Am unsure what degree of gullibility or pretense is required to claim that the words "god", "creation" and "infallible" are congruent. This is worth listening to:

Homo Sapiens is ONE kingdom above the animals kingdom. I believe we are much higher than the animals.... Yes, there are gay animals, we are one kingdom higher than them. God created the homo sapiens one kingdom above the animals. Humans are animals, and part of the animal kingdom. "While the genetic difference between individual humans today is minuscule – about 0.1%, on average – study of the same aspects of the chimpanzee genome indicates a difference of about 1.2%. The bonobo (Pan paniscus), which is the close cousin of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), differs from humans to the same degree. The DNA difference with gorillas, another of the African apes, is about 1.6%. Most importantly, chimpanzees, bonobos, and humans all show this same amount of difference from gorillas. A difference of 3.1% distinguishes us and the African apes from the Asian great ape, the orangutan. How do the monkeys stack up? All of the great apes and humans differ from rhesus monkeys, for example, by about 7% in their DNA."humanorigins.si.edu/evidence/geneticscdnapi.kaltura.com/index.php/extwidget/openGraph/wid/1_t1aehrpv

Just to add that a second talk by Christopher Hitchens automatically loads at the end of the above one and it is also recommended. Despite that he was dying of cancer during the time of the 2nd video, he continued to debate, and write articles and books.

NathanB your comments just prompted this consideration: given that you claim the creator is exempt from responsibilities for human mutations; in the event of your car developing a dangerous fault, as the driver you would then have to accept responsibility for this. Whereas I would contact the manufacturer and request either a repair or a replacement. The claims made by believers present as disingenuous. To present the case for a benevolent, omniscient and omnipresent creator requires non-stop mental contortions and squirmishes,; facing repetitive dead-ends, then re-routes only to meet another failed attempt to provide a rational argument. When there is no evidence, there remains only guess work and it is obvious.

Here are just a few interesting statistics on animals - Also created by God: Giraffes Gay sex accounts for 94% of all observed sexual activity in giraffes. Male giraffes have a unique way of flirting (and to occasionally show dominance) that is seen nowhere else on Earth. It is ‘necking’. Two males stand side by side, and gently rub their necks on each other’s body, head, neck, loins and thighs. In some sessions this goes on for as long as hour. This leads to sexual arousal. And while necking can sometimes lead to orgasm in of itself, sometimes they mount each other to finish each other off. But this isn’t what a couple of guy giraffes do when the girls aren’t around. With both male and female giraffes present, males like to start necking with other males and often disregard any females present. 2. Bonobo Female bonobos have sex in a way that in many aspects is unique to the species: These chimpanzees rub their genitals together. This is known as GG-rubbing (for genito-genital rubbing). Some scientists believe the particular shape and location of the bonobo’s genitals have evolved specifically for lesbian rather than straight sex. 3. Flamingos Flamingos have monogamous partners, and these can include two males, two females or a male and a female. In one such example at Edinburgh zoo, a pair of male flamingos adopted a fluffy grey newborn chick after it was knocked out of the nest by its parents. 4. Dolphins Three quarters of all bottlenose dolphins are in same-sex pair-bonds, and many of them mate for life. On the death of a partner, some biologists have witnessed a long ‘mourning’ period. If they do decide to search for a new male companion, this will normally be unsuccessful, as most males will already be paired. But, if he can find another ‘widower’, the two may couple up. Some female Spinner dolphins also sometimes ‘ride’ on each other’s dorsal fin. Incidentally, an ‘orgy’ of same-sex behavior in a dolphin is known as a ‘wuzzle’. How horrendously cute. There are many more..just posted a couple examples 'So God did send his wrath upon the earth in a great flood, to destroy all these creatures for their vile acts against nature. The giraffes, the bonobos, the goats, the flamingos, and the penguins did all perish, save for the male and female in the ark. But lo the dolphins would not drown, and mocked the Lord's judgement upon them with great flips in the air, and clicky noises, and bow-riding of the ark. And so the Lord said "Let Us create Japan, that they might hunt the dolphins with spear, and hook and net and turn them into sushi, from now until the end of the world." And verily the smaller land did cleave from the greater land and fall into the sea. And it was so.'

depends if you think anal/oral sex to be homosexual in nature or not... So if a person considers anal/oral sex to be homosexual in nature, then would heterosexuals who perform anal/oral sex be homosexuals? This is all so absurd. I think that's what rational is trying to say not me...

If a heterosexual couple engages in anal and/or oral sex, are they considered to have committed a homosexual act? Is it the sex act that is a sin or who's doing the sex act? depends if you think anal/oral sex to be homosexual in nature or not... This makes no logical sense. Acts are not heterosexual or homosexual.

nathan, are you saying that Down Syndrome is a mankind creation, caused from cigarettes, pollution, nuclear radiation fall out ? Many human sickness, disease, virus, cancer, autism, etc.. are created by mankind NOT God. For one example... Agent Orange!Symptoms of Agent Orange in Vietnam Veterans Last Updated: Aug 16, 2013 | By Julie Boehlke Symptoms of Agent Orange in Vietnam Veterans Agent Orange is a type of herbicide. It was used throughout Vietnam during the Vietnam War between 1962 and 1971. The herbicide was used to kill vegetation that the enemy forces used for cover. After many military service people returned from war, they began to experience an array of health problems. These problems are believed to be derived from exposure to the Agent Orange herbicide. Neurological Troublesome symptoms that many Vietnam veterans began to go through were neurological problems. These symptoms generally started off with blurry or burning vision with episodes of violence, anger, depression, frenzy, memory loss and lack of concentration. Intestinal Distress, Birth Defects, Skin Many veterans exposed to Agent Orange noticed vast changes in their skin. Symptoms included rashes, acne, hair loss, brittle nails or nails that fell off, changes in skin color and increased sensitivity to heat and direct sunlight. Veterans may have experienced all or only one of the symptoms. Cancer One of the most troubling side effects to Agent Orange exposure is developing different types of cancer. Months and sometimes years after exposure, Vietnam veterans experienced symptoms at the onset or in some cases the advanced stages of their disease. Weight loss, chills, fever, skin growths and tumors and extreme fatigue were some of the symptoms. Liver, lung, ear duct and testicular cancer were some of the cancers that were believed to have arisen from Agent Orange. www.livestrong.com/article/23779-symptoms-agent-orange-vietnam-veterans/Agent Orange is not Down Syndrome nathan !

Is it possible to just think outside the 'rectangle' (black with typically gold writing) for even a minute? the reciting of scriptural mantras is just white noise and does not rebut the claim that a belief in an infallible creator is not evidenced.

Well it seems that God created homosexual animals nathan. You said "why would God create gay people", well why would God create children with Downs Syndrome ? What the purpose ? If God hates homosexual acts so much why create homosexual animals ? Are you saying God created Gay people in the Old Testament, having sexual desires, acts with the same sex, so the children of Israel could stone them to death?Entertainment of the day. It seems that people who believe god is the creator and ruler of the universe only hold that belief for the things they consider "good". If it is bad it is Satan or the evil will of mankind. An earthquake that results in the deaths of 200,000 is never credited as god killing innocent people but should one child be found and saved in the rubble all credit goes to god. You need to throw Satan/evil beings into the mix or you end up with an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent being that would have to have created child molesters for the sole purpose of hurting children.

Let me ask you this, why would God create gay people? What's the purpose? for many centuries they lived in fear for their lives if they ever found out of their sexual acts behavior. God hates the homosexual sexual acts of behavior, so why would He create them? Well it seems that God created homosexual animals nathan. You said "why would God create gay people", well why would God create children with Downs Syndrome ? What the purpose ? If God hates homosexual acts so much why create homosexual animals ?

It is reasonable to direct that question "Why did God create children with down syndrome" to all who believe in an all-powerful and benevolent creator Roselyn T. Believers who sanctify human life present a meme which shows a gorgeous little child with downs syndrome and the words "God doesn't make mistakes". This is a shocking rejection and dismissal of the all-encompassing effects of this serious, life-limiting syndrome. Those with DS have a markedly increased incidence of serious cardiac and hematological conditions. The intellectual disability varies however people with this condition are generally passive and gentle, and even if they are able to speak up, are easily manipulated and silenced. It takes little research into the disability field to learn the rates of abuse and neglect are extremely concerning. The donning of blindfolds, either to protect the claim that god is not responsible for suffering, or to deny the issues inherent to the many conditions which negatively impact quality of life, is obscene and perpetuates infinite angst on the vulnerable.

What Causes Autism? Do Vaccines Cause Autism?Two theories link autism and vaccines. The first theory suggests that the MMR (Mumps-Measles-Rubella) vaccine may cause intestinal problems leading to the development of autism. The second theory suggests that a mercury-based preservative called thimerosal, used in some vaccines, could be connected to autism. The medical community has soundly refuted these theories, but a very passionate group of parents and researchers continue to disagree, based on anecdotal evidence. For More on Vaccines and Autism: •Do Vaccines Cause Autism? •Should Parents Skip Vaccines to Avoid Autism? Here are the rest of the reasons for Autism... autism.about.com/od/whatisautism/p/autismcauses.htm This suggests otherwise.Theories based on facts rather than fears.

openingact34 that is clever satire & it evokes the horrible images of the dolphin hunts in Taiji Cove. But surely a creature as intelligent as a dolphin would understand how unnatural and sinful its actions are? I'm planning on visiting an aquarium later this week. Am still debating on whether to bring along some brightly colored signs to minister to these lost mammals: "Repent Finned Homos" "Thank God for Great White Sharks" I also have to wonder: What kind of Christian takes their children to zoos and aquariums with bisexual animal species anyway?

I can't believe people are comparing human beings to animals. God put man over all animals. We have a higher understanding! Although some people act like one! God wants us to put away that fleshly nature.
God wants that beastly nature gone, not to act like an animal. We are to serve the creator, not serve the creature.
Romans 1
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
When we serve our own bodies instead of God when we live by the flesh. We serving that creature fleshly side of ourselves.
A woman and a man produce a living child. And God told us to go forth and multiply. This is also like God and his people. Once we have the husbandman which is the spirit of God in the heart. We then produce the living child. Which is Christ in the heart living through us, making us alive in God. Then we are to multiply. Just like naturally. Everything natural in the bible has a spiritual meaning. But whilst you're still living on the level of the animal, you'll never have the ears to hear. That side has to go, before we will know God!

I have no problem with you either -- though I understand you say I don't know God and my jokes are disgusting. No, you didn't call me a liar. You just kept quoting your favorite verse, which had nothing to do with what I was saying. I assumed, and I believe correctly so, that you were suggesting I didn't know what I was talking about. See -- you agree with me now. But now you have to explain why all those righteous people had more than one wife. Either Jesus meant "each wife individually", or the Hebrews always had it all wrong. I didn't make this up. I'm okay with the discrepancy, but you seem to think it's not a discrepancy. Of course not "wives". There was never a commandment to have multiple wives. There wasn't even a commandment to have one wife. A man is free to have no wife if he wants. You're reading modern Christian doctrine into Hebrew culture. Okay, you contradicted my "fact" -- but now you agree I was telling the truth. In fact: plural marriage was NEVER extinguished from Christianity -- just in the denominations descended from the Roman church. There are Christians in countries where the Roman Empire never held control that have Christian men with more than one wife. I also know of a 2x2 man who had two wives -- both serving dinner to the visiting workers. But, as i said, I was referring to what Jesus said, not the old testament. Anyway, I was looking earlier online at what the Jewish people believe. And they say that a rabbi 1000 years ago changed marriage to one man and one woman. The way that God originally intended. What I have read is that, Moses allowed multiple wives because they already had multiple wives. But that wasn't Gods way in the beginning. In fact they sounded like Jesus and said that God created one man and one woman They also say that Abraham had more than one wife because he was tricked by laban, and that he would have only had Rachel. And that Isaac had one wife only, and that the old testament way was mostly one wife. Also, yes, I do believe that some of you're jokes are disgusting. I don't believe it's right to joke about the crucifixion of Jesus. He was brutally murdered. And I don't see any fun in joking about torture. I feel that you don't know God, because if you did, you wouldn't put jokes like that on the internet. You would have a fear of doing that. And you would respect him and you wouldn't do jokes about Jesus or God in the way that you do. And I saw one which involved a priest and an alter boy and it was vile. I don't look at the humour thread anymore because it makes me feel sick in the stomach at times. But, that is my choice. And, I suppose if you don't believe in God, then you won't understand how I feel. You and Nathan could collaborate on your research.

Yes, at times polygamy has been allowed in Jewish history. But, from what I've read. That's not the way Jewish people believe it should be. www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/12260-polygamy

Why did God create children with down syndrome nathan ? I didn't say God create children with down syndrome.. you did. Let me know when you find out who caused/created down syndrome.
What causes Down syndrome? Down syndrome is caused because of an abnormality characterized by an extra copy of genetic material on all or part of the 21st chromosome.
So if God created children with DS, why do you say he didn't create gay people ?

What I mean by that, is if Bob knew God, he wouldn't post jokes making fun of him or Jesus. Because he would have reverence for him. There is judgement of the flesh, and then there is spiritual discernment. And those who are spiritually discerned will know that a person who pokes fun at God, doesn't know him! Because if he did, he would fear doing things like that! Gods people don't joke about him or make fun of him. They worship him!

maryhig we humans are animals. The human ego motivated the ancients to believe the human species was different to other animals and that we were created in the image of a god(s), when it is the gods who have been anthropomorphisized. Our species is closely related to the great apes. I wonder if you accept evolutionary science as factual? (you do not have to answer this) I found this interestingResearchers have also identified downs syndrome in chimpanzees

If a heterosexual couple engages in anal and/or oral sex, are they considered to have committed a homosexual act? Is it the sex act that is a sin or who's doing the sex act? Lee's requirement is that they should be making a baby -- or else. Of course, he hasn't reached menopause yet.
