It seems kind of clear He wouldn't exactly be a fan of nuclear weapons.

But He must have been in favor of a world wide flood that destroyed all but 8 humans, right?

You would compare man's revengeful vengeance with God's righteous vengeance? Really?

All-knowing one. How do you know God doesn't have a righteous purpose for nuclear weapons? 😏

I cannot believe that you think nuclear weapons have ANY "righteous purpose".

to be fair to r.j. you once told me we would all be hacking at each other in a knee deep bloodbath during armegeddon, a few nuclear strikes seem slightly more humane than a 'gangs of new york' rusty nail in the end of a plank of wood type scrap. so maybe there is a place for nukes in gods arsenal.

but it won't be in God's arsenal.

The AntiChrist's arsenal, sure, I can see that, but not God's arsenal. I'm also guessing the Heavenly Host will be able to keep those nukes from triggering, as well.

(Again, "What does God need with a Starship?" comes to mind.)

Guns, bombs and ufo's.
Does God or Jesus have any of those?
When he arrives on judgement day,
will he arrive on Santa's sleigh?

Will Satan be killed by a load of nukes
as he rallies together his army of crooks?
Will Suzianne come to save you,
in her cloak of red and spandex blue?

What about R J Hinds
as the devil's plan falls and unwinds?
When Christ appears with sword and crown,
will then all those Muslims stare and fall down?

They say we are in the end times now,
but no one really knows when or how.
Will it be fire or will it be flood?
Can we survive no bad only good?

And what will some say when he does inform
that to his name of old you should conform.
He'll look at the watchtower and say, "I told ya.
I AM who I AM, the name's not Jehovah."

Wind and lightning, fire and rain
are all he needs to wipe away the stain.
He needs no nukes or NRA,
to help him come and save the day.

But if He tarries for too many days,
What are we to use to prolong our days?

Have you never heard of the beatitudes and the commandments?
Blessed are the meek they shall inherit the earth, blessed are the merciful
for they shall obtain mercy, blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be
called the children of God.

Do good to those who hate you, turn the other cheek, love God and
love your neighbour as yourself, put up your sword for those who
live by the sword shall perish by the sword.

All the above quotes from Jesus, the man at the centre of your holy book.

Peace R J, Peace harmony and collective peaceful cooperation.

He didn't tell you to make nukes or join the NRA.

Well, we have to figure some things out for ourselves. That is why he gave us a mind, numbnuts.

Oh, you mean the mind you refuse to actually use when it comes to Young Earth nonsense or creationism, just taking other people's word for it.

I believe you are taking peoples word for many things too. You believe apes became humans without seeing it happen or a dinosaur turned into a bird without seeing it happen. You are taking peoples word that some fish became land animals and turned into cattle or horses or foxes or lions, etc. You have never seen any of it happen, yet you believe it, because others say that is what happens even though they have never seen it happen either.

You also take peoples word for how old things are. They tell you a rock or a bone is a billion years old and you believe them. You seem to be the gullible one to me.

You are the one, a very small minority also, of people who insist the Earth is 10K years old or whatever without even thinking it through other than GODDIDIT and that is that. You can't answer my point about the craters on the moon because that would throw your cognitive dissonance in your face and you can't have that. So you just say everyone else on the planet is crazy but RJHINDS.

Terrible dodge that.

Your God commands you to be meek, merciful and a peacemaker.

You are arrogant, lacking mercy, and a warmonger.

You're not doing very well with that mind of yours, are you?

Maybe some outside assistance would help? I think it helped you before in other areas.
