Now...pay attention because I'm going to give these two biblical examples once. And I know both of them will go over your head, but so be it. I can explain it to you, but it's way above my pay grade to get you to understand it.

Not interested in your biblical passages.
In your own words tell us how if your god is always meddling in men's affairs, i'e., installing the moron as US president, gay conversion of a set designer, how cone he is not responsible for Hitler and the Holocaust? At least why your god is not an accessory to Hitler's monstrous crimes, since your god set up everything since the foundation of the world?
The builder built a lemon and now blames the bricks he himself forged. And your are that absurd concept's enabler, that is if you could only explain it lunacy, beyond your convoluted unstable house of cards. 
All fall down.

Tough. That's all you're going to get. Take all your inane HOWS and all your stupid WHYS and stick one eacg up each of your nostrils.

Haven't you noticed? Life in this world is pure hell. Like I said, he's not doing a good job at it.
But don't worry. He doesn't exist.

Of course God exists. He is doing a wonderful job...and the allegiance among his "flock" is unwavering. Just look at all those wonderful private jets that his earthly "representatives" are flying around in.

Tough? Real deep scholarly answer. Hows and whys are where you fail miserly.
If you had any real connection with the divine as you claim you do, and no one else here has, you should be able to explain things a hell of a lot better.
Hows and whys, are otherwise known as "the devil is in the details."

You've been holding religious debates with Boxcar here for HOW LONG? And you still need more proof that he has no "real connection with the divine"? You aren't exactly a "quick study", hcap.

There's a word for the reason all these so-called "earthly representatives" are flying around in wonder private jets.
From Merriam-Webster
scam noun
: a fraudulent or deceptive act or operation
scam verb
1 : to deceive and defraud
2 : to obtain (something, such as money) by a scam

I call it an "act of justice". As the man said..."a fool and his money, were lucky to get together in the first place". No sympathy for the "suckers" out there...in any walk of life.

About a year ago he told us Trump was "installed" by god.
Been waiting to confront him on the Calvinistic ramifications of the elected to be "un-elected."
Brought that up, and he insisted it could and would not happen.
Just thought if by any chance, he could channel Calvin or Yahweh, he would be able to explain a loss. Which led to our bet.
Everything I have questioned him about recently is simply giving him a last chance to "proclomate" on his way out.
Some funny shit.

And if Trump loses this election...Boxcar will say that Biden was "installed" by the DEVIL. God already erred when he "installed" Obama...and he'd never make the same mistake twice.

Probably. But I will remind him according to John Calvin, "one elected, never to be un-elected"
Curious as to how he rewrites his Calvinism for the sake of his fringe politics.
The alternate universe of PA off topic is a laugh a minute if not taken seriously.

We all fail miserably because none of us are omniscient and therefore cannot see how each and every detail of every human life is woven into God's plan to fulfill his eschatological purposes. But be sure to let us know when you obtain that power.
Deut 29:29
29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.
NIV
