>bad thing happen mean god not realWhat are you 12?
>>542415492God is evil
>>542415787>doesn’t answer the question
>>542415787Look at the chart. It isn't saying god isn't real it's just proving that if there is a god it can't possibly be all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-good at the same time. In other words the Christian God isn't real.
>>542415650/thread
>>542415629The nature of evil debate has been long before Christianity. In the end the Greeks thought that their gods were just like us and no different only alot more powerful. Feared and respected yes but worshipped for their nature not really.
>>542415492Some of you remember me constantly posting these posts.https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/528529495/#q528534771https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/528529495/#q528534871Adam, Eve and Satan challenged God's sovereignty. Satan accused Jehovah of bribing Job in exchange for loyalty. Christianity is meant to answer those challenges. That's all.>What is it meant to accomplish?To prove three things:>Satan is a liar>Humanity cannot govern themselves>Humans will be loyal to God in return for nothing.>Was is the solution to all the world's problems?After God is satisfied with those issues thoroughly being answered and accomplished he will bring Armageddon to earth. A one world government ruled by Jesus Christ as king. That regime is simply called God's Kingdom
>>542415650>Good is what the powerful decide it ishmmm yeah not sure on that one chief
>>542415492>test us>freewillAren't these christian arguments written 300 years after epicurus died, also why did this greek polytheist care so much about the hebrew god?
Free will has to have evil option otherwise humanity doesnt have the full range of possibilities to choose from, its more evil to be a dictator abd force people against their will to love you and making them robots with no agency, God chose the lesser of two evils. Pretty much like the god emperor of dune and the golden path.
>>542416483It's not about free will. >>542416360
>>542416524It's not about free will >>542416360Suffering is unnecessary to have free will.
>>542415629Kek
>>542415492>does worshiping "this particular god" benefit me?If yes, then worship.If no, then don't.
>>542416601But you need the full extent of suffering, since god is a god of knowledge he unsterstands what the full extent of suffering is as a concept, if he gives you very little suffering then its not its full capacity. Which means its not true suffering just an inconvenience at that point.
>>542415492This image never define what is Evil.
die you fucking christkike jew worshippers
>Evil existsit doesn't. Chart collapses on first step. For this chart to make sense you need Evil with a capital "E". There's no such thing

>>542415492Yes it has, and pic related is the answer.

>>542417533God respects free will so he allows the rapist to rape.But he doesn't respects free will enough to stop the victim from being raped.Why does God allow free will in some cases but doesn't in others?Why does he respect the freewill the rapist more than the victim?
>>542418236>Why does he respect the freewill the rapist more than the victim?Because god needs more children.
>>542418236No you fucking retard. Is your IQ two digit?
>>542417533What makes free will good, then, if it causes so much evil? Wouldn't it be better if God controlled everything directly?

>>542418929I can explain it to you (already did with the image), but I can't understand it for you. Sucks to be dumb, anon, sorry.
>>542415492Gnostics came to the conclusion that god is not all-powerful, not all-knowing, and definitely malevolent.It's because he constantly has to explain that he's the greatest and glaze himself.
>>542415492stating 'Evil Exists" is an inherent appeal to the divine, thus an acknowledgement of divine command.
>>542415629holy shit the christcucks are so fucking retarded they created an entire elaborate infographic meme just to demonstrate that they still, in fact, have no answer and must resort to flailing, childish insults and tantrums to this basic questionlollmao
>>542419012>idiotic word-salad blaming you for being evil in a universe where an all-powerful God created everythingstill not an answerwhy can christtards not even into the most basic logic?
>>542419057Yet freewill is violated everyday.Does not seem like god cares about freewill at all.So op image still stands.
>>542415492This entire flowchart can be invalidated by the fact that eternal heaven awaits the innocent. So what does it matter what they spend several decades in misery (which most dont anyways)? I'm not even religious but it's clear that they believe we're all God's creation for him to admire and observe in all its facets, and there's eternal paradise afterwards.

>>542419432Wrong again, it does not say that. both of you: >>542419333simply resorted to straw-men as you cling to your imaginary and unsupportable belief that our consciousness could occur without an underlying unifier.
>>542415492Is it that much of a paradox, could easily be explained.>its a test for humans to overcome>the process of overcoming evil can only be done through lived experience, God removing evil by himself would defeat the purposeor >God is the natural state of the cosmos. He is beyond mortal comprehension of "good" or "evil" he is God. Good is just to live in his image as much as you can, evil is the opposite.Or could just take Plato's arguments for why injustice is naturally less preferable than justice. If God made it so, he created a natural incentive system to prefer justice.
>>542415492The entire framework collapses under one simple want:love from those who have free willIt also assumes a god's timescale is the same as ours, bound by our rules.>kek
>>542419384What if I told you we have to get past Yhwh to get to that kingdom, and that he REALLY doesnt want us there - not because we are sinful, but because we are evidence of his own sins.His most dedicated flock he is planning to keep in a new matrix, but the rest of us are a major liability for him.
>>542419724>it's a testno. it's not a test. see: >>542419012and >>542419472>it's a necessary aspect of Unity that it must include Disunity, however Disunity cannot exist in a state of Unity. >Thus wholeness requires, in part, separation.
>>542419333for someone to love you, there needs to be the option for someone to not love you as a contrast if everyone loved you by default, being loved wouldn't feel like anything because there is nothing to compare it to God wanted to experience being loved so he had to create humans with the ability to chose him out of their free will and in order for them to use that free will to chose him, he had to create something that is not him, which is why evil exists >inb4 what an evil God to create evil just so he can experience being loved out of free will sure, maybe, but what you gon do bout it? seethe and throw a tantrum and chose eternal damnation because you don't like the reality of the setup you have been created for? maybe you need to develop some compassion for God, imagine there being nothing that exists but yourself, the loneliness of that must be soul crushing, especially if suspended in spaceless eternity we can keep him a little company and say a little prayer every now and then

>>542419948Of course there is. Law exists above."He" isnt the creator of the cosmos, that's preposterous for any entity to claim and requires extraordinary proof beyond simple terraforming/geo-engineering skill. That just places him (or more likely them) at a reasonably high level of power and knowledge we should respect and fear. He isnt alone out there by any means though. > there is no blamebut blame was placed, wasnt it? on Satan, on Earth, on Free Will, on "the humans that turned to evil"Guess what? We were framed. And now the truth has been made known. War in heaven.
>>542420313>but blame was placed, wasnt it?by idiots that think it's a bad thing and they feel victimized by and this need someone to blame and direct their revenge fantasies on just because someone can't keep their ego in check doesn't mean god made a mistake, it means that person needs to work on their pride
>>542420431vengeance? No.Justice? Yes.
>>542416117Actually the issue is your epistemic scope and you’re projection of what God is capable of. Epicurean assumes that everything temporally presented to an observer is known in absolute. If you read Job, someone who is being tortured by satan directly, God points out that your finite scope doesn’t dictate what God ultimate is, God does, and given the context, God didn’t need to do anything because God was already in control. Science requires faith to use, the entire point is that man is a derivative finite creature, epicurean assumes absolutes are compelled to behave a certain way relative to his finite understanding of the context, which is blatantly false. General relativity exposes the impossibility of knowing where you are in the universe rather than a distance between two objects, Godels theorem proves a formula cannot be limited and yet able to summarize the whole without unfinished principles from your perspective. This is a well established cross-domain cross-study invariant that Decarte and Kant completely take as variant and optional. Kant literally tells you in his observation that there is something wrong with not being able to judge reality totally while being in it, yet you would need to be outside reality in order to judge God properly, because you don’t have the scope to make that assessment and your merely projecting your blatant hatred of him through a needlessly elaborate methodology.
>>542420616same thing, both symptoms of pride justice is God's, he will give everyone what they deserve, it's not on you to try and play God by carrying out judgement
>>542420313you're attempting to argue a different mechanic than I am, by twisted assertion, and then demanding that I produce proof of /your/ doubly-inverted claim.I have already provided proof of MY claim, through the Principle of Idempotence.>"He" isn't the creator ofI didn't say he was.

>>542419724>>542419882God is ALL.God is the only thing capable of being ALLIf anything else exists other than God, they are less then ALL.The difference between ALL and anything else gets assigned names based on perspective and consequences.Evil seeks to maximize the difference between ALL and everything else.Good seeks to minimize the difference between ALL and everything else.God/ALL cannot be less than ALL and will therefore never exhibit the trait of being evil or good. God/ALL is above that classification.>cmon guys
In some versions of the Bible God says he creates evil:https://biblehub.com/isaiah/45-7.htmMaybe he's bored idk, maybe the way to see it is that we should forgive him so he can forgive us for the bullshit we do to Simcity NPCs or the microflora in our stomach.
>>542416117your mistake is to assume that creating evil and being all good are mutually exclusive exclusive because your comfort and pleasure addicted self can't fathom the idea that creating evil is a good thing
>>542420733they need to unless they want to go to hell, which is their free choice
>>542416117On the contrary: in order FOR a god to be all powerful, all knowing, and all good, it MUST also include evil; it cannot omit it.see: >>542419882
>>542415629Based. This cute little chart messes up on the third block>does God want to prevent evilThats unknown, we have a hard time defining evil, let alone trying to figure out what God wants to do with it. Imagine an ant trying to think about why OP fucks his hand, to the ant its totally unknown why OP does this. Could you imagine the ant trying to figure out something like that?Your chart falls apart on the third one where you try to figure out God's 'wants'. Thus is totally impossible to understand fully and you'd only be able to take a guess at it. What is clear is that the author of this has a very juvenile understanding of 'evil' and assumes everything is either good or evil. Many things that are thought to be good are evil and many things thought to be evil are good. What you call good is evil to someone else. Do you really think youre capable of understanding something thats truly all powerful? No, you try and apply your own morality to something that it doesnt work with
>>542415492>yet to be answeredroflThat retarded meme has a circular loop so it's is not logically valid. It also relies on a premise God "needs" something which is false.Debunked>>542417245>you can't explain how what He's doing is moralWrong. He allows free will. Just because you're too retarded to understand that does not mean its immoral
also, God did create a reality where no evil existed, there was only one rule, which was to use free will to chose him by staying faithful to his guidance and to not eat from the apple of the tree of knowledge but ofc prideful humans just HAD to know and chose the snake over God and then they have the audacity to be mad at God for being this weak, ungrateful and unloving they had everything and no suffering but that still wasn't enough for their gluttonous asses humans deserve all the suffering for their unlimited entitlement
>>542420847
>>542416601Thats stupid, we would just invent a new metric to argue about.
>>542420689> justice is God's and he will give everyone what they deserveHmm, that sure sounds like pride - a father's pride no less, for one being to think he alone not only knows, but can dictate what's ultimately best for his creationsabsolute hubris. Yes, even gods are capable of that. And sin.Did the Greeks teach you nothing? Do you have any idea how many creatures we've had gallavanting about the planet (not to mention men pretending to be said creatures) over the millennia claiming to have created us and therefore own us - only to burn all of what we are to the ground and reduce us to foodslaves?Not this time. We're getting the fuck up off the ground. There's pride and wrath, and then there's confidence and righteous indignation.Good luck.

>>542420733> I win because I say so.Believe what you wanna believe, jackjust dont be surprised - you've been warnedget on the ships if ya wanna
>>542418236Yes. What dont you understand about free will? If God saved everyone from everytbing all the time, we would stagnat and rely on him for everything. How many parents want their children to be fully reliant on them at alltimes? The crazy ones. Normal mature people want to cultivate them to do things on their own and its how we are designed. Some people are going to chose rape, thats all their is to it and its very unfortunate to the victim. Someone raping someone else isnt a lose of the same free will that you assign to human morality. You guys have the most kindergarten questions for this shit.
>>542421300nobody knows their creation the way the creator does and as the creator, he does hold all authority but go ahead, I'm sure he's smirking at your little prideful detour in arrogance and thinking you know better then he who knitted you in your mother's womb and knew you before he formed youhopefully you find your way back home before he returns
>>542419341How is free will violated everyday? I have never witnessed God intervening and telling me I can not do something. I do not know of a single recorded instance of this happening
>>542421447he did commit a sin, the original sinbesides, God is merciful and just, he doesn't send anyone to hell without good reason, he loves all his children and doesn't want to be separated from any of them if they don't give him a reason for that by choosing the devil over him
>>542421447you replied to me incorrectly; i said nothing about your question.
We say God is good because God has declared Himself to be good, which is right and proper. He is Mighty and we are weak. All things in this universe, including the concept of good, flow out from God. Murder and theft are not evil "just because". Kindness and honesty are not good "just because". Nothing in this universe is "just because". Everything is because of God. Things that God has declared to be right or wrong are right or wrong because God declared them to be so, and for no other reason.
>>542421447No. Ask a real question and not brainlet tier elementary shit
>>542421448Also not what I said. look up the Principle of Idempotence.None of you is going to win this argument with straw men.
>>542420733Also, the real "God" is a joke, and let me tell you why that's a good thing.realize that the Everything, the grand entity that is this entire universe and everything in it, is NOT yhwh. Hell, it isnt even Barbello. Thats supposed to be how belief in God works, is that ANY single entity telling you what to do or that they own you - no matter how big or how powerful, you can just tell them to fuck off.Yhwh is NOT everything. He too, like us, is a fragment. There are several layers of governance above him, it turns out. Nobody can "talk" to the cosmos, but yet all of us can
>>542421548anon thinks free will means you chose what happens to you, he doesn't understand that it means you chose how to think and act based on what's happening to you, so he thinks free will is violated when something happens to you that you don't want to happen to you
>>542421447Also, your picture is right. Someone thats stupid gets it good. Someone who is smart gets it good. A dumbass midwit like you THINKS hes smart enough to understand these things, but he doesnt. You should follow the advice of your picture because youve demonstrated that you have no idea about any of this stuff
>>542415492God isn't "testing" us, he does know us past and future. We are the ones limited in that regard, not him, and our lives ARE his knowing of us. If he were to intetvene, we would not be that which chose the thing he intervened in which would be not known. He may know he intervenes because he intervenes, but when he does there is nothing else to know.He knows who farted. He knows it was me.
>>542421836stop eating slop then
>>542415492yeah god is just an evil motherfucker and christianity is basically just the religious equivalent of the temporarily embarrassed millionaire syndrome but replace money with heaven
>>542421768Exactly, thats why hes saying someone's freewill is violated when they get raped. He has no idea what the fuck any of this means. Midwits are dangerous and need to be culled. They are just smart enough to understand that they arent stupid, which is bad news for everyone
>>542421764Who do you think you're talking to?
>>542421836Qingu thought he did too when he convinced Marduk to blow up Tiamatnow we have no Mardukno Ishtarno Lunanothing but a greatly diminished "Earth" and forsaken dead spheres "Mars", "Venus", etc...
>>542421894>by Ruben
>>542421959you know damn good and well who you're talking to:)
>>542421461Actually God prefers you be reliant on him and there’s literally nothing wrong with that. The assumption for epicurean is that limited information is reliable enough to judge absolutes. Faith is universally required of every single created sentience. Faith is literally all God is asking for. If God exists, the issue is your orientation with him, which means 100% of the issues are on your side and are entirely projections. So for people in denial they’ll use themselves as the reference to judge God when it’s blatantly an incomplete assessment of the context. God would be the only one capable of knowing everything about you from the moment you are born to death. No one else has that vantage point. Job tried to shittest God by implying if he didn’t stop satan from fucking his shit up God was fake n gay, God’s reply was basically “that retard is larping as if torturing you makes me anything less than I am, I made everything and are fully aware of what is happening to you, you do not understand why this is happening just trust me bro.”It’s a practical question, why would God do through the trouble of creating shit to play out temporally when he can literally know what will happen before hand and decide simply not to do it? Epicurean assumes God has no free will and also must answer man on man’s terms, despite God being fully capable of existing outside of the apparent context, shattering egos and making satan seethe regardless.
>>542421674>he did commit a sin, the original sinSure, so if a baby die without being baptized he will go to hell, but a serial killer will go to heaven if he accept christ as our kang. >>542421799>Dont ask questions, just believe that our God is a jew who died in middle east 2000 years ago.

There's only stupidity.

>>542422082you want to destroy evil?there's only one way to do thatthats to prove it doesnt exist.to render the concept obsolete.
>>542415492>waaaa I didn't have a dadSingle mother morality has yet to see its lack.
>>542422075>if a baby die without being baptized he will go to hellnot necessarily and not likely but we can't fully rule that out because it's not clearly stated in scripture, so we have to accept that it's a possibility and that there's simply things we can't ever know and understand with our limited human capacity and have to give up to him to handle and know, yes >but a serial killer will go to heaven if he accept christ as our kang.no, accepting Christ as king is not enough, satan himself accepts Christ as king because he knows full well he stands no chance against him and he surely won't ever go to heaven the defining factor isn't to acknowledge God is king, it's to genuinely repent for your sins and not because you're scared of the punishment you'll receive for it but because you realize how much grief you've caused God by disobeying him and because you finally come to the realization that all you ever wanted is to praise him, glorify him, surrender to his will and put a smile on his face when he looks down on you and what you've decided to make with your time on earth and with the free will he's given you
>>542415492It was answered like a thousand years ago, it's well poisoning (a formal logical fallacy) that assumes a human perspective where everything you find undesirable to be bad, which is ridiculous because it's subjective. A child thinks their parent is evil when they have their toy taken away. It's essentially a malformed question that is circular because it just confims itself instead of staying logically consistent. You suffer when you exercise, does that make exercise evil? No.The epicurean trilemma is question-begging which is a formal logical fallacy.

>>542421038>and assumes everything is either good or evil. Many things that are thought to be good are evil and many things thought to be evil are good. What you call good is evil to someone else.There is no reason to hurt anyone. It's pretty simple:If an action you are about to do will result in somebody, you or anyone else, in pain or suffering, then it is not the right action to do. Another, better action, such that it does not result in someone, you or anyone else, in pain or suffering, should be found and done. Only such actions should be done. No action that results in somebody in pain or suffering, can be called good. Only such actions that don't result in pain and suffering can be called good, and only beings that do such actions can be called good.
>>542422075No, people who are capable of asking question should ask questions. People like you, ones who dont understand this, shouldn't because its dangerous for you.

>>542415492I had a conversation with priest friend about this but I feel like I couldn’t find a way to explain in the words he would understand, or maybe the opposite is trueIt is such an easy thing to understand though. An educated christian would always explain it away with free will, but that still doesn’t make sense as an omnipotent deity could create a universe with free will where all humans decide to not sin, yet he didn’t. Really the crux is the original sin. Christianity has to carry the baggage of bronze age canaaneans who got assblasted by babylonians and wrote the fanfic about how their god is the bestest and everyone else is actually a sinner and will bow down to his chosen peoples, I mean to him, so it must always make a case for these retarded claims, even if it makes itself a bit retarded

>>542422804>>542422797They've already been answered, and no, those questions get asked all the time as a "gotcha" type question. Both of which are stupid>baby goes to hell>youre a bad person>baby goes to heaven instead with out being baptized>uh oh loophole!See how stupid that is? Now, why dont you come up with YOUR OWN question and not some Facebook tier amazing atheist shit. Im asking YOU to personally come up with your own unique moral question
>>542422708it's not free will if you're created with only the option to chose the option he wants you to choose it's the difference between a cat climbing on your lap voluntarily vs grabbing her and forcing her to stay on your lap vs keeping her on your lap since her first breath and never letting her experience anything else so she gets conditioned to live on your lap even though technically she could get up and jump off vs cutting off the cats legs so she has no choice but to sit on your lap only one of those options is actually morally correct, which is why it's what God chose for us
>>542422834Great, and now you guys are using other peoples garbage insults. Thanks anon, I see that about 49 times a day here
For everyone confused as fuck, YOU ARE NOT JUDGED ONCE.Every time. Every day. Every self inflicted harm.There is no punishment waiting for you, because you are already living it by your own action.
>>542422910they keep getting asked because you don't answer them and sperg out
>>542422794That has more sense than trinity.
Can anyone explain why did God create Adam and Eve in such a way that they failed to make the right choice, but not in such a way that they wouldn't have failed to make the right choice? Why is one ok but the other one not ok? Were they created worse than they could have been on purpose?
>>542415650Not wanting to prevent bad things is good? Not stopping bad things when you are capable of doing so is good?
>>542422987they get answered, you just don't understand or don't like the answer and in your infinite arrogance, not being told what you want to hear means it didn't get answered this is what main character syndrome does to a mf
>>542422987I already answered them>>542422537See? Now where is your question at? I also answered the midwit rape question
>>542422797It literally does not for the reasons I stated. It's not logically consistent outside itself and fails when you point out the false premise. Learn basic philosophy and fallacies, you don't need to believe in God to educate yourself
>>542423053they don't get answered, and you sperg out because you can't
>>542415629Just want you to know that your posts the past couple of years on here have been the final straw to drive me away from Christianity.
>>542415492> Can God Prevent Evil -> Does God know about all evil? -> Does God want to prevent evil? -> No? God is evilIllogical conclusion.
>>542423015that exact question has been answered multiple times itt alone, just scroll up a bit
>>542422910>Facebook tier amazing atheist shit.If even the faceberg midwits are capable of debunking christcuckery...
>>542423015he's just an assholedon't say or even think that though, you have to lick his ass or you'll burn in hell forever
>>542422912You are not listening. An omnipotent all knowing deity could have created a world where there is free will and yet nobody sins of their own free will. He could have created such a world, without hard determinism and restrictions, as he is omnipotent, yet he didn’t
>>542421964One either respects that which created it as superior or not. It is that simple. What you see of creation ought not to be presumed to be created FOR you to any degree. If a degree of that is had, it is a gift. To judge the whole of creation as if it is meant for you and your lens is a folly, for that but for more reasons than that alone. If the question being asked is whether or not God is Good or Evil, where typically the Christian argues good and the non-believer or the satanist argues evil, my answer is that is that there simply is no such thing in the whole case. There is only power. That is the forbidden knoweledge that lost man its place in the garden. God desires us to see him as good, there is then synergy for our purpose abd we may be satiafied with our place beneath him permanently. If we see him as evil, we cannot be those things. We will not be content beneath him, nor serve our purpose. It is utself the gate to hell abd eterbal torment.Salvation is to be convinced again that God is good, as that is what he desires to see in us, that we see him as truly good in our standards. That is what in our lens he is concerned with. To see him as evil is the path of the opposer. Even to question abd doubt. By one's own hand one could not find peace in that state.To see beyond the problem like this, I have no idea what that means for a person's soul, to tell you the truth.
>>542422797Wanna piss off some masons?Say this phrase> Jesus Is LuciferSee, some of us got together and did Yhwh a solid. There was a nasty plan put together to render him mortal and kill him. Yes, I (channeling the red guy rn) was involved in making that plan with him. It was... misguided. Having been through this loop however many times we have has taught me that. I see now the correct course of action wasnt to take matters into my own hands, but to cry out. And that's what I've done. So now we have to stop> the ones who are still going by the original plan> the mouths coming at us> the ones who have no fucking idea whats happeningfun times, butwegotthis
>>542423087they do get answered, you simply don't like being told that you having to endure unpleasant things is a good thing and not a design flaw because you can't fathom that not getting your way could ever be a good thingthis is part of why it exists, to give you an opportunity to learn to humble yourself eventually
>>542422912>it's not free will if you're created with only the option to chose the option he wants you to chooseevil isn't a choice God provides. You have a choice to believe, which reorients you with God. The problem is your frame of reference, you sin because you idolize yourself and you have a limited derivative ontology. You're basically out of sync with the truth, and this is why morality is often viewed in a dialectic. It isn't multi-polar, God is supposed to be the frame of reference, otherwise conflict occurs. You can find out alot of what people specifically believe about themselves, but listening to what people say they would do if they were God, because their teleology tells you straight up what they are using for a reference, and how that directly effects their actions as a result. There are several anons in this thread that have confused expression with moral ontology, just because you can do things, doesn't mean its inherently with in your capacity to make things morally absolute, you can only emote, you do not have reality authoring tools.
>>542422997and they said newfags cant triforce
>>542423119I answered your questions already now give me a real question. Because I dont think youre capable
>>542415629fuck off
>>542423085You said>>542422338>that assumes a human perspective where everything you find undesirable to be bad>Human perspective>Thinking God is your father.You are the ones who make a human perspective by comparing yourself with God. If you are His son, then you are similar to God.And remember, YOU WORKSHIP A JEW
>>542423168Free will precipitates the possibility of a creature using themselves as a moral absolute reference anon. Thats precisely why satan mistakes his created attributes and actions as his definition and purpose rather than looking to God. He's worshipping himself, which is why he expresses evil. God created everything Good. Nothing is ontologically evil. Morality is an orientation issue.
>>542422912>it's not free will if you're created with only the option to chose the option he wants you to chooseThis shit againIf you go into an ice cream shop and they don't have shit flavored ice cream do you complain there are no choices?And why don't you have a Shift key you nigger? Fuck off
>>542423204they don't get answered and never willbecause there's really only one answer and it goes against your programming
>>542422797Nothing I said was "christkekish" in any way whatsoever. >>542422024You misunderstood too.
>>542423381Well, first of all “evil” is simply an absence of God/his presence/Holy Spirit. Second of all that doesn’t really rebuke what I said
>>542422705Holy shit, youre stupid
>>542423168it's not free will if you create someone with only the desire to chose the option you want them to chose did you know that little kids' attention span is so short that you can greatly influence what they chose out of different options by stating what you want them to chose last? so instead of saying, "do you want potatoes, pasta or bread", you can say "do you want pasta, bread or potatoes" if you still have left over potatoes in the fridge that need to be used upthat's called manipulation and not respecting the person's free will because you're using tricks to influence their choices and God doesn't want to trick us into loving him, he wants us to love him because it's truly deeply what we consciously chose every day with our free will and full knowledge of all the choices we havenot creating us as mindless minions that adore him by default is an act of love from him to us because he doesn't want us on a leash, he wants us to come to him out of love that IS the good option, creating us in a way where we'd always chose our free will to chose him by default would have been the evil option because it's disrespectful because it would turn us into nothing but objects, toys for his entertainment so out of all the options, he did chose the most respectful, loving and kind one because he loves us that much that he didn't want to abuse his power to turn us into mindless creatures that worship him by default he could have, but he chose not to because that's how good he is to us
>>542422082Avoiding the facts and pretending you won an argument with a total moron is typical of a religious person.>>542422033"With enough baseless assumptions, you too can have an entirely nonsensical reality!">>542422910None have been answered. The "gotchas" are contradictions which undermine the nonsensical belief system.Here is a contradiction I came up with: if God judges people based on their morality, then isn't it in the believer's best interest to limit their power as that measurably impacts one's capacity to empathize with others? Doesn't this provable fact contradict the Calvinist interpretation of scripture purporting that prosperity brings one closer to God?
>>542415492>This image has yet to be answeredThe jews. It's all jewish nonsense. But let's start at the beginning. In human prehistory, there was a point in time where there were no gods at all, just spirits. Spirits are sort of like gods, but without the status. They're incorporeal (but localized), invisible when they want to be, but intelligent. Sometimes they know things humans don't know. So how did they become gods? When people started to worship them. The process itself is called apotheosis. But even after apotheosis occurred, they weren't gods in the way the jews pretend their jew god is. Unique among all religions and pantheons, the jews decided that their god created the entire universe. Sure, this god or that goddesses created people, or it created the world... but theirs created everything.Was that enough? Turns out it wasn't, because just a few centuries later they jews are slithering around Greece and start talking with the neoplatonist philosophers. Those are the guys who thought that because squares exist, there was this ultimate, spiritual square out floating around in the heaves, the other squares just being its "shadow". Platonic ideals, you see? But they were positing that there must be such a god. Omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, omnibenevolent. The jews heard this and immediately decided to upgrade their god. Of course he was, because being the jew god that meant he was more than any other so-called god.Well, even that's not enough. Almost as soon as they decide he's omnipotent, he must be the only god ever. If there are gods and spirits (probably not, but I'll reserve judgement), even then none of this horseshit is true. It's gibberish. I don't give a shit about omnipotent gods. Show me the god that's one of the good guys. Heroic. That's the side I want to be on. Even if he can't vanquish evil utterly. Your picrel is stupid and you're a retarded faggot OP. Plus, any "why" question can always be answered "the jews".
>>542423557Prove me wrong
>>542416117It doesn't prove shit and is obviously retarded, you just think it makes sense because you are also retarded. You just hate a strawman of the Christian God as a proxy for your unresolved childhood anger at your parents for making you follow rules.
>>542423649You aren't judged on morality alone.
>>542415629>>542415787brown
>>542416601>Suffering is unnecessary to have free will.God tried that. Humans fucked it all up by using their free will to immediately break the only rule and doing the one thing they weren't supposed to do. It's literally the first story in the Bible.
>>542423597You do know that to any argument you come up with I can just reply “can he create the world that’s also (your argument) but humans never chose evil?” right?
>>542415492This all assumes God is good when he made us in his image. How many 100% good people do you know
>>542423904Rope?
>>542420199No one would have bothered to build a Children's Hospital if cancer didn't exist. The whole point and purpose of everything is for us to strive to overcome these things and become more like God, not for humans to lounge around fucking off in some hedonistic pleasuredome where nothing bad ever happens.
>>542415492yes it has. you're just a faggot. don't cast pearls before swine, anons. let this one burn. save your energy for the humble.
>>542415492>My action should have zero consequences else God is evilLol, LMAO even
>>542423597God does not need to test us, or God is not omnipotent.If failing the test is bad, then God created evil by making the test and that undermines his goodness.>>542423658You have the important parts of the historical record down, but you resist the argument for no reason. Stand down, soldier.>>542423121If Mummy's existence is contingent on having power, knowledge, and being good -- and you end the circular part on Mummy's lack of power, then you have a pretty good analogy for the Epicurean Paradox. An all-powerful God cannot be good because suffering exists.
>>542424105sure, you canI just explained that he could have done that but he chose not to because it would have been evil to do thatbut you're clearly not going to accept that and insist that the way God did create us is the evil option we could go round and round ad infinitum in the end, it's my believe that God did everything he did out of love vs your belief that he created evil just to hurt usneither will be convinced by the other because we're both just humans trying to understand something we'll never know for sure with our little mindsis there anything I even could say that would make you change your mind?maybe you need to first experience God's infinite love for yourself before you can consider that he has no malice in him and thus you can just fully trust that whatever he chose to do or not do was from a place of deep love, even if I don't fully grasp it
>>542424500it's not a test, it's an option it's the difference between sitting next to a wild animal and let it come to you when it's ready and trusts you enough vs setting a trap to capture it he's not mad if you don't come to him, but he's sad if you run away because he knows what the alternative is and he wants you to spend eternity where there's no tears anymore - which is by his side
>>542424673>God's infinite love for yourself before you can consider that he has no malice in himDoesn't Jesus brag that most humans will burn in Hell for an infinite amount of time?Torture by fire for trillions and trillions of years is just sadism and malice.
>>542424797No he doesnt
>>542415492because its silly, the assumptions and axioms are incorrect
>>542424797no?
>>542424105You have confused ‘can’ with ‘must.’ I'm sure a brain as capable as yours sees the issue.
>>542423119>salvation is from the jewsGod save us from the Jews, Amen
>>542415492God can prevent evil through good people you inbred kike.
>>542424796>It's not a test, it's an optionThat is a distinction without a difference, and making up cute metaphors doesn't change that fact. If it is bad to "choose" otherwise, then its possibility undermines God's goodness. If it must be so, then God is not omnipotent.No part of this argument proves that God doesn't exist, mind you -- it just proves that God is not good.
>>542425050>>542425082You should read the Bible sometime.Matthew 7:13-14 Statistically most humans will be tortured by fire for an infinite amount of time. Trillions and trillions of years of torture mostly because they were raised in the wrong religion.
>>542415492If you had a kid, would you want him to choose good above evil, or would you want him to be able to choose only good which robs him of his free will?
>>542416117> In other words the Christian God isn't real.Um… anon… the god in the Bible is explicitly not omnipotent, omniscient, nor omnibenevolentThis is why I always say atheists are just mad at their imaginary friend.
>>542415629wew lad
>>542415492Everything has duality, good cannot exist without evil, love cannot exist without hate.When you finally understand that all things hs e an opposite and we cannot escape it, you can stop asking childishly why God does not eliminate evil.We’re not in Heaven, thus perfection and bending of the laws of duality cannot exist.
>>542425280What are the wages of sin?
>>542415629
>>542415492God loves us so much that he would allow evil to exist so that we can overcome it. Without it we wouldn't be able to derive meaning from our existence. He loves us enough to let us suffer rather than be destroyed. That and we chose to have free will and in respecting that decision he keeps direct involvement to a minimum.
>>542415492## I. The Resolution of the Paradox: Original Perfection and the Nature of EvilThe skeptical argument suggests that an all-powerful God could have created a universe with free will but without the capacity for evil. This paradox is built on a misunderstanding of both Christian history and the definition of goodness.## 1. Historical Fact: A Sinless, Free Universe ExistedTraditional Christian theology (the Augustinian tradition) establishes that God did create a perfect universe with genuine free will and zero evil.* The Cosmic Fall: Satan was created with absolute free will and chose to turn away from God, introducing evil into the cosmos.* The Earthly Fall: Adam and Eve, operating with free will in a perfect Garden, followed Satan’s example, introducing sin and physical brokenness to Earth.* Therefore, the coexistence of free will and a sinless reality is not a logical impossibility—it is the historical starting point of creation.## 2. The Definition of Goodness and the Absurdity of Alternative GoodsSkeptics ask why God did not simply provide alternative "good" options to choose from, rather than allowing a choice for evil. This request is a logical absurdity.* God as the Ultimate Standard: God is the sole author of creation and the absolute definition of goodness. Goodness is not an independent concept; it is alignment with God’s character.* Evil as Privation: Evil is not a physical substance created by God. It is a "privation"—a lack, shadow, or corruption of good.* The Inevitable Binary: Because God is the only source of ultimate good, any choice to turn away from God is, by definition, a turn toward a lack of good (evil). To demand a choice away from God that is still "good" is like demanding a four-sided triangle. It is a meaningless combination of words.
>>542425241and even if so, God doesn't owe you being good you'd have to play by his rules even if he wasn't good because there's no other option than to operate within the options he has createdyou'd have to come to terms with the terms and conditions even if he wasn't good, so wether or not he is is actually a futile thing to think about
>>542425280stating facts isn't bragging about something and taking sadistic pleasure in the suffering of others
>>542415629OP BTFO'd into oblivion
>>542415492This doesn't follow. Where does it say that god can see the future and predict every possible action? Also, that's not the only possible reason to create evil. It could be in order to assist humans with their spiritual development.
>>542425694>taking sadistic pleasure in the suffering of othersTorture by fire is pure sadism.
>>542419432>>>you've been a very bad boy and you need to be punished>>slavefancy yourself perfect, huh?
>>542415775lmao... OP got btfo and seethed impotently before running away to seethe some more.
>>542425568This would mean that God is evil for creating suffering. That's a fine resolution if you plan to justify it, but you have conceded the argument.>>542425624>Traditional Christian theology (the Augustinian tradition) establishes that God did create a perfect universe with genuine free will and zero evil.Stating it does not make it true.>Satan was created... introducing evil into the cosmosGod created evil, so God is evil. This concedes the argument. Congratulations, ChatGPT
>>542425770Also basically every single religion I know of involves god or the gods testing humans.It’s just brainlet stuff.
>>542415492Human development is recursive, following the logic of this flow only gets to a point before it crumbles logically. Testing in this framework is constant, what the logic fails to acknowledge is development. If God wanted to create something independent from himself, how would he do it? What would that process truly be like? If he just creates the end result then it is dependant on him but if he creates the beginning of something with freewill, it will eventually deviate from his will. It makes sense to me.

>>542415492Aquinas said something like evil doesn't exist, just a lack of good. We're operating on a lower degraded plane that is lacking goodness
>>542426118>low iq baboons mad someone can disprove them in seconds with efficient use of a useful tool>thinks using voice to text to structure/format argument means you "copy pasted without reading"If you can't address the substance of an argument you concede defeat.

does god ban circumcision?no? then he is not good>>542415629false religion, jesus isn't godmary lied
>>542425917yes, being apart from God is painful but you don't have to ever be apart from him, all you have to do is use your free will to chose him every day if you can't even do this one simple thing, you've asked for itstill doesn't make it sadistic, sadism implies taking pleasure in the suffering of others and God takes no pleasure in you choosing hell over him just because of your endless need for defiance just how a father can take no pleasure in punishing his son but if the son uses his free will to bully someone, it's the fathers responsibility to bring him back to the right path by making it unpleasant enough to walk the path of destruction for the son to not get too comfortable there and start making it a habit, or worse an identity, to be cruel to others doesn't mean the dad enjoys having to carry out the consequences but it's necessary if he loves his son and loves him enough to not just watch him give his soul over to evil just to feel powerful by being defiant to what would be good out of sheer pride
>>542426118Everyone knows you don't actually talk with people you reply to, you are talking to the lurkers>>542426195I respect that you are retarded and I refuse to mock disabled people out of principle.
It's simple. There is no good and evil; those are human moral value categories. God has none of those.Adam and Eve lived in perfect Eden/harmony until they ate from the "tree of knowledge", which means they took for themselves the prerogative to decide what is good and evil. They were thrown out, which they saw as punishment - a previously unknown concept.
>>542426403>yes, being apart from God is painfulthe lake of fire used to inflict pain is what's painful>just how a father can take no pleasure in punishing his soneternally punishing your son because he guessed the wrong religion is sadistic.

>>542426673God is free to make "not choosing God" as unpleasant as he wishes because there is not a single reason to chose that option over him, so if someone is so prideful that they actually chose hell over him just to throw a tantrum, that's on them >guessedthere is no guessing, pic rel if a religion tells you what your worldly desires want to hear, it's not godly think tele-evangelism that tells you you can become filthy wealthy (if you just donate enough to the pastor first ofc) or islam that tells you you can absolutely be a holy man and rape your slaves
>>542423904Noice
>>542426650This is a beautiful interpretation that I can appreciate despite not being religious.

>>542426349Anon, your response had nothing to do with the OP post, that’s how I knew you didn’t read it. Now you are seething and schizzing out.Maybe it’s time to sign off for the day.
>>542423649You are literally incapable of possessing a total scope of reality and therefore cannot possibly think you can judge God because you’re derivative, causal reasoning and ontology convey this teleologically. You are never going to get absolute proof of God when you are misoriented. You’re starting position is God isn’t real. Why the fuck then retard, would you assume proof exists to the opposite of what is assumed when it doesn’t establish whether or not it’s actually true. Which means you’re basically hitting ctrl-A on everything before you even comprehend whether or not evidence even categorically applies. The parable of the talents addresses this. Your projection of God doesn’t exist, God exists. That is not biased, that’s not anti scientific, that’s not irrational, that is the bare minimum context required for you to even have an intelligible context. If everyone believes themselves to be God, I can see why evil and conflict exist, because every single person is discordantly larping while fucking each other and themselves over. Everything else is down stream from this. Everything from religion to government, ideology and philosophy. All of it is fucking bent towards the self, and that’s why dialectics are a thing. Both sides have the same underlying posture, and theatrically kill each other over effectively nothing but the sake of the larp itself.
>>542427250Why would God waste His children's lives evangelizing to people that would never accept Him and mass exterminate hundreds of thousands for believing His name like they did in Japan? God orders entire tribes to be exterminated in the Old Testament. At one point, He eradicated 99.99% of humanity, but you're shocked He doesn't send people to every single country today? You're a midwit.

>>542427757>"I've never read the Bible at all" the postThe beings who chose evil with their free will were banished from heaven lmao you are a pseudo-intellectual moron
>>542427250that's why the bible tells us to not take it upon us to judge anyone else and that it's God's place to look into their heart because it's not on us to decide who does and doesn't get to heaven but that isn't a loophole for people that HAVE access to knowing him and praising him in the way he told us to in the bible to think it's optional to do that because someone that has never heard the name of Jesus might ultimately enter heaven too God knew that if he told us it doesn't matter, we'd take that as yet another invitation to figure out what the bare minimum is we have to do to go to heavenit would be blasphemous of me to say nobody gets to heaven that hasn't been baptized by a catholic priest but it would be equally irresponsible of me to say just do whatever you want, it doesn't matter at allwhich applies probably depends on circumstances but since it's not clearly established it's something I simply have to entrust in him, just like the question of unbaptized babies there is a difference between having never heard the gospel and having hears it but having rejected it the catholic church calls this lumen gentium, saying that people who lack that knowledge through no fault of their own can still be saved by God’s gracethe bible established that those who do not possess God’s revealed law can nevertheless follow its demands, which are “written in their hearts.” so iow, our conscience is like a built in gospel, if you follow it, it's as if God has revealed himself to you without you having ever heard his name again, this includes people that have heard the gospel but refused to accept Christ on the basis of "simply being a good person is enough"
>>542419079Yeah, but that's just moving the goalpost, since the real God is still ultimately responsible for the creation of the Demiurge.
>>542427250>God sends a soul toWhich god? Why is everyone so afraid to name these gods, so that reasonable people can at least know which god we're talking about? Why are we so keen on the jewish taboo of never naming these gods? Thor and Ra never had a problem with people naming them. Only the jew god wants to slink around anonymously, able to impersonate other gods. Able to shirk off one identity when he's managed to embarrass himself and adopt another.

>>542427823If God is completely good, the only alternative is not good (evil). Correct. God could have created a world with free will and no evil, but then He actually would not be all good. He would have to create multiple good choices, meaning multiple Gods. Then, His goodness would be divided. He chose not to do that, because it is not His will nor His character. He chose to remain all good rather than partially good, meaning the only thing apart from His Light is darkness, death, and evil.The exact opposite of reality. God would be evil if He created an entire universe of mindless enslaved puppets, because He would be a tyrant. Allowing His creation freedom is what makes Him good. God cannot be good without creating free will. Mindless puppeteering is malevovent. Creating free will is the epitome and definition of benevolence.Completely wrong, uneducated, and illiterate again. The genetic fallacy is a logical error where someone accepts or rejects a claim based entirely on its source or origin rather than its actual content. You try to correct other people regarding concepts you know literally nothing about. Talk about embarrassment. Absolutely pathetic, unlearned, and idiotic.The fact that I use text-to-speech in an AI to format/structure my thoughts does not mean they are "not my own words". It means I am more intelligent than you and you are salty that you can't waste hours of my time manually typing out a response to every idiotic and nonsensical argument you present.Cope, ignorant child.
>>542427986The Bible does not say never to judge anyone else. That is complete nonsense. You have never seriously studied scripture. Please stop.
>>542428373I said to not try to judge wether someone will enter heaven or not because that is between them and God alone. You can absolutely call out people that commit sins.
>>542419079Gnostics are retards who think Jesus is a different God than YAHWEH, despite there being over 300 prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament and Him teaching almost exclusively from the Tanakh (the New Testament quoting the Old Testament 180+ times). You have to be a biblically illiterate idiot to believe in gnosticism. Mentally inconceivably lazy pseudointellectual baseless drivel.
>>542419341You don't know what free will is and have the reading comprehension ability of a wet dish spongue.
