And your god isn't strong enough to combat satan's influence? guess we should all be worshipping satan instead he certainly seems the better option

"God is not impressed by those who resort to using common sense. "
That explains gods followers.

Oh shut the fuck up and go read a book. I'm tired of these pseudo-religious morons who have to redefine the rules of logic and social interaction before they'll condescend to talking to us mere mortals. Big fucking babies that can't cope with being adults and playing by the same rules as everyone else.

God is not impressed by those who resort to using common sense.
And that just says it all, right there.

I suspect that Normal Norma doesn't realise that 'common' has a meaning above and beyond 'cheap, declassé, ugly, worthless etc'.
Hey, Norma, it is the same root as commune, community, and it means something shared, unity, available to all etc. Try looking up an on-line dictionary. You'll find it under Letter C (Remember Sesame Street?) But don't go into the Letter D, which is where Demons live! And Devil! Woooooo!
Try also to grow up.

You live in Satan's realm, you live by his rules.
The only way to leave Satan's realm is to die.

Umm, yeah... and people wonder why I left the faith...
\BTW, that kind of logic is what led to Jonestown, Waco, and a host of other atrocities, because "God told someone to tell you to... (fill in the blank)

Why should I be impressed by a god who doesn't understand common sense?

If that's where common sense comes from, I think I like this Satan guy. In the Bible, he never did any evil except for afflicting Job while acting on God's orders and he encouraged people to think for themselves. Oh sure, the Bible claims he's the evil one but it fails to provide anything to back that up. I think he was framed by the real villain.

Wellll - Pascal's Wagerians also say it's also "common sense" to believe in what the biggest religions on the planet teach, so...

I am impressed by how wonderful Satan's realm is.
The incredible natural beauty, the people I love, the conversations I've had with the smart people I've met, the books I've read - I could go on and on. Satan does a good job.
What has your god done lately, Norma? Punish people for enjoying Satan's realm?

If an all powerful God can't counteract Satan's influence, then he isn't all powerful, and therefore not a God. And please don't give me that "free will" speech, since using free will for anything other than choosing to kiss God's ass for all eternity will lead you straight to hell.

Well, it is true that common sense frequently turns out to be inadequate or even total bullshit, often because some chump's tried to apply it to an uncommon situation, or simply because it's never actually been tested by application at all. However, Norma, it seems you've quite forgotten that, contrary to your above assertion that it is not "of god", religions and the existence of gods have themselves been held to be common sense, by whole civilisations, for millennia - in fact, they practically epitomise it.

Seeing as how I'm not impressed by those who use the bible as the basis of their resoning and the fallback position in all their arguments, I can see where you're coming from.

So you're hoping that he's impressed by utter stupidity?

I hadn't realised that Christianity boiled down to an attempt to impress God. What is he impressed by then? Swanky new trainers? Nice, coloured robes?

Wow. You're crazy... and I mean in the clinically insane sort of way, not the Dawkins religious delusion sort of way. And your username just reinforces the perceived craziness.

Er, as I understand it, God made Fitzroy Road, and Primrose Hill, and Camden, and London, and England, and the UK, and Europe, and the Northern Hemisphere, and the World, and the Solar System, and the Galaxy, and the Universe . . . and . . . and . . . (that's just my own personal address).
What the hell did Satan ever make?
His realm, my arse.
What you are saying, Norma, is that God is incompetent. At least, that is my common-sensical take on it.
Your view is clearly that God is not impressive.
Hardly surprising, really, as there appears to be no such thing.
