Yahweh be like "and I'll give this baby IBS! And this one blindness! And this one will die in the womb! And this one gets bone cancer!"
And then like 60% of the world's population kneels down to worship this entity and claim it is the source of all good.

Humanity is unsalvageably retarded.
If you disagree then please explain why an all good, all powerful, all knowing God would choose to give a baby a brain tumour.

Free will doesn't exist btw.
Even if it did why would a God need to torture a baby to test the free will of an entirely separate person? How does making babies have diseases test for free will at all?
It's nonsense given that if God were all knowing he'd already know the outcome of any potentiality any way, making any test redundant and unnecessary additional suffering, which he couldn't impose if he were all good.

The problem with the free will argument is that in the Old Testament, God is clearly willing to intervene with no regard for free will. He floods the earth because of mankind committing great sins, sends 10 plagues unto Egypt for enslaving the Israelites, sends a famine into Israel for worshiping Baal, etc.

Based on this, it is clear that free will is a post hoc reinterpretation. If God truly valued free will, then he should be a purely non-interventionist being who lets everything play out naturally. But this is deism which is incompatible with the Old Testament’s portrayal of God.

This leads back to the problem of evil. God is believed to be omnipotent and his behavior in the Old Testament indicates that he is willing to eradicate evil, so of course the question is why doesn’t he? You’re telling me he was willing to send a famine unto Israel 3000 years ago for worshipping false gods like Baal and Asherah, but doesn’t do anything to stop evil today?

Because they were brainwashed into the cult as children, and by the time they were old enough to realize how nonsensical it is they had already formed strong emotional dependency on the lies they were told, and the community they belong to. The way I see it, it is a kind of mental weakness. They need to be told they are special and that there is a plan for everyone and everything, that there are absolute good and evil in the universe and they were lucky enough to born into a family practicing the single correct religion out of hundreds of possibilities.

>>18494726
All this comes from debasing the value of life and pretending like conceiving isn't the greatest thing ever. This is because atheists/materialist are bitter losers who project their hatred of their own lives at life itself as a concept and so they value suffering over it, which is why so many of them are suicidal and sterile
A soul that would never be saved still receives two utmost gifts: life and no punishment, despite it's own wounded nature, and in this it's the happiest it could possibly be. As of the parents, long time suffering is a good thing so long as it leads to salvation, and as long as a man lives he can be saved. So if a parent loses a child and has to suffer for it, and this suffering then becomes a source of salvation, then both the child and the parents receive far more goods than they deserve from what is apparently a bad thing. This is why Christ chose to be crucified, which was a specially terrifying way to die, despite not being necessary for our redemption

He could have just made him NOT damned and healthy and born to loving parents, but that is sadly beyond the powers of the omnipotent creator of the universe. What's the point of creating everything and knowing everything if you don't make countless millions suffer horribly for no reason and then punish them eternally afterward for it?

In fairness the eternal torture shit is completely made up by christcucks.
Early Jews and Christians didn't believe in an immortal soul, that is a Platonic idea and became integrated into Christianity in Greece. Jews, including Christ himself, believed in bodily resurrection. God would resurrect everyone who ever died by putting the breath of life back into their bodies just as he did Adam, and then the faithful would live forever in Heaven, while the non-believers would be cast into the lake of fire, not to suffer eternally but to be destroyed and stop existing.

This is all readily apparent from contemporary sources and the earliest translations of the Bible. It's funny how christcucks can claim their religion is holy truth and then believe shit that isn't even actually in their magic book.
Other examples include the serpent of the garden being satan, and the idea that the devil rules over hell

Because God didn't create all humans, he shaped some of us in his image. 90% of humans are just evolved monkeys, a 5-minute browsing of this site should be evidence enough of that. Have you not ever wondered why there are just exceptional individuals, and then there's just people like you?

What fate would you give Hitler or (insert your chosen scapegoat enemy) as a punishment after they have reincarnated eternally forever and ever?

Think carefully now, OP, since you love to play God of hypotheticals how about you assume God responsibility and determine how to punish the most evilest le evil ever? You cannot cop out and cry and say why did God create mans ability to do evil because then I will assume I am talking to a five year old who cannot be bothered to answer for their actions
>>
>>18495507
>What fate would you give Hitler or (insert your chosen scapegoat enemy) as a punishment after they have reincarnated eternally forever and ever?
So why didn't God kill Hitler?
For that matter, why did he not prevent him being born instead of the hypothetical of killing him as an infant?
>>
>>18495544
Moving the goals posts? Why why why why? You know who asks why? Five year olds, try and play with the facts here.

Hitler is le most evil man ever, I proposed that if he is reincarnated as what do you do? Giving a little kid with cancer sounds hilarious then, why not? You suddenly have compassion for your enemies all of a sudden? How very Christian of you
>>
>>18495555
>Moving the goals posts?
I'm not moving the goalposts. The question was why god gives fatal diseases to children, with the obvious implication that it is not just or moral to do so. Your response was to pontificate about Hitler and reincarnation (something your religion isn't supposed to believe in, by the way), suggesting that infant mortality is a punishment for misdeeds in a previous life.
So I asked why the misdeeds were allowed to occur.
You have no answer.

>Giving a little kid with cancer sounds hilarious
Edgy teenage wannabe sadist. One day someone will kick your teeth in and you won't be so edgy
>>
>>18495561
>something your religion is not supposed to believe in
According to which denomination you ape? Also Jesus spoke about everlasting life, sorry you are not equipped to understand that


Yes you moved the goalposts as to why the deeds occur, but since you need to be taught like a child apparently I will do so.

People make mistakes in to learn. If you dont make mistakes, what are you learning from? Thus good learns from evil. If you cannot understand this I am sorry you are really soft of mind and not worthy of debating morals or anything else with.
>>
>>18495565
>According to which denomination you ape?
All of them.
>Also Jesus spoke about everlasting life
Yeah, in heaven, with god, at the end of the world. Find me one time Jesus mentions being reborn into the world in a new body
>Yes you moved the goalposts as to why the deeds occur,
Nah you offered an explanation for why infants would suffer and die, I questioned your explanation on the basis that your god is supposedly all powerful and could prevent the harm the person is now supposedly being punished for. Sorry if you can't handle critiques of your faulty logic.
>People make mistakes in to learn. If you dont make mistakes, what are you learning from?
What do you expect someone to learn from being reborn as an infant and immediately dying? Especially as presumably they don't have any memory of their previous lives.
And I hate to be a stickler about this point, but I'm obligated to remind you that your religion does not believe in reincarnation.
>you are really soft of mind and not worthy of debating morals or anything else with.
You don't need to excuse yourself from an argument with cope on this site. If you feel outmatched just slink away and don't reply, no one will even notice.
>>
>>18495584
I said you were unworthy of debate. Which you are but I could humor your soft and limited mind for a few moments longer.

Christianity is not “my” religion it does not belong to me I did not start it you dolt. I can claim Christian values and understand because I unlike you have actually read the Bible, and understood what needed to be understood.

As for why you cry about suffering; what else would you cry about if you were a special pampered boy forever? You cannot know pain without knowing love, this is a simple concept to grasp but somehow it is lost on you.

Again the idea that Hitler being reincarnated and dying does not serve as a lesson for you apparently and it offends your sensibilities because you call me edgy and say people should do violence on my teeth.

Your moral compass seems great anon, dare I question it
>>
>>18495594
>Christianity is not “my” religion it does not belong to me I did not start it you dolt.
Deliberately obtuse interpretation.
>I can claim Christian values and understand because I unlike you have actually read the Bible
And yet keep referencing reincarnation which isn't in the Bible. I've asked you to show me where such a thing is discussed, if you've read it and I haven't that should be pretty easy, right?
>You cannot know pain without knowing love
Think you got those two backwards there bud, but good attempt.
Either way, I'm not crying about suffering I'm asking you why you think your all-powerful and benevolent god would decide it's more reasonable to punish people by reincarnating them as terminally ill infants instead of just never letting them be born to do acts worth punishing. You still have no answer to this. It's not as if human evil is the only way suffering is inflicted, so you can't retreat into your cope that suffering allows for contrast and appreciation of good things in life.
>you call me edgy and say people should do violence on my teeth.
Yeah you said babies with cancer are hilarious, and I told you truthfully that I think you're a teenager in that phase where saying edgy shit to provoke people is exhilarating. What you'll find when you become an adult is that there are people who absolutely will kick the shit out of you for acting like that. I don't wish harm upon you, I'm telling you what will happen if you keep acting that way once the shield of childish folly is no longer available to you

Irony is I am probably older than you like I am older than a lot of the tweenagers and 20 somethings who congregate in this God forsaken place.

If you cannot understand simple duality again you are just a goofball. A goofball is one step above a child in my eyes, children get the benefit of the doubt. Goofballs are condemned to suffer in their own ignorance. Do you think God shows mercy to the ignorant? Do you not see the rewards that wisdom bestow to those who can wield power over simpletons like yourself?

There is no god. There is no one "out there" looking out for us. This fact is too brutal and existentially depressing for most of the human species so they have to invent various flavors of niggers in clouds with magical powers watching our backs to avoid dealing with the fact that we live in an indifferent universe. The only rael thing we can point to that has any taste of divine power is the fact that we got a ticket to the freakshow. That's it. There are no guarantees of anything at all and there are no refunds. Existence can be and often is unfair and cruel. What is even more cruel is that we don't raeli know much of anything at all as to what its for and why we're here. The dark side of freedom, the terror of it. Most people are driven insane by the facts. They literally cain't stand it so they need space daddy to pat their backs and tell them its going to be okay in a world where everything is falling apart into ash and dust. I'm not edgy, I just live in an edgy world in which we could get smashed like ants at any given time. The true divinity is nothing more than the movie screen upon which the dance of experience happens. Let's stop fucking around and just say it how it is, if hell exists we are already in it. Hell isn't a place where you just get tortured nonstop, it is a place that leads you on, before taking everything you ever loved and held dear, smothering a pie in your face, kicking you in the balls and yelling HAH HAH! YOU THOUGHT SPACE DADDY WAS LOOKING OUT FOR YOU, YOU STUPID FAGGOT.
