Nope, although they do allow priests to marry, putting them marginally ahead of Catholics in that respect.

Just some banter me and my brother role-played

Catholic (C) Athiest (A)

A: So you believe that everything happens to god's will?

C: Yes.

A: And having an abortion is against god's will?

C: Yes.

A: Thus his will is for people to go against his will by having an abortion?

C: Well... no...

A: And what about Hindu's? Isn't there a commandment that says 'Thou shall have only one god', thus he forces an entire people to not follow him.

C: Not actually...

A: So god's created a people just so they could go against his will?

C: Well, he wanted to-

A: Cause that god sounds pretty racist.

From what I can tell the idea God is actively involved in every single event is a bit of insane troll logic. I’m guessing people read/hear that he’s omnipotent and equate the ability to do everything with the desire to control everything.

Odd part about this is there are Bible passages the specifically cover the parts about free will and the Christian websites are pretty good about going over things in detail.

Although the opposite is true about the “infallibility of the Bible” idea. In which Christians pick a number of passages that talk about how awesome God and the things he say are and decides that theses passages magically make the entire Bible perfect.

Hmmm…

“ 11A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.”

1 Timothy 2:11-12

Yeah…proponents of the idea that the Bible itself is infallible? You might want to reconsider that position unless you’re ready to explain to the women of the world that, “The Apostle Paul thinks you should get back in the kitchen and make me a sammich.”

Yeah, the feminism thing.

Well, in there defenses it is in the Bible. Though the part where they believe it’s the infallible word of God is certainly in question. Not to mentioned the passage where it’s written that “The Holy Scripture is inspired by God” was written by the same cat who wrote all the misogyny and I doubt he knew the letter he was writing was going to become holy scripture at the time. Also, Paul was using logic out of the book of Genesis. The whole, “Jesus fulfilled the old covenant” thing sort of brings into question some of the legitimates of this logic.

Still, it’s in the Bible! tongue

Be fair about that- first of all, several errors and outright intentional changes by various people have occured in the thousands of years the Book has taken to get to this point. The harmless confusion about whether Jonah was swallowed by a whale or a fish makes one wonder about more harmful changes. The BOOK, as an object, is certainly fallible, God's word is not. (From a Christian perspective.)

But, on Insane Troll Logic? Here's a doozy: http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/

Several of their arguments. Reading their forum, I begin to think the whole thing may be a prank, but... Hanlon's Razor y'know?

Any time the anti-gay marriage people get to talking about how gay marriage will lead to marriage of father and daughter, or marriage of man and goat, it gets me to wondering if these guys even know how marriage actually works, like how both parties have to not only consent to sign the papers, but have to actually be able to sign the papers as well.

I have no idea if this helps prove the guy right or not. I listed to 1 and 1/2 sentences before abandoning the video in favor of keeping my brain from oozing out of my ears.

Those are videos from other people.

Ones who are often fully proud of having them online anyway.

The reuploader is skirting Poe's Law, yes.

However, I just watched a bunch of videos from that channel.

I might have nightmares. Can you pray for me please?
