An American man has been killed by an endangered tribe in India's Andaman and Nicobar islands. Fishermen who took the man to North Sentinel island say tribespeople shot him with arrows and left his body on the beach. He has been identified as John Allen Chau, a 27 year old from Alabama. Contact with the endangered Andaman tribes living in isolation from the world is illegal because of the risks to them from outside disease. Estimates say the Sentinelese, who are totally cut off from civilisation, number only between 50 and 150.

If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and readied his bow;
I was an atheist too. You sound like an intellectual. Perhaps Simon Greenleaf will be of interest to you? Truth is indeed, exclusive.
The Indian guy behind him wears an expression of weary disgust that his for the ages. It might as well have a big balloon with the words”How stupid can some people be?”
Uh, Central Mexico in the 16th century. Estimates go as high as 80% of the native population died from a variety of new (to them ) diseases. Many I am sure considered the Aztec-Mexica in a more favorable light during this trip to hell. The fun filled Mexica could only manage to perform cardiectimies on a couple hundred thousand captives a year, max.
‘he very first commandment to Adam that never changed: subdue the earth. ‘
Uh, it would seem the locals subdued him in a pretty emphatic manner.
you can’t spread the word if you are dead. He committed suicide by going there. End of subject.
That isn’t God’s opinion, and He has the last word on all things.
And in the process the gospel is broadcasted to the whole world, mirroring the same love Christ had for dead sinners on their way to destruction.
It was obvious enough in your posts on this thread. You didn't need to state it.
I disagree. Prior to my post number 75, nothing that I said on this thread was incompatible with any number of other religious points of view, evangelical Christianity being an obvious exception.
It was obvious enough for me to spot it.
Except you already knew I was an atheist beforehand. Quoting you:
Class of 2017 and proud atheist as per other threads.
I must admit that I am amused by the way you say proud atheist is if its a mark of shame. :-)
“Except you already knew I was an atheist beforehand. Quoting you:”
Nope, I didn’t know anything about you before this thread.
Your posts here made me suspect that atheism is where you are coming from, and then I took a look at your timeline and saw you mention it. No “beforehand” involved. It’s not that hard to spot.
okay, this is the LAST thing I’m going to say about this, and I do mean it this time.
Both you, and the moron seem to be suffering from HUMAN arrogance, because neither of you for a MINUTE have considered the possibility that GOD Himself wanted those people left alone. He put them on an Island by themselves...did you consider that maybe, just maybe He has reason for not wanting them to interact with others until a time that HE chose? No? Then quit preaching to me. I don’t try to move Gods’ timetable...maybe the rest of you should stop.

This is a conservative forum. A great many of us honor the Scriptures. If that is too much for you, make your way over the the Democratic Underground.
