"Jesus loves me. This I know for the Bible tells me so." That's true ... FOR CHILDREN! And doesn't the Bible also tell us that "when we become adults, it's time to put childish things away?
Grown Ups realize that the Bible...

You know how sometimes children will witness another child doing something wrong or hear a secret then run off to tell their mum or dad?
Well I wonder if that's what people do when they pray to God. They tattletale on their...

And that famous Scripture-passage--John 3:16--doesn't seem to say 'God so loved the ones who believe God exists' or 'God so loved the ones who pray to God "in God's Son's Name",' but "God so loved the world (the Greek...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 I'll go to a book-store, and tell them to give me a Bible free-of-charge (if it's straight from God, it belongs to me; right?) ... and they won't do it, because it's NOT straight-from-God. People are inspired by God (as I am regularly), but 'the work...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 That; or preachers (since long-long ago) have been 'putting words in his mouth' to convince you that the stories they tell you come "from God" (like when I was young and I'd tell my younger brother & sister that 'our parents said to ... I dunno,...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 And--like Obi-Wan left when it was time for Luke Skywalker to use his power independently--Jesus leaves us time to "put away childish things" (1 Corinthians 13:11)
I think of https://amzn.to/2MhjmBM David C. Pack's conclusion that Jesus...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 psh ... just like 'the Sun orbited the Earth for centuries, until ...' ... how did we ever come to the conclusion that 'the Earth actually orbits the Sun'? Was it just 'Occam's Razor' (the simplest conclusion is probably the right one ... it's...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 And (with your brain tricking you into thinking you're hearing your crying dead fetus) they've trapped you. You could 'get out of the trap,' but I don't think you want to. You're happily 'trapped' (I remember verses about 'slavery under God being...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 Yeah, where does God say that?
I can only think of two things 'God' ever said (other than the 'hearsay' we hear from "prophets"): "I am as I am" (which might also be 'hearsay,' but that phrase is the basis of "his Name") and "This is my...

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @dlr297 I disagree. You can 'believe' all you want, and you're still in as much danger as you were before unless you 'step off of the boat.' (Reference to Saint Peter when he walked to Jesus on the water ... he could've just 'believed' and trusted that...

I’ve heard it so many times that all a person has to do to go to Heaven is to believe in God or follow some religion’s beliefs. Does mere Belief make something true?
OK, say all the believers make it to Heaven. How long would it...
