Except they weren't miracles, at the time they seemed like it because they are unexplainable events genius. Guess what explained them? Yep science.
I never said it's science versus religion, it's just explaining away the places religion is hiding, it's getting smaller and smaller, just like congregations.
We agree on something, religion is a system to dictate how to live your life. It's a set of rules essentially. Science is literally the search for truth. And the dogma that you chose, and there are many of them, are based on concepts which are not the truth. Why can't you grasp this concept? I don't understand.
Alright then, let's try something. Jesus' very first miracle. John 2:1-12. He turns water into wine. You obviously know the story so explain to me how it happened?
That's the thing though, I questioned the words and did my investigations. Is it really true that when I am weak then I am strong? I'm not going to believe a claim like that willy nilly. As I dug deeper and asked multiple people they all gave me the same answer. I even applied my own experience where that was the case and I saw it in others and in the end it turns out to be true. When I am weak then I am strong. All you need to do is dig deeper and investigate. Every week I am still studying the Bible with a group of people who are either studying at University or have graduated and are now working full time. So when you say the dogma that I chose is based on concepts which are not the truth, here I am thinking that I've done my investigations and trust me I've done a lot. I didn't accept something to be true at first until I went and received clarification. You are going to have to try a lot harder than that. Do you want to start on the Genealogy of Jesus and how it proves that he is the Messiah?

Because like all religious ppl, their belief system is so powerfully blinding, that even if they are disproved beyond a shadow of a doubt, they still belief what they believe. Maddening but also kind of interesting how dumb and naive ppl can actually be...
The blind people are telling those that can see that they are blind. What did you disprove beyond a shadow of a doubt? I must know which part of the Bible you have taken out of context which is preventing you from being able to see.

Covid really highlighted how dumb our species is.
Yeah, we religious people have complied with the Government regulations to stay in lockdown. But dumb and inconsiderate people from other states are self centered and try to sneak into the borders and carry Covid with them. Good thing the Police are there to give them hefty fines.
