I see you’ve been busy Googling. Here’s something else for you to Google:

Where does man’s conscience come from? Why or how does man have an innate sense of right and wrong?

So you feel an atheist is only accountable to himself? What if an atheist sees nothing wrong with rape and murder? Is such a person accountable to no one if he never gets caught?

Stumped you that easily?

Wake up and smell the coffee, Heartpence. You’re posting in a fog today, with your Google quotes and illogical points.

Best stick to trolling today or the banana peels will be flying.

In all it's glory:

Sweden is 80% atheist. Imagine an entire country without morals! Oh, wait, they have one of the lowest crime rates in the world. Huh, guess religion isn't that important after all and that man is only really accountable to his conscience.

You misunderstand why people believe in God and why people seek to please a God.

As I said earlier, it’s like you’re wandering around lost in a forest but insisting you know where you are.

Sad!

You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep-seated need to believe.

Not after the mozlem horde is done with that country.

Carl Sagan may have been a brilliant cosmologist but he was an absolute boob when it came to God and Christianity. Sagan once claimed the tree in the Garden of Eden was the “tree of knowledge” and that God forbid Adam and Eve from eating from it because he wanted them to be ignorant.

Such an elementary and embarrassing error highlights the danger of thinking because you’re an authority in one field, you’re an authority in all fields.

I see you’re back to posting Google quotes. That’s pretty safe. Just stay away from theological debates - I don’t know how many more pratfalls your hips can take.

And you (of course) run the risk when venturing into theological issues of a major catastrophe such as LittlePup encountered less than 24 hours ago.

"The Upper Room® is a global ministry dedicated to supporting the spiritual life of Christians seeking to know and experience God more fully.

The Upper Room is a great group. The United Methodist Church has always been allied with the Episcopal Church in America (both being Wesleyan churches, as opposed to Calvinist).

What I don't know is why you bolded 'Church' in your last line. Is that your beef with them? That a Christian group is allied with a church? Shocking!
