Yeah, I'm not even going to continue arguing with you at this point. You're taking what was indentured servitude for 7 years as a way to pay debts and equating it with American slavery, where slave masters literally cut parts of the Bible out so slaves wouldn't know the truth.
Congratulations, you learned how to Google common fallacies. Your solution to orphanages was abortion as it was implied earlier, so that's not a false dichotomy. If you want to pay for my adoption, I'll adopt a child right now. I'll send you my PayPal information.
"ChatGPT, take this statement and create a superfluous dissection into every logical fallacy you can think of so I look super smart!"
You're doing the exact same thing Satan does in the Bible, this is nothing new. Jesus says He never knew people in that passage, because they used His name for their own benefit and not for His glory. People like prosperity gospel leaders who have their own congregation-paid private jet for no reason. God made it very simple for us to be saved. All people need to do is accept the free gift of salvation from Jesus, whom died a horrific, barbaric death despite doing no wrong so that we may be saved. God gives us free will to choose what we will do. If we do not wish to be with God, He honors that.
I've laid out 3 other verses in a separate reply that says the same thing that is said in Jeremiah. Job mentions us as being formed by God in the womb and he was no prophet. I don't know why you're so angry, but what you're stating is "out of context" is incorrect.
That's like saying a all-knowing God would know which people were going to be slaves all their lives 150 years ago, so He didn't put much effort into creating them. Every life has value to God, whether they are birthed or not.
I can't even afford a house in this economy, how am I supposed to adopt someone right now? I am happy to adopt once I get married and have my own place. Have you adopted anyone or would you just prefer murdering the children instead?
"For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb." - Psalm 139:13
"Thus says the Lord who made you, who formed you from the womb and will help you: Fear not, O Jacob my servant, Jeshurun whom I have chosen." Isaiah 44:2
"Did not he who made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the womb?" Job 31:15
The Wikipedia article conveniently leaves these out. It's very clear that God knows us before we ever existed.
Yes, we do. We have hundreds of charities that are dedicated to helping said children. My favorite right now is Let Them Live. The organization works with the mother to provide food, clothing, furniture, and everything else a mother would need to take care of the baby. They also provide other money and counseling for the mother as well. They regularly check in with the women and some of the mothers even end up working in the charity to help others. https://letthemlive.org/
I just recently found out about the Christian Alliance For Orphans who work on helping families foster and adopt orphans. They are becoming a massive network of churches dedicated to helping orphaned children. https://cafo.org/
Christians don't want to murder anyone. We don't want anyone to go to Hell. I don't understand why you are okay with punishing a baby with murder for your bad decisions instead of having personal responsibility. That's pretty sickening.
Imagine putting all the ingredients together to make a cake, putting it in the oven, and getting upset that a cake is being made. It's absolutely insane.
Work and economics was my point all along. The other metrics mentioned by the original article are subjective. People care more about being able to survive financially than the ability to chemically castrate their child.
Lmao you live in a bubble, bud. Most people that are moving here are families who left due to increased cost of living from shitty policies made by democrat governors.
Yes, it's because they're not great people. Definitely nothing to do with the horrific cost of living due to higher rent and state taxes in blue states.
Why are they leaving Dem states for Rep states if they're so great to live in?

Can anyone explain why this says the exact opposite?
That's not what he said. I just read his statement. He said it disproportionately affected white and black people while not being nearly as deadly to Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese. He didn't say they were immune. He did say after that he doesn't know if this is intentional or not, which I guess can be seen as antisemitic, but that means he's also targeting China as well. The headline is, not surprisingly, misleading.
That's actually false. Luke 16:19 (the story of the rich man and Lazarus) dispels this statement.
That's the thing. I don't want you or anyone to go to Hell. I don't think you're less than me or anything.
Also the sky daddy thing has never bothered me. Damn right, he's my sky daddy. He loves me and He loves you too.
I'm sick and tired of non-believers using God as propaganda fuel for their own political ideology.
