2 Kings 2:23-24 (New International Version)
Elisha Is Jeered
23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some youths came out of the town and jeered at him. "Go on up, you baldhead!" they said. "Go on up, you baldhead!" 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.
In the name of the Lord, 42 children were murdered......FORTY-TWO!!!!...if I was to even kill THREE children I would probably get the electric chair...but God allowed the killing of FORTY-TWO.....people argue that we can't understand God's logic, but I think that's bull......that is just one of the many merciless stories in the Bible that makes me SMH...
Also as far as dinosaurs go....HOW CAN YOU NOT BELIEVE IN THEM???? I've heard a lot of people try to say that God placed them here to test our fate, but come on......REALLY??? I'm not saying your wrong, but that would make God a trickster IMO.....somebody who tricks others into believing things based off of visual evidence and then damns them to Hell for it.....I believe that God judges man by his morals, work ethic, and choices in life....I don't think that he's as apart of our everyday lives as we would like to think....I'm spiritual but definitely not religious....
Believers or not, people have no right to judge the fate of others and it's become apparent that a lot of religious people just write off people and say the most hurtful thing: "you're going to hell".....REALLY??? have you even thought about Hell??? think about the worst pain imaginable and then multiply it by 10 and then think about experiencing it for an eternity......AN ETERNITY.....that's FOREVER!!!!!....Nobody deserves such a horrible and and unforgiving punishment and the bible tells us that only the saved people will escape that fate....
do you know how many people are Christians in the world??? 37%....all of these people will not make it because the bible tells us that there are fakers among them....so let's say about 20%......that means that 1 in 5 people will escape hell that means that out of the 6 Billion people in the world today.......that means that only 1.2 billion will make it to heaven(if even that) and that 4.8 Billion will suffer in Hell for an eternity...now think of all the people who have ever lived and do some math.....how can you guys not feel bad or at least that this action is not "loving"....
God made us all different and gave us Free Will.....he couldn't expect us to all have the same belief system, because then we would all be similar and not the unique individuals that we are....so I don't think that he would expect us to have the one belief but I don think that he would expect us to all have good morals and character and that's how I choose to live my life...thanx for reading,lol
