1) Who said, knows, or has seen that the Bulgarians don't protect us? I think you're wrong here, my friend, but you're not to blame; you just haven't encountered this.
2) The topic isn't silly. According to that legend, God created us in his image and likeness. ;) And why does everyone say that "sophisticated" phrase, "If I haven't seen it, I don't know it"? The world isn't simple, dear friends; such a crude expression has no meaning.
There's no need to be deluded; there are many religions, and each one is convinced of its own correctness. You, however, place your faith above all others.
And why can't God protect us (as his most beloved) from others in this way? (Protect us from others, prevent them from coming to us, etc.)
Because we believe in it. If we believe in it, then we consider it to be true. If it is true, then the rest are false. And if truth is of some value to us, then we value our faith more than others. If we put it on the same level as others, then in reality we don't have faith.
It's strange, Akella, your posts are generally quite reasonable, but you allow such an obvious logical fallacy:(
Why wouldn't God protect us by removing all dangers from the world? Why does he allow evil and violence? This means either he doesn't exist, or he is evil.... blah-blah-blah and so on:
I've written this ten times already: evil exists so that free will and good can exist. Aliens, from whom God should have protected us, may simply be another necessary test for humanity to continue on the path of good...
"Firstly, if you are believers, then remember Lucifer (the Deceiver) and the fact that, although he supposedly does evil, at least the Serpent did.
And why wouldn't God dislike some of his other sons!?...
Perhaps when they meet, the Deceiver (or whoever) will repent, or we will have such different views that we will quarrel, or something else...
Where are your arguments to the question "Why...?"?...
I apologize if something is wrong."
I read it... and I didn't understand anything:( Akella, can you explain it again, but in other words? Honestly, I don't get it:( The thought escapes me.
I agree with the second point...
But I disagree with the first. I was responding to the same phrase, "If I haven't seen it, I don't know it." And I asked, "Why can't God protect us in THAT way, i.e., by preventing them, the aliens, from coming to us?" That's how it was, so you are wrong here, my dear.


I understand that you don't see it that way, but I'm telling you that God protects us as long as we believe in Him, and when faith disappears, no one will care about us anymore. :)
Hmm... if God depends on our faith, then he doesn't exist, meaning he does exist, but in that case, God is simply our faith.


The only difference is that a person cannot escape from God, but essentially, you are right.


I'm getting confused now... :) How can I put it more eloquently? Well, let's take the theory that there are many gods, and our God is among them. So, he decided to create us (let's assume!) and revealed to us the basic principles of morality, the "golden rule," and so on. His children believe in him, saying, "Yes, this is our parent, we must strictly follow the rules, we must strive for the bright and good, we must go to the Temple and pray so that He protects us and is with us." But atheists appear, those who do not believe in this particular God and declare themselves "outside the principles of upbringing," i.e., they simply run away from faith, like children run away from their parents when they grow up. :) The parent remains alone and knows that this child will probably be better off without him. :)
