no. Judaism is like the beginner for the other 2 main ones, but Judaism itself was stolen(shocker) from others.

>>936699725
I know some of them personally

>>936695391
god gave the builders the intelligence to not build in a floodplain and the parents the wherewithal to not send their kids to a camp built in a floodplain. this is just the natural result of free will. also death isn't as big a deal to christians at it is to godless atheists as they consider the physical world to be a waiting room to eternity, not the end of all things.

>>936699888
Double double trips.

Proof God isn’t real.

>>936699922
so in the train analogy, god doesn’t pull the lever and lets kids die lol

all loving and all knowing!

>>936700026
god isn't at the switch. we are. we get to put down the tracks, build the trolley, lay down in front of it, and whine because nobody stopped us. or we can decide to do something else entirely. you sound like you need a good domme to make your decisions for you. seems like free will isn't your thing.

>>936695934
That's retarded, you're retarded. Burden of proof lies with the person making a claim, not the person denying. Anon is denying the initial claim that a God exists which OP hopes will give comfort and healing to flood victims. If I say "the Brain Raper God of My Dickhole exists," the faggot saying she doesn't doesnt have a burden to prove me wrong. Don't be retarded.

i mean, not as dope as not letting all those people die in the first place would have been
also not as dope as rewinding time and erasing the disaster if he didn't want it to happen in the first place but just kinda spaced out on some strong edibles when he should have been keeping an eye on Texas
but still pretty dope

Pretty sure they don't anymore.

God definitely can save anyone whom he chooses. Why not save these particular people? I don't honestly think anyone here can answer that. Neither can I because I don't know these people's lives or what they did and didn't do. Nor will I sit here and question
God. Job tired that and it didn't work out well. Anyone can claim Christianity but living it is another aspect. If you want to get into some hard truths that aren't talked about at your local churches, we can. I personally am a believer. I have seen things no man can explain. Some of it documented by others.

Matthew 10:37-38
King James Version
37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.


I prayed earlier for all whom are affected.


Galatians 6:2

Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

>>936703362
> I don't honestly think anyone here can answer that.
There are two options here. Either there is no god. Or he is a sociopath.
Whatever you are the most comfortable with

Interesting response but no. Some people he doesn't like. Some he hates. He gives all grace but only a few get a hedge of protection. He has a personality. He can easily become offended and you probably wouldn't understand why until it is explained. He also has no tolerance for half Christians.

Revelation 3:15-16
King James Version
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

I didn't care about the religious implications but I think it's very sad. Some of those girls were cute AF. If I was a little closer I'd go and help with the rescue / recovery and see if I could get a piece.

Death is just a transition from mortal body to immortal soul. Is it evil for God to allow that to happen?

>>936695391
Why does the logfag shill?

Their parents should be happy. Innocents go straight to heaven. If they really, truly believed in god, they would know all these girls just had their ticket punched straight to heaven to be with Jesus. Something tells me they don’t see it that way - but they should. Unless of course deep, deep down they know there is no such thing as god. Unless hanging in the back of their minds is the nagging sensation that the whole thing doesn’t make sense, and feels illogical. Unless they feel it is all just silly superstitious nonsense.
For real though - it’s very, very sad. God is a cunt.
