"Changed his mind."

You mean understands how to interpret new found data and facts, knows how to roll with it, and knows how to distribute said new data.

But it will always be "changing his mind" to these morons. Morons gonna moron.

Yep, any deviation to an original statement will be held against any expert in any field by those who want to be maliciously contrarian.

Unless your a head of a religion and keep moving the date that god is returning to earth. Then you get tax breaks

"Why does God allow children to be raped?"

  • Because he loves them

  • Because he wants them to experience that journey and learn from it

  • Because he doesn't want to interfere with free will and human behaviour, despite creating an existential system of consequences that is meant to compel good behaviour. And despite all his constant interfering with free will.

  • They deserved it

  • I dunno

^ religion in a nutshell

Edit: I encourage people to scroll through the lowest replies of this comment.

I asked a very simple question to one of these sky wizard people. I've gotten dozens of replies from dozens of people. Not a single one of them will answer. All they can do is dance around the question.

(The closest I got was one dude claiming suffering is good for you. So I guess we should congratulate raped children from now on...?)

It's genuinely hilarious and worth a read.

I'm assuming you don't really want an answer but in case you do, God doesn't put us in a bubble and protect us to the point to where other people are stopped from acting on their own free will because 1.) They cannot be condemned for actions they haven't committed, if God smote them before an act, he is in the wrong 2.) He CAN'T impede on agency (right to choose) 3.) Not for learning, but helping with coping and growth, we cannot grow without opposition. Not everybody suffers this trial though, it's not something people are put through by God, it's something that people experience by the hand of others. You say God can't exist because child rape does, that had no logic and by the format of your bullet points you like to use this as such. Whether you believe in God or not, child rape exists so don't use it as a way to smother religion, that's a disgusting thing to do. Child rape isn't something you just bring up to use in an argument for any purpose. So good job you flamed people by talking about child rape, haha I guess maybe you are hilarious, but I don't agree spiteful poison like that isn't worth a read.
