You're taking Hosea out of context, and I have no idea where you twist the idea that the bible says life begins when you breath air, there's many examples where God acknowledges individuals before birth, in the womb, or provides for compensation to a family if a mother with child is injured and loses the baby.

does jesus/god have the power to stop the rapes before they happen?
In Numbers 5:11-31, it is said that âif a husband suspects his wife is pregnant by another man, the âhusband shall bring his wife to the priest,â who shall mix a drink intended to make her confess or be threatened with termination of her pregnancy if she has been unfaithful to her husband.â
you told me you have done indepth study of the bible. try it without christian apologetics to excuse the inconsistencies
:
âAnd the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.â
Genesis 2:7
Yes,
but God gives man the right to choose his own actions, if you want the former you have to give him the right to involve himself and control every aspect and action....... while it hurts Him to see mankind act the way it does, he allows you to make up your own mind. He doesn't want mindless robots.
You also ignore the opposite pole in this equation, Satan, while he is still unbound, has the ability to tempt and persuade.
There will come a day when everything is placed back into it's original order, the decaying effect of sin will be corrected and paid.
is satan more powerful than jesus/god?
As powerful, and there's the rub for the true believers, but it's the only thing that makes sense if you believe in anything at all. The whole, he could but he won't argument just doesn't make sense, least not to me.
Quote from Brass:
Not bad, FT. You're on a roll.
Perhaps the reason some of these people here are defending the bible is because they're not sufficiently familiar with it. Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller said that the best way to convert someone to an atheist is to have him actually read the bible.
Atheism is an ideology...
Ideology and religion have been battling since the 19th C. ... Religion will win out...! It always does...
