I thought about saying “you know it’s a grift when they collect personal information and leak it.” According to their Bible, you don’t need an app to pray. They say church (or a covenant, I forget, it’s been 30+ years since I read the KJV) is when any two people come together to talk about Jesus (sorry!). So, where does an app fit in? And why does that app need your personally identifiable information (referred to as PII in industry). Wouldn’t an all-knowing God already have it?

But you don’t have to know it’s a grift… I feel like this is proof the Vatican (or whoever made this app on their behalf, and thus speak on their behalf… and the Pope allegedly speaks on God’s behalf) themselves know it’s a grift. Because why would they need your PII?

I know, fools and their money are soon parted… just saw this on /all and figured the Fediverse’s top Atheism comm should have it.

      We do

      Stop telling deadly lies. There is absolutely no evidence for god. You have not provided any, you only have fallacies.

      Here is the definition.

      “The essence of a being considered as the principle of activity.” So you and I have different natures.

      “Also the substance of a thing as distinguished from its properties, considered as the source of its operations.” This is nonsense. Do you have an example?

      “In contrast with God, it is the created universe. In contrast to the life and operations of divine grace, it is that to which a human person has claim, as creature, as distinct from a share in God’s own life, which is the supernatural.”

      This makes no sense. Nothing is supernatural. How do you determine what the opposite of a nature is? What is the opposite of human nature, if we pretend that exists for a moment?

      It was written by humans, inspired by God.

      If you are pretending the bible was written by god, then why does it contain mistakes?

      If you are admitting that it was written by humans, why should we believe any of it?

      Show me the evidence.

      Humans wrote the bible. You even admitted that. But then you added the completey unproven and ridiculous claim that it was inspired by god.

      It contains blatant contradictions with itself and our reality. Example: what year was Jesus born?

      Do rabbits chew cud?

      Do you actually believe the world was made in 6-7 days? If so, in what order? Genesis 2 contradicts Genesis 1. Why did god write such an unbelievable book if we’re supposed to believe it? He’s not all powerful, clearly. Your bullshit about “humans can’t understand omnipotence”… Humans can understand language. Humans can understand what we can sense. So why is god unable to communicate with no errors?

      Do you believe that I am going to hell for being honest, for having intellectual integrity? Your god is an abuser.

      You are defending a death cult.

      People are dying for you.

      Please. Think.

      Stop making bullshit excuses and start relying on the reality we share. Anything less makes you a murderer.

        He was 33 when he died and rose again, so 0 AD

        No one goes to hell for being honest

        Can I havr the contradictions in Genesis?

        And a day for God isnt a day for us. God is above time itself.
