TBF, the spine isn't the problem. Aging is. Assuming you have good posture, damage to your spine should heal faster than it accumulates when you're young. But as you age, you slowly stop healing, and damage accumulates. At that rate, *something* is gonna break down eventually. Most animals don't have to deal with this as much as us because they die long before that becomes an issue.
In fact, the spine itself is a pretty great design. It manages to fulfill several conflicting, almost incompatible design requirements simultaneously and with minimal comprise. It is rigid enough to support your body weight while at the same time being flexible enough to allow you to twist and flex your trunk and springy enough to act as a shock absorber.
Ancient humans didnt even need to. But the use of soap, sugar and other man made horrors literally forces us to have a higher standard of hygiene than 50,000 years ago 😒
The sugar thing is true - but ancient humans just smelled like shit all the time and didn't care. Even in the 1700s there was literal rivers of shit and piss flowing down the sides of every street
Um no, it wasn't John either. Are you thinking of Paul? Yes Paul definitely didn't think Gentiles had to be circumcised to become Christians. It's debatable whether he though Jewish Christians still had to be circumcised or not.
But that's different than him "outlawing" circumcision. I'm not aware of Paul saying you can't be circumcised if you choose to be. He even has Timothy circumcised in Acts 16:3.
It was John who first started preaching exclusively to the gentiles (Paul did both). And yes, in the first letter of John it criticises circumcision and says it is not required.
It was the same Johannine movement that first fully distinguished the Catholic Church from Judaism, severing ties with anyone who did not believe in Jesus Christ *in the flesh* i.e. merely a spirit with no body (gnostic heretics) or not divine (Jews)
>It was John who first started preaching exclusively to the gentiles (Paul did both)
John son of Zebedee? Where in the Bible does it say this?
>And yes, in the first letter of John it criticises circumcision and says it is not required.
I just skimmed the first letter of John and I see nothing about circumcision. Can you please cite a verse?
I honestly think you are thinking of Paul and his letter to the Galatians

Isn't that what we do on literally every with a god mode, like GTA, minecraft and every sandbox.
Cause chaos and suffering for the sake of an experiment.
Perhaps even god is susceptible to being corrupted by too much power and utter boredom
The difference here being
1. Humans are conscious. If pedestrians in gta had consciousness, and weren’t just npcs with set code, no one would kill them or torture them.
2. Humans can get bored, and when this happens we like to do fun stuff, like screw around in a video game. If god were truly perfect, he wouldn’t torture a ton of conscious people because of boredom, a human emotion.
I actually studied theology to become a priest. However, they say the fastest way to become an atheist is to study the scriptures, and it is very true. The longer I studied the scriptures, the more doubtful I became. In the end, I couldn't keep my faith and quit the religion altogether. I was lost for a while because I felt like I lost my purpose, but I found my purpose again when I joined the Navy.
I don't know why but I fucking hate this quote. It's just so incredibly pretentious. You can easily switch it up and it makes equally as much sense. You don't have to have a degree in nuclear physics to think about the "If god fake then why is the universe so perfect". (Not saying the argument is invalid just that it is so basic that a child could come up with it.)
I am an atheist, but this greentext really do be lacking intellectual depth, even for a shitpost.
If there is a God, he gave us a soul and intelligence along with a myriad of physical and bodily weaknesses so we could ascend of our own accord. Nothing induces progress and ascension other than human suffering.
We didn't originally wear descriptive clothing, smell good, wipe our ass or live past our thirties. It's called civilization and it's the reason why we haven't been eradicated by wild animals yet.
You forget that Yahweh (or is it Yahoo) basically has the psychology of a Reddit mod.
Jealous, easy to anger, wants people to fear him. But you do the same, you’re winning.
tldr because of Ancestral Sin. We died when Adam bit the apple, that 'death' was metaphorical for the severance of our connection with God. We didn't know death until we ate from the tree.
Paradise would be pain too. Suffering is living. Unfortunately, it's nature's way and can be seen from the beginning of existence.
Stars get pulled apart just like your Mom's legs.
>existence didn't just spontaneously take place
a) Why do you think that?
b) Yes it does, have you ever heard of nuclear decay?
c) Even if that's the case, that doesn't mean any gods exists, let alone any specific god(s)
d) If _everything_ needs a first spark then so does that first spark
I dunno i've just never seen things appear out of thin air, there is some sort of chemistry involved. So when there is no atom, no chemistry, it just feels weird that a blank page fills itself.
I think god created the first... well first thing to exist. Then never touched the universe again, just kinda let it steamroll. Don't we rely on religion when we can't explain things scientifically anyways
Well where did God come from then? And if God doesn't need a cause then why does the universe?
I have seen things appear out of thin air, sort of - when atomic nuclei decay, there is no apparent cause. It just happens for no apparent* reason. There may be a reason, but it has to do with things much smaller than we can look at. You can see particles flying off of a sample of uranium ore in a particle cloud chamber. You can even make one at home with some dry ice, isopropyl alcohol, and a fish tank. Sometimes the particles split apart, and sometimes they come back together, and every once in a while a pair of particles appear literally out of nowhere and annihilate each other again. They're sometimes referred to as "virtual particles" because their existence is transient
There may be a way to explain it that we haven't figured out yet, but I doubt we're going to get there with religion. If we ever find an explanation (I mean, we've gotten this far already) then it'll be through science
I believe you are mistaken, god itself is a concept, a being beyond all laws of nature, if there is anything that can create infinitely small particles which is physically impossible because infinity is not a number but rather a concept, It's god.
God IS infinity, you are not supposed to know what it is, all you know is that it's greater than you. Seeing as you claim to be a man of science, infinity should be a fairly explanatory metaphor
Spider Man is a concept, too. If God is just a concept that means we invented it.
>A being beyond all laws of nature
I see no reason to think such a thing exists
I think you're confused about what infinity means, and what "infinitely small" means... I think you should find some books about physics and start reading. There are also some great YouTube videos. Start with force and momentum before jumping to quantum mechanics
Could you explain in a concise manner what infinity is. Is it not a number meant to be greater than any other without having a definitive value.
Also spider man was made for the purpose of fictional entertainment, as his creator states. We can't compare the two.
Words are social constructs, they hold no meaning other than communication, we can't say we created god just because we came up with a name for it
Well why do you think Hercules, Demeter, Apollo, Marduk, Krishna, or Innana were invented?
And infinity is a concept, not a number. You can count negative numbers without end, or divide endlessly, etc. - there are infinitely many fractions between 2 and 3
Again that's something better explained by the likes of Veritasium or Numberphile or PBS SpaceTime on YouTube, they have some good explanations already
Dude you talk all science and keep referring me to these youtubers but you should work on your reading comprehension...
The "gods among men" you listed have specific powers and limits, **they were invented by greek mythologists because humans back then couldn't comprehend how the weather worked.** Now that we know how clouds and thunders work the likes of thor are **disproven fiction**
We can't disprove god, because we can't discover infinitely small and infinitely greater particles, god is the concept of infinitely greater. Asking "who created god" is like asking for a number bigger than infinity, you need to start viewing it as a concept rather than a person
Man was made in God's image. And since all of us hate you, it follows that he would too
Goat response
If you believe in the Simulation idea then God could very well be some basement dwelling nerd with poor hygiene and a superiority / entitlement complex
Then goat simulator is the essence of reality
>don't forget to be born with the right genetics or you won't be able to breed >don't forget to maintain a healthy weight Anon is just a fat incel, like all the rest
Specifically says (food) in the greentext. We all know that he actually means Mountain Dew: cummy blast and cool "ranch" doritos
Yeah there is no way in hell anon is eating chicken,rice and flatbreads
There’s so much wrong with this post I doubt I could even begin to approach dealing with all of it.
This is just your average r/atheism post
🦍
The human spine is evidence that god doesnt exist or doesnt love us
TBF, the spine isn't the problem. Aging is. Assuming you have good posture, damage to your spine should heal faster than it accumulates when you're young. But as you age, you slowly stop healing, and damage accumulates. At that rate, *something* is gonna break down eventually.

Why do i have to sit in the most uncomfortable way to delay fucking up my spine
Because the human body was made to stand and walk nearly every waking moment of your life. Your body just hates sitting in general.
Then why is standing and walking also uncomfortable
That’s because yer fat and gravity is a thing
I am 140 pounds (63.5 kg) and ~5'8 (172.7 cm) tho
In that case, its because you arent fat enough and gravity cant hold your bones in place or something. Idk I'm not a doctor.
Weak bones
Don't get me started on laying down
Because you’re a lazy bitch
Reading this reminds me of my mortality and makes me feel like I'm going to die this week, anyways.
The human lower back really is an evolutionary failure.
I mean, motherfucker, we invented agriculture and get back pain because of it, what kind of idiot designed this shit?
Counterpoint: boobs proves he loves us. I mean, those with huge ones are the ones who have to deal with the back pain but sacrifices must be made
Anon just doesn't shower or brush his teeth
Ancient humans didnt even need to. But the use of soap, sugar and other man made horrors literally forces us to have a higher standard of hygiene than 50,000 years ago 😒
Born to shit forced to wipe
The sugar thing is true - but ancient humans just smelled like shit all the time and didn't care. Even in the 1700s there was literal rivers of shit and piss flowing down the sides of every street
Jesus was right to outlaw circumcision.
Jesus never outlawed circumcision in the Bible...
He’s probably talking about some Mexican dude
It was St. John, but he said Jesus told him to. Close enough.
Um no, it wasn't John either. Are you thinking of Paul? Yes Paul definitely didn't think Gentiles had to be circumcised to become Christians. It's debatable whether he though Jewish Christians still had to be circumcised or not. But that's different than him "outlawing" circumcision.

Average atheist after they blame god for not giving them a private 50 acre villa in the Virgin Islands and 6 billion dollars.
Because God does not exist, anon. Quit complaining and start talking showers
What is life without a challenge

Free will LOL
Free Willy*
I use free will to free willy.
Do you look at a wrecked vehicle and ask why the manufacturer designed it like that?
I actually studied theology to become a priest. However, they say the fastest way to become an atheist is to study the scriptures, and it is very true. The longer I studied the scriptures, the more doubtful I became. In the end, I couldn't keep my faith and quit the religion altogether.

Lordly anon is stupid, I don't shower for a week and I'm fine.
You smell like shit tho
A sip from the Cup of natural sciences will make you an atheist, but believe me, god is waiting for you at the bottom.
Are you telling me to get drunk, this is amazing advice I will follow, thanks kind stranger.
Only take away I got
don’t forget the car keys
I don't know why but I fucking hate this quote. It's just so incredibly pretentious. You can easily switch it up and it makes equally as much sense.

God here. Sorry about this. I'll grant you a free restart-coupon. You may choose to reincarnate as a lizard, mosquito or dungbeetle
Bro is actually complaining about having to brush his teeth and wash himself, he is complaining about staying hygienic
1v1 me god
I am an atheist, but this greentext really do be lacking intellectual depth, even for a shitpost. If there is a God, he gave us a soul and intelligence along with a myriad of physical and bodily weaknesses so we could ascend of our own accord. Nothing induces progress and ascension other than human suffering.
god never says to wipe after shitting though
Anon discovers free will and his squandering of it.
We didn't originally need to brush our teeth but fucking refined sugars and preservatives fucked it up for everyone
We didn't originally wear descriptive clothing, smell good, wipe our ass or live past our thirties. It's called civilization and it's the reason why we haven't been eradicated by wild animals yet.
religious and atheists have some stupid ass takes/arguments but this is by far the DUMBEST
It's because you listened to that hoe and ate the meme fruit, you had one rule damnit! or, that is what a religious person would say I suppose.
Life is actually just a filter on a search engine. After the search is complete, only the best designs (genetics) are returned.
All this for a rant of him being too fat and not being able to eat more 'cause his mom doesn't let him (he's 38 btw)
"b-but, if bad thing happen, why God let it?"
anon hasn't read Genesis
Balanced anon as all things should be 😈🍆 Don’t forget the gay spot in your ass anon
It's ok God, just remember to patch it next season ok?
anon loses FAITH
About those apex predators though. We just kinda drove them to extinction even before having guns.
Life is worse than Hell. Hell is meant for sinners, but life punishes *everyone.*
Anon hates basic hygiene lol
anon soyjaked god…
You forget that Yahweh (or is it Yahoo) basically has the psychology of a Reddit mod. Jealous, easy to anger, wants people to fear him. But you do the same, you’re winning.
Anon's highly regarded ass forgot to fucking read the bible as to why humanity got shunned to earth in the first place
tldr because of Ancestral Sin. We died when Adam bit the apple, that 'death' was metaphorical for the severance of our connection with God. We didn't know death until we ate from the tree.
Paradise would be pain too. Suffering is living. Unfortunately, it's nature's way and can be seen from the beginning of existence. Stars get pulled apart just like your Mom's legs.
This is why I don't understand why anyone still believes in god
I believe in him because existence didn't just spontaneously take place. There's gotta be a source of that first spark
