If God is out there why is he knocking off the people who spread his word? What says you anons? Does he exist?
probably had some Freemason ritual the night before

He exists just like Zeus, Mohammad, Hera, Eros, etc. I find it kind of odd how as we age we grow out of the fantasies of the easter bunny, or Santa, etc... but the big eye in the sky continues to be believed for some reason.
Ian Wood
God hates niggers.

>enter body of water known to house one of mankind's only natural predators >be surprised when your religious sermon is interrupted by said predators coming for an easy meal It's his own damned fault for not taking precautions. Even something as simple as having a net or barrier set up around the baptism spot would've been enough to prevent this.
It is correct that I exist and that I hate preachers, ate two of them yesterday.
Isaiah James
God won't come down and protect you from crocodiles after you enter a body of water that is known to have them.
Thomas Anderson
Because it just makes sense for some sort of supernatural creator to exist, and attaching an entire philosophical doctrine to this fact and worshiping said creator as a means to adhere to said doctrine also makes sense.
Adrian Thomas
Nothing to do with that, it's everything to do with his dumbass being near a lake full of fucking crocodiles. Africa.
Sebastian Foster
why you assume He hates anybody? why noone asks if God decided to whisper into Croc ear: >hey scally child, go eat that dude, he is sick and old and it is your birthday today

>why is he knocking off the people Heaven can't afford to pay for any more minority programs. They simply drag down every economy that let's them in willy nilly.
Without him the lord the pastor would miss more than just his arm...
Also
>an area known to have a huge crocodile population.
When you're such an idiot to hold cermonys there then its not God's fault for your dumbness.The idiot pastor learned bet?
Joshua Mitchell
Why is God responsible for a crocodile trying to find some food? croc's got to eat too Probably not the best idea to to enter a body of water know for being inhabited by giant predators. Religious or not.
Levi Wright
He hates preachers that don’t have enough faith. Anyone that doesn’t have enough faith is on the chopping block and can go at any time. Let that be a warning to you, ye of little faith. Never let a moment of doubt enter your mind.
Why is it always a meme flag who make this kind of threads? Nipmoot should finally remove the meme flags,they don't bring anything positive or political into this board.
Typical boomers Study the connection behind the (((denominations))) and you'll get the picture

God answered the prayers of a starving recently-widowed crocodile looking to take care of her hungry crocodile babies

baptism is a distortion of abrahamic practices. anointing with olive oil on the forehead is whats done . using water is only for checking to see if some one has "leprosy" which the jews call a freckle leprosy as well. they would be submerged and if the blemish was not gone when they come out they would be exiled. so if you got a birth mark your to be banished and have to go live innawoods when some one does a baptism otherwise they are a heretic and deserve to be eaten by a alligator
Jacob Anderson
they're bots trying to slide the child abduction threads. I still chuckle at the thought that someone could be retarded enough to spend money hiring bots to "stifle discussion" here. kek. fucking jews.

He's dead dummy.
Andrew King
>Why is God responsible for a crocodile trying to find some food?
Because he made them, because he's responsible for everything and should be held accountable.

Thomas Bell
If God exists why do you think he hasn't abandoned humanity and went working on bigger and better projects?
Liam Diaz
Why are you blaming God for a pastors decision to baptize people In a known dangerous lake?
Isaiah Mitchell
Because God isn't the anthropomorphic, personified 3 dimensional sky person people view him as.
Oliver Cruz
yes i do believe in god. Furthermore i don't think anyone has a monopoly on the word. The priest most likley had no idea what was in the water and ignorantly chose to lead people to danger. Thats all.
>What says you anons? looks like he tested his faith.
Dylan Jones
if an omniscient god exists, why do people need to pray? shouldn't god already know what you want without asking since he's all-knowing?
god is all powerful and benevolent, and yet he can't stop evil. this implies that the evil force is more powerful than god. god is all knowing and yet he doesn't know what people want because people need to pray(for him to know what they want)
jesus died for our sins and yet people still have original sin and can still sin(which makes no sense).
God is my favorite subject on Jow Forums, because this entire board is populated by people who are too smart and too cynical to believe in God, but feel obligated to simply to avoid association with liberals and fedora tippers, and to adhere to some vaguely defined conservative identity. The mental gymnastics that happens in these threads could win Olympic medals.
