Still and all, why bother? Here's my answer. Many people need desperately to receive this message: I feel and think much as you do, care about many of the things you care about, although most people do not care about them. You are not alone. --Vonnegut

I can't watch the video on this computer, but correct me if I'm wrong: the AFA is busy telling us that god is love and this is what he does to us if we disobey. Am I correct?
Dear HaShem,
When did you move alaska to mexico?
I think the point of the video is more that kids are corrupted by US culture than that we deserved it.
JA--
Seriously?
Come on.
Don't be a part of spreading the stereotype and propaganda...
Question: How do you kick out an omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent being?
Answer: If it isn't omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent.
FW, skcorefil:
The conclusion of the video is "you shall reap as you sow."
rod:
I don't get it.
Sadie:
I don't get it.
BBIM:
For all the fuss Christians and Muslims make when someone attacks/criticizes/mocks God/Jesus/Allah, you'd think God/Jesus/Allah is a defenseless three year old, not the all-powerful creator of the universe.
It came across as a 'do as we say or people will die' kind of thing.
Quite disgusting actually. As if an 'all loving' God will kill innocent people to prove a point..... [shakes head saddly].

But Sadie - these people call themselves Christians... How is JA spreading propaganda?
Yeah, I never got that bit. By my reckoning, an omnipotent being is the last thing that needs human help.
cyber:
But don't you see. When you define god as love, or god as all loving, any action of that being becomes a "loving act" - even when it supposedly drowns the world's population.

That gets me too. I don't understand why God demands our attention, worship and love (to say nothing of our prayers & devotions). He certainly doesn't need them - why would He - so why is He so demanding?
Cyberkitten - Still not *getting* Religion.... [grin].

I'm tired of explaining and being accused of forming a "No True Scotsman" argument. So...
Yeah.
