You would be able to do more about it if you put all your effort and resources into it. Instead you chose to make a snarky post, out of the safety of your little comfort zone, asking a god to intervene, you don't believe in.
Actually, the meme was to point out the absurdity of the concept of God. And I doubt the Atheist is asking god to intervene... But go ahead and be upset, it just shows that the original point of the meme point landed.
I bet that sounded cooler in your head.
Some people read what they wrote before they post it, you know, to make sure it makes sense and whatnot. But not you, you know a cool statement when you think it! No need to worry about little things like no one asking a god they don't believe in to do jack. I mean, that's kind of the whole point, that god won't do anything to stop a rape. So what's the point in asking?
As someone who's stopped actual child SA, I have done everything in my power to stop such things from occuring.
Gods are omnipotent, and yet they refuse to do what I have done within my abilities 100% of the time.
So what now?
Everything in your power? If you where completely honest you would admit that is not the full truth. For example in the time you wrote this comment you could have done something that really helps against the issue instead.
Why argue in bad faith? Whether or not I spend every waking moment of my life preventing child abuse, I would still do more than god has when it comes to a ratio of how much impact I have v.s. how much impact I could have. My life is finite. The lives of deities are not.
I can only prevent one lifetimes worth of child abuse at most. God can stop child abuse from happening. And from that alone, I am fundamentally doing more to prevent child abuse per second than any god is.
And if you really want to go down that argument, there's only so much I can do. But when it happens right in front of me, I step in. I donate to charitable causes to can make much more of a difference that I could alone, converting wealth from my labor into action. But fundamentally, I also need rest and relaxation. I am only human.
But gods don't have such limitation. And yet, here we are.
Literally it just boils down to: If given the option to prevent child abuse from ever happening by simply pushing a button, I would smack the button in an instant. Gods can't even do that.
Wow that must have really hit a nerve with you...
They are showing kindness and understanding and openness and giving you the benefit of the doubt right now.
Meanwhile, you scramble and grasp for words that you imagine might somehow hurt.
You're the only one who looks unnerved. You're clearly bothered by the calm, compassionate, composure that none of your provocations can crack.
Ephemeral Sun hasn't stooped to your level once.
Well you are blaming them for child abuse/assault.
I'd be pissed if I was him too.
What the fuck? You're blaming them for ca happening. What kind of weirdo wouldn't be mad about that
Your sad attempt at an ad hominem proves that you ran out of arguments, not that you had any to begin with.
So, you're fine with kids being raped? Since all you do is tell other people to do something about it?
Ah, logic! Always working both ways!
It's weird that you're focusing on the "weak human", instead of the all powerful God.
Why hasn't God just not made people who assault children? Why did he create a person who does that?
God didn't give me the tools and power to stop kids getting raped, if he did I would absolutely stop it from happening but that God just doesn't help me stop these child rapists.
tf you on about. what do you want them to do, they already stopped a sexual assault, what more can be done? make a secret society for the purpose of murdering rapists and making it look like an accident? that's not in their power. y'all will find anything to justify your god, even if it means saying that stopping a sexual assault is not that cool. in the time you wrote your comment, what would you have done?
He did some thoughts and prayers ๐๐
