So it is all just a massive ego trip.

It is a judgment – a subjective opinion – on someone else's faith and religious knowledge and understanding.
You do it quite regularly, actually, with your comments about 'you and you are going to hell'.
Within the terms of your religion, it is not for you to judge the nature of another's relationship with god. Only your god has the right to do that.
Indeed, one might also point out Christ's teaching about not being seen carrying out your devotions – frankly, most of what you do on this forum is a version of that: 'Look at me – I'm the one with a relationship with Jesus; I'm the one who's right and you're all wrong and going to hell. Aren't I so completely the most wonderfully religious person you've ever seen?'
It's in Matthew somewhere – I think Jesus describes people like you as hypocrites.
It's not evangelism. It's showing off. And judgmentalism. Pure and simple.

Quote: cod'ead "So, if we are all descended from Adam & Eve, then presumably we are all products of incestuous relationships'"
Yes, though before you lay into that concept you might want to remember that abiogenesis has a similar incestuous 'yucky' problem.
Quote: cod'ead "would that explain why there are a proportion of people born with birth defects or who later develop mental or physical problems?'"
In a way, yes. Death and disease entered the world. This includes certain handicaps.
Quote: cod'ead "Given also that Adam supposedly lived for 930 years, he must've been banging his daughters and presumable their kids wholesale'"
Not necessarily, he might have left that to his children. In any case, it's no more icky that abiogenesis.
Quote: cod'ead "It certainly doesn't explain the many different races and creeds though. How did that happen?'"
The Tower of Babel.

God has no problem with correcting professing Christians when they are clearly wrong.
Matthew 18You do it quite regularly, actually, with your comments about 'you and you are going to hell'.'"
They are if they are not born again. That is not my judgement, but God's Word.
Quote: Mintball "Within the terms of your religion, it is not for you to judge the nature of another's relationship with god. Only your god has the right to do that'" .
See above.

I am not religious.
Quote: Mintball "It's in Matthew somewhere – I think Jesus describes people like you as hypocrites.'"
Biblically speaking, a hypocrite is a person who shows off but does not have a true relationship with God. I do have that relationship.

You are working for Satan. Don't tempt me.

God's righteous and just reaction to rebellion.

Which, since he created everything (according to the [iBible[/i), then "rebellion" was also created by him – unless the [iBible[/i was telling porkies, of course ...

I do love this.
It's not the first time you've posted this particular bit of dribbling drivel.
I suspect it's because you realise someone else actually does have a clue about the bunk you're wittering on about and oh, you don't like that at all, do you?

You will no doubt recall that even Satan could recite and pervert Scripture.
I have nothing more to say to you.

Oh dear. You really don't like being challenged, do you?
Still, that means you get out of answering that last awkward little question, doesn't it?
If your god created everything, then he created rebellion too.
And you're an intellectual coward as well as everything else.

It's brilliant though! I'm going to use it all the time now. I wish I'd not replied to Smokey all those times on the Assange thread now, all I needed to put was "No, you are wrong. You are working for Satan." and just left it at that!

It is strange since he has already answered this question in rlthis postrl. The rebellion is an essential part of God's plan. Without it God would be unable to show his glorious wrath, mercy, patience, justice, grace etc.
