Is that idea supported by the Bible?

I read an interesting post on Reddit and I'd like to ask you to share your thoughts on the matter. A Jewish man from America was married to a lady from Taiwan, they were both living in the US. His wife's mother, who lives in Taiwan, is practicing an Asian religion, I don't exactly remember what...

I support the eradication of ageism from society, but somehow "older adult" sounds more degrading to me than "senior". "Senior" has a certain prestige to it, but "older adult" just seems to point out that you're older, which is exactly the fact that ageism should be fighting against.

Uhm... Homeless shelters?

Why?

If an insane man somehow managed to escape from a maximum security asylum and started attacking citizens on the street, and there was an armed police officer with a lot of experience, who was three times as strong as the insane man, and the police officer was just standing there at the street...

I would never put my already poor health is peril by smoking and doing drugs. Weed is not even legal in my country, nor do I care if it were cause I would never touch it.

The very moment a person tries to sin, they are transported into a virtual reality in which everything except for themselves is not real, but merely a vision. The humans, animals etc. in that virtual reality feel 100% real, but are merely the sinner's hallucinations. After they finish sinning...

Then how could it be fair for us to be judged for actions that we didn't fully understand? We understand that it's irrational to punish toddlers for their mistakes. Why would it be rational to punish beings who have a poor understanding of existence? It matters to me.

That makes absolutely zero sense to me because I don't find belief to be volitional. It's like saying: "all blind people who refuse to look at this painting I made and appreciate its beauty won't have the joy of experiencing the emotions that art creates in humans. But it's their fault because...

Why would everyone blame you if sin had no consequence upon any other being than yourself?

What happens to those who refuse to worship Him? Why? According to what objective criteria did they deserve to die? What reason is it behind the rule that disobedience has death as a consequence? I can't think of a single such reason other than the fact that God made the rules this way. Is this...

I don't understand how someone who is able to stop bad from happening, but doesn't, and then requires worship in exchange for salvation from the bad he allowed to happen, can be characterized as loving and merciful for having acted this way. According to the definition of love, the well-being...

God didn't create sin, but He created a reality in which sin (or its consequences) is genetically transmissible and in which a being's sin affects other beings. Could He have created a reality in which sin was not transmissible and didn't affect anyone other than the being who sins?

Why do you need those things? I mean, I'm trying to understand the logic. Why would an omnipotent God, Who is able to stop all the demons from having interaction with humans, requires people to beg Him in large numbers and a certain amount of intensity in order to help them. Why do people need...

Why? Why are we linked to one another in that way? Why can't we all start out a clean slate and be given the very same opportunities that Adam and Eve were given in the beginning? Why do we inherit our parents' DNA? Why do we inherit our ancestors' sins? Why do the actions of some affect others...

I don't know if I understand your answer. One can leave Christianity without becoming an atheist or agnostic or even a deist. One can leave Christianity and still acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah. What do you mean by "having a Savior or forgiveness of sins"? Muslims and Jews ask for the...
