There is very little humor coming from that region these days, I believe it was actually outlawed.Mountain Man wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 8:27 amDude, it was just a joke. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯curt wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 4:29 amThere are two reasons to laugh. First of all it is a pretty funny story for what it is. Second, it is so completely question begging that anyone who takes it for more than a joke is mainly making a fool of him or herself.Mountain Man wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 5:53 pmA joke my uncle once told me:
Some scientists were feeling pretty proud of themselves, so they challenged God to a contest where each would make a human being from dust, and then they would put them through a series of trials to see which was the best creation. God readily agreed, so the scientists set out with shovels and buckets, and God asked them what they thought they were doing. "We're going to get some dust," they said. "That's my dust," God replied. "Go make your own."
This sort of over analysis reminds me of the Calvin and Hobbs comic...
"A man tells his dog, 'Heel!' The dog says, 'It takes one to know one.' Ha ha ha! Wait, why aren't you laughing? Don't you know a good joke when you hear it?"
"I'm trying to figure out how the dog learned to talk."

Re: Need Resources !!!
Oh I understand, people who are very dumb, especially atheists who think they're smart, probably would question it to showcase their theory.

Re: Need Resources !!!
I know an extremely intelligent Atheist who didn't understand humor they would try to read too much into jokes and try to turn the joke around and other awkward things. They were later diagnosed with Asperger's so I don't think it is exclusive to Atheism in general because I know Atheists that have a great sense of humor, they probably are not posting on this Christian message board. Humor is subjective to culture, some cultures laughing or making fun of someone or something is a lawless act. It's going to be an interesting decade to come, social media and video platforms are trying to crack down on humor, I understand stopping targeted harassment to a degree, but things are going full 1984. This site will be a gem in these times.

Re: Need Resources !!!
One of the counselors at my camp made a joke that probably wasn't very nice, and not how God works but I must admit I still think of it and laugh from time to time.
When God made the first black person: "Whoops burnt that one!"
And a friend of mine told me some jokes (I only remember one) that I couldn't help laughing at partly because I laugh at almost everything.
Q. Why do black people have white palms and soles?
A. Because they were on all fours when God painted them.
I suppose they are very offensive to some. I told another friend of mine the jokes and she didn't laugh-- at all.

Re: Need Resources !!!
Uh, yeah, those jokes are pretty darn offensive, and not in a "they're politically incorrect" sort of way but because they're blatantly racist.

Re: Need Resources !!!
I could see why the second one would be considered offensive, true. The first I've heard before and is somewhat funny, albeit not politically correct. Also it depends on why, how and to whom you make these jokes.Diehardpetrafan:) wrote: ↑Thu Dec 12, 2019 11:49 amOne of the counselors at my camp made a joke that probably wasn't very nice, and not how God works but I must admit I still think of it and laugh from time to time.

Btw Diehard, I found the forum you said this debate was taking place, and it was rather interesting
Two or three of them were not at all actually interested in debating, they preferred trying to mock you and insult your beliefs, after asking you to "prove it" to you. Furthermore, they apparently thought they should try to upset a 13 year old by talking about sexual things on a forum? These people lacked maturity and decency. I'd try to avoid them if I were you, either way, try not to get to worked up because they were just making themselves look silly, the more you just let them talk the worse they make themselves look.
Obviously there are atheists who are genuinely nice, and intelligent people, but these were not some of them.

Oh- you did- I suppose it's not hard to find Btw, that's what I told Geoff- he's immature and not nice- if you didn't discover that too already
Yikes, for some reason I'm a little embarrassed. What topic were you on anyway?

The second one the guy told me because he thought of it on the spot after I told him the first one
And then I told another friend just because, but she didn't respond quite how I thought she would

Re: Need Resources !!!
On the cross, how low do you think Jesus' confidence was? On a scale of one to ten I wonder if it wasn't a 3. He maybe thought of heaven and us and remembered why he was on there. I don't know. My friend Callie wouldn't give it a whole lot of thought. . .

Re: Need Resources !!!
Jesus didn't want to go through the ordeal of crucifixion, that much is clear from his prayers in the garden where he sweated blood, a condition symptomatic of burst blood vessels from a highly elevated heart rate due to extreme stress. It's been known to happen to soldiers in combat. But his cry on the cross of "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me!" is actually the beginning of Psalm 22 which speaks of the victory of God and those who serve him, so it wasn't an utterance of despair as some people believe.
