Ray's latest crap, and my response.

The following is the text of Ray's latest post, "Why Doesn't God Say Something?". My response is in red.

"Why do you suppose God needs people to speak for him? Why can't your God speak for himself? Audibly? Where I and everybody else in the room can hear him?"

He did speak audibly to Israel when He gave the Ten Commandments, and the Bible says that Israel was so fearful they pleaded that He no longer speak to them. He did speak on the Mount of Transfiguration and terrified the disciples. When He spoke audibly to Jesus, the people thought that they heard thunder.

Sounds like God has a well-established history of speaking. Tell us again why He no longer does so, especially since He continued after Israel pleaded that He discontinue the practice.

So why didn't God just whisper on these occasions? Perhaps He did.

Yes, because God has so much difficulty modulating His voice. An omnipotent Supreme Being, and He can't speak in an indoor voice. And He's no good with money, either. He's always asking for more money.

However, God (in His infinite wisdom) has chosen what the Bible calls "the foolishness of preaching" to speak to humanity. He has condescended to use man to deliver the message of everlasting life to man.

Wow...sounds exactly what a con man would say to convince the marks to fork over their cash. "I speak for the Lord God, because if He spoke directly to you, His awesome voice would overwhelm you! Me, I'm immune for some reason...but you....man, trust me, you don't wanna hear His voice! It's super loud! Now, the Lord God has instructed me to tell you that He needs your money...He's got plenty of everlasting life, but is short on cash, and is looking to make a deal..."

There you have it--the offer of everlasting life. Take it or leave it.

I'll pass, thanks.

The Idiopedia

Welcome to the wonderful perpendicular universe of Conservapedia, where Charles Darwin was a racist, where the theory of evolution caused the holocaust, where Barack Obama is a terrorist muslim and where Ray Comfort doesn't exist except as a footnote to everyones favorite firefighter.

Perhaps we should help him out by writing a polite, eloquent, completely unbiased article?

PS: I recommend that anyone preparing to read anything on that site surgically remove their brain and store it in a jar for the duration. If you do not, you may suffer side-effects, including nausea, vomiting, brain atrophy and death. I think the latter may be premeditative.
PPS: To get the truth, and not the pathetically unfunny, liberally biased misinformation the Con-opedia peddles, visit the real "trustworthy encyclopedia".
PPPS: Thanks to Kaitlyn for finding this little gem, on Reality.
PPPPPS: I fully encourage any games of Conservatroll. If you read that article, remember to check out the Finland article on conservapedia. Yes, it's still there.
