No one has to make you look like an idiot - you have done a first-class job of that yourself without any help from anyone, except maybe your Elders.

Chattel
noun [ C or U ]
a piece of personal property, including something that can be moved, or rights such as copyright and patents, but not usually including land and buildings:
Examples:
(i) If your husband dies intestate you will inherit all personal goods and chattels such as the furniture and car, plus the assets up to £125,000.
(ii) Where a chattel is unlawfully on the plaintiff’s land and has caused actual damage, the plaintiff may retain the chattel until the damage has been paid for.
(iii)It is appalling that in some divorce situations, kids are treated like chattel, like the dishwasher or the retirement account.

Ok ,I made a mistake.Name calling people when they make a mistake.Thats not good is it.
And please stop calling me a troll.I am the victim of online trolls.I dont try and make people feel bad,directly or indirectly,which is the definition of a troll
Chattel slavery based on race for all non-Hebrew people (non-Jews, gentiles) was authorized directly by God:
Leviticus 25:44-46:
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way.

Robroy.I told you the proof is all around you.But,just out of intrest,what would you imagine the oroof to look like.Lets suppose I said I had absolute proof.What would you expect to see.?
Ok, so.I do not doubt that a bloke called Jesus (pronounced phonetically hay soos) Christ,.or Christus lived in the Middle East,.(he was more than likely black,.and nothing like portrayed in pictures,.where he looks more European caucasian for some bizzare reason) ,
He was a figure in history, same as I do not doubt William ther Conqueror lived , the problem I have is whether or not he had super powers and that he was the son of (a) god.
But let’s go with it for arguments sake fir a minute.
It was 2000+ years in history that he was alive, if he was as he claimed, why has he not come back?
Why has it taken him so long to come back?
Why has he stayed away?
Dont answer thosr questions with religious b/s blurb…as you know as much as me in terms of real answers.
There has been 2 wars involving the whole of (his allegedly) world, why did he not rock up in 1914, and say…‘This is not what I planned, sort yourselves out,.or I will end it’’ …or words to that effect.
I put it to you that he was a prophet and philosopher with illusions of grandeur and hat he actually believed the son of god thing himself in his own head,.and the history of his parentage was all part of his fantasy.
Those claims along with a few David Blaine type sophisticated tricks got him crucified,.as the.Romans did not like him gobbing off.
After his death the legends prevailed , and progressed, …started and believed by people like yourself.
That’s my version of events in simple terms and modern language…aka The Gospel according to Rob.
Sorry if it sounds flippant, but I genuinely find it difficult to take all this stuff seriously.
What you term as proof can be all discounted with science,nie REAL PROOF, where as what you choose to believe, whether it be because of terminal gullibility or the fear of death,.or both, is merely stuff written down,.(and grossly exaggerated) by random blokes in ancient times, with no real substance.
I still find it both fascinating and downright incredible that some people in modern society believe it , let alone let it run (and ruin) their lives.
I remember Jesus from Rock Concerts in the 70s, always dancing at the front.
I wasn’t sure he was real but according to this he was: Jesus Jellet :the ■■■■ festival dancer
Getting a religious nutter to stop talking to you, is rather satisfying.
You know you really got under their skin. When they haven’t got Bible verses to counter you with, they are utterly lost.
My offer of 5 camels still stands, for now.
Never let emotion get in the way of business…

l try and answer your questions on the merits but bearing in mind,if you dont want me quoting the Bible ,which we see as the inspired word of God,then its only my opinion and I dont believe that is better than anyone elses.Now,you said you believe Jesus existed,so we agree on that and even other religiond,Hindu,seiks,muslims and so on,they believe He existed although only as a person or a prophet as I understand it.Now about why God allowed the world wars to take place,I think we have to group this in with,why does God allow any evil,for that matter.If He stopped the 2 world wars taking place,we could be here asking why he allowed any wars or murders to take place and so on,so rather than keep moving the goalposts,I think its better to ask why He allows any bad things to happen.Well,lets say He decided to do this from midnight tonight.Within a few seconds past midnight,He would be busy stopping all kinds of evil.It would be a full time job.The whole world would be transformed into something else completly different to what it is.We would no longer have freedom of choice.
We would all end up like robots.There are Bible verses that address this but you told me not to quote the
You can quote all you like…
It’s only quoting hearsay.
Ok, but my point was the ONLY way of proving that your god exists would be a ‘second coming’,.then and only then would I,. (and everybody else ) actually believe all this stuff.
Science can be proven,.aspects of religion can ABSOLUTELY NOT be proven.
Your version of ‘proof.’ is not actual fact, you can dress it up to.whatever you like,. but basically it is not fact, but just what you believe, based on what some normal human being, (not even some supernatural being) ,.has written down.
know why Jesus has waited so long to come back.Only God knows the day and hour of His return.but the way things are going,He will have to come back soon,or there wont be anything to come back to.I read in the news,if we dont stop global warming,the humans that are left are going to be literally boiled off the surface of the earth.There are enough people alive today that either dont believe global warming exists or they dont give a ■■■■ either way.that even if the rest of us try to reduce our carbon footprint,it wont be enough,I think
God has a master plan for everything and we just put our trust in Him,while at the same time,try and do what we can to make the world a better place if we have the power to do so.
As for proof,I dont think science is anywhere near explaining the beginning of life or the existence of the universe.I read that book,a brief history of time.There are so many necessary coincidences for matter to exist never mind,life to form and then rearrange itself to be ever more complex than the human brain.
Just one little thing,when you look at the sun and the moon,they both appear the same size even though the sun is a thousand times bigger but its just further away.Another coincidence.It doesnt happen on any of the other planets or moons in the galaxy
There is a verse in the book of revelation that I think gives hope to those people like yourself that will only believe when Jesus comes again,although I cant find the verse even though I just skimmed through the book looking for it.Its not the best way of getting to Heaven,I dont think.The time is short to seek Jesus as your saviour.
But lets pretend for a minute then that you DID experience proof.And what if only you had experienced this proof.Would this make you become a Christian?
Before you answer this,let me just run a few Bible verses past you…

Hmmmm…It would certainly be irrefutable proof that a god exists, but .whether I would become a Christian…
I ain’t insecure, and certainly not enough to feel a need to belong to any spiritual organisation, so no maybe not.
As for your last sentence…how can I put this.
Matthew 10:37
Anyne who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Matthew 10:22-24
And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. 23 When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes
Robroy.
Lets do a little thought experiment then.Lets pretend Jesus actually appeared to you tomorrow and then you seen Him with your own eyes but then He says,oh by the way ,the world will hate you for being one of my disciples.You get huge rewards in the next life but the rest of yout earthly life wont be so nice.You have the proof now so you can make an informed choice
Are you up for it?
Is it yay or ne?
So,still pretending ,Jesus has appeared to you in real life in a blaze of glory and youve seen Him with your own eyes.Lets imagine that nobody believes what you saw.He has told you that the only way for you to have eternal life is through Him.The alternative is eternal death.Would you want to follow Him and forsake everything for Him?
If you did,that would mean YOU would be known as a religous nutter.Would this be too big a price for you to pay?
Luke 9.26
If anyone is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and the holy angels.
Mathew 17
“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.
Look mate,.I can see you are in full flow and enjoying yourself here (maybe a little TOO much? ) , you need to get out of the manic religious trance,.and come back down to earth ffs… it ends here,
You can try until even YOU get bored, but you won’t draw me in to your conversion/brainwash routine process, by creating assortments of hypothetical theological scenarios for discussion,… presumably designed to catch me out, as the start of the path to me ‘‘seeing the light’’ …aye right.
'I’ve indulged you to a point., but I ain’t proceeding with a pointless conversation about some ridiculous situation of the appearance of a ‘god’ , it’s maybe worked for you in the past with others (bizarrely) ,.but with me it ain’t happening.
I’ve made my position clear…, as far as I am concerned ANY religion is primitive mumbo jumbo, and the concept of any type of ‘god’ is illogical and preposterous in modern times.
You need to go back to your ‘‘elders’’ and tell em you can not get through to that bloke off Trucknet, …
Hey!
I’ve had an idea for your next project, get them to set you the task of converting a homosexual to straight, ( that will be one less of them for your lot to exclude, persecute and hate ) in order for him to ‘enter the kingdom of Heaven’, it will be a far easier job than trying to convert ME. to ANY religion
I think someone was enjoying the blood of christ last night…
Isn’t it a lovely man, who expects you to love him more than your parents, or suffer the eternal fires ov hell…
To be honest Sploom, the bible verses you pick, dont show your boss in a good light.

A mistake? Being unable to discern “C” from “CH” ? I’m not really buying that at all, unless you want to freely admit that you have poorer language skills than the average 8 year old, in which someone else (your Elders?) must have to read your bible verses to you.
