I believe in an evil god. It's the only thing that makes sense. Even completely disregarding any human actions (so you can't use the free will excuse), the creator still chose to create a reality where animals have to kill and eat each other to survive.
>>
>>42039232
an evil god like the demiurge
Or
an evil god which is the supreme
>>
>>42039232
>the creator still chose to create
Or he just wasn't able to do it better.
The Demiurge is not necessarily seen as evil in Gnosticism, just as ignorant and limited in his creativity.
>>
>>42039236
I don't believe there is a supreme god. The universe is eternal. There is a god (little g) who is the ruler of this world/false reality. Humans can also become gods.
>>
>>42039246
do you believe that this god gave us our minds?
>>
>>42039252
No. I think we originally came here from another place, and are currently trapped here.
>>
>>42039254
oh ok then i don't have much to say then, so like gnosticism

If you said yes i would call you reatred and bring up descartes evil demon
>>
>>42039232
existence by an evil god is illogical

Ok first what would be "Evil" in a world view that overarching god is evil, as classical theology understands Evil to be the absence of good as god is the source of "good", so we will just invert it so that good is the absence of evil.
So Evil is the substance and good is just a lack of that substance, so god is evil and goodness is a privation of god.
This god would not create anything, as Being is understood to be an act of good under an theological reasoning, so god in its goodness and his nature would naturally gives being, this also means that this god wouldn't exist. so its literarily an impossibility if we are going to be consistent under theological understanding.
>>
>>42039263
A god which may be "presived" as evil but is just ignorant would make more sense though
like>>42039240
>>
>>42039232
good for you son
>>
God doesn't really need to be evil for death and evil to exist. Human consciousness exists within the entropic state. And thats not accounting for Gods omniscience and omnipotence facilitating all kinds of possible 'meta' elements.
>>
>>42039263
You're fucking retarded.
For God to be good the following criteria has to be met.
1. He is truly good to his sons, thus he permits them to dissgree with goodness and be evil.

And there
>>
>>42039307
>God doesn't really need to be evil for death and evil to exist.

Yeah he does. If he was purely morally good he would create a natural world (again, not even including humans, so you can't cry muh free will) where suffering and anguish don't exist. But he didn't. He specifically chose to condemn trillions of animals to an endless loop of torment stuck maiming and killing each other to survive.

Unless you're a retard who thinks good = whatever God does, in which case I'm not interested in talking to you
>>
>>42039232
Satan rules this world with the permission of god. Read the book, nigga.
>>
>>42039320
>thus he permits them to dissgree with goodness and be evil.
No he doesn't, since supposedly he sends them to Hell. Withholding punishment for something until a later date doesn't mean that thing is "permitted"
>>
>>42039326
Explain how it's not evil of God to permit Satan to rule the world?
>>
>>42039338
No, I mean that I dissgree with abrahamic views. I think goodness not only permits, but allows, concedes and encourages evil because that may bring joy to his child.
If you're an apex being, the least of your concerns is a masochist or a lecherous slut or a sorcerer.

A purely good God would not create a hirarchy. All beings he would create would have the same status and power as he has. It would be a truely egalitarian and democratic universe of God peers, living in immortal perfection.

Okay.
You are sentient, and thus can evaluate things.
Everyone can.

Would you accept, if God gave you nigh-omnipotence and a universe to rule for yourself? So you could show God how it should be done and you can create your perfect world?
>>
>>42039232
I believe that our world is two gods clashing. One an evil inferior god which is grounded in quantity, and the other a noble benevolent god which is grounded in quality. What we experience as life is just the battle of these two sources of knowledge playing out in real time.

If you accept an omnipotent being, good HAS to be defined by said being.
Where else would it come from?
You've got three choices.
Either God defines what is and isnt good.
You want to say YOU are the ultimate definier of them.
Or you are saying there is something above God that defines these values, in which case why wouldnt THAT be God, and not the powerful being under its rule?

With omnipotence (a concept that doesn't make sense anyway) I could have a universe with beings I want, without forcing anyone to anything. They would just be happy, peaceful, virtuous, holy beings because I want it to be. My will would not be forced on them, it would be the reality, so nothing could be outside of my will. That's what omnipotence is.
>but that's not logical
Doesn't matter. An almighty God can do things beyond logic and causality.

There are two people who arent you, who want incompatible results.
Is that another thing that is limited and restricted away in your universe?
What if I am in your universe, and WANT to be in conflict with someone else?
I cant do that?
What do I do, then?
>>
>>42039633
>There are two people who arent you, who want incompatible results.
No they wouldn't. All people would be saints and spiritual masters. They would have no desires, no ego impulses, no craving for anything. They would all be united in spiritual love for each other.
>What if I am in your universe, and WANT to be in conflict with someone else?
You wouldn't be there, as my universe is a place of holy people.

It's just that your conception of it doesnnt allow for people to ever disagree with God.
God's version DOES.
Those souls get to come here.
You and I are here because we wouldnt play along with the saints and pure people.

Apologetics are all about explaining why god is still good even though he does/allows things that are obviously evil. Even a brainwashed person's conscience still tells them when something is wrong so they need copes to reassure them that god is actually still good even when deep down they know he isn't
>>
>>42039684
Holy fucking shit XDDDD

>They are still operating with the assumption that God is good
Not a single fuckinng one does that, all of them reason their way to a good god
You stated that they all give reasons that god is good from pre assumption, i said no and provided multiple arguments and papers against that claim and then like the dumbass you are just regurgitate the same point again XD


Do you even know any of the terms (not papers the Terms) i provided?
Seriously you have no understanding of theology yet you still make such strong theological claims about god, dumbass XD

>>42039716
what enlightened perspective do you have to arrive at to think people getting maimed or killed in natural disasters (directly caused by god) is not evil?

Everyone likes to say in Isaiah 45:7 that "he's not talking about MORAL evil, just calamity!" Well directly causing calamity and hurting people as a result is itself morally evil. If something would be evil if a human did it, it's evil if God does it. Divine command theory is one of the most vile, dangerous things you can believe.

Romans 14:10-12 ESV
[10] Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; [11] for it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” [12] So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.

Matthew 7:3-5 ESV
[3] Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? [4] Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? [5] You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.

not the guy you are responding to, but two thing.

1. So you think Yahweh is real but not eternal (and for the sake of this question i am going to steel man you and assume that you have the crude culture understanding of god and just work form that),
so my question to you is
What do you think he came from, seeing as he is not eternal and your model of the universe is,
additionally what is your reasoning that he is finite

2. >>42039758

>>42039839
Is the universe evil?
That is your true conception of god - the impersonal eternal universe.
You dont seem to believe god is evil, you just dont accept this line of powerful beings as god, despite the label you put on them.
>>
>>42039857
>fancy
Fantasy*
>>
>>42039860
>>Is the universe evil?
The Universe isn't an entity. It is not good or bad itself. There contains both within it.
>>
>>42039868
>It is not good or bad itself. There contains both within it.
People say this of god.
>The Universe isn't an entity.
Yes it is.
You meant to say it isnt a person.
And yes - it would be an IMPERSONAL conception of God.
So a god - impersonal or not - that creates both good and evil is not evil, but neutral.
>>
>>42039784
>isn't he supposed to create?
Well he doesn't, read Genesis again. "The waters" already exist when Yahweh shows up and starts letting there be things. That's Tehom, the pre-cosmic ocean. It was a universal belief in the ancient near east, not only in early Yahwism.
>>
>>42039876
>People say this of god.
Generally people in Abrahamic religions do not. They say he is all good or "omnibenevolent"
>>
>>42039877
NTA but Tehom is obviously outer space.
>>
>>42039880
>Generally people in Abrahamic religions do not.
Yes they do, and the bible says he does as well.
>They say he is all good or "omnibenevolent"
That is their judgement of god, not the fact that he creates good and evil.
And it doesnt really matter what THEY say.
I was asking you.
So a god - impersonal or not - that creates both good and evil is not evil, but neutral.
>>
>>42039877
The vast waters and oceans symbolize chaos and disorder in Jewish thought. This illustrates that God embodies order as He creates harmony from the disarray.

Anyways I'm not Christian so don't assume that
>>
>>42039886
>Yes they do
Then go on /his/ right now and say God is the creator of evil, see what happens.
>>
>>42039894
Why? No. You get your own proof.
And it doesnt really matter what THEY say.
I was asking you.
So a god - impersonal or not - that creates both good and evil is not evil, but neutral.

Nope. Tehom is the prima materia before it's been ordered into forms. That's all Genesis says Yahweh did if you read it closely and know about its cultural context.

God is a force of nature. He isn't bound by man-made concepts like good and evil. He's a lion who kills you because he's hungry and just because he can
>>

I am not OP. I am asking OP why he says he believes God is evil fro creating good and evil, when he believes the universe is neutral even though the universe is the source of good and evil.
>>
>>42039857
Why is infinite regress impossible but somehow God existing forever and never having not existed totally reasonable to you? If everything requires a cause, why is God exempt from that?
>>
>>42039901

I made the claim that it is said of God that he creates good and evil.
Have you not read the Bible?
YOU wanted to make a populace statistic claim of who says it.
Go ahead and present your statistic.

And it doesnt really matter what THEY say.
I was asking you.
So a god - impersonal or not - that creates both good and evil is not evil, but neutral.
Everyone can see that you absolutely refuse to touch this. Coward.

You were wrong. the claim was of a statistic, and the burden is on them to provide the statistic.

Never said that they was, i was showing posts which you haven't responded to because you was to reatred and had nothing to you dumbass.

>>42039936
because if everything had a cause and there was not an something which was nessery then this would result in everything being contingent (caused) on something else to substance itself, hence causing an infinite regress, i didn't respond because if you don't even understand how a fucking infinite regress impossible i see no point in talking to you

Something always existing with no cause or explanation is more nonsensical than infinite regress, because it is not logical.

Don't make me fucking laugh with this weak ass attempt of diversion

you made the claim that

you was the first to prepose this in the first place hence the burden of proof is on you dumbass

I don't care what the other guy said, that doesn't concern me hence i never got involved with the meat of the argument,

I cant keep talking to a retared who already got bitched two times, its frying my brain

If the concept of infinity is logical to you then it doesn't follow that you would believe the person of God is eternal (i.e. existed for an infinite amount of time)
>>
>>42040001
>so you are not op
No.
>>It is not good or bad itself. There contains both within it.
The person I was talking to, I think OP, said this about the universe as an explanation for why the universe is not evil.
I responded.
>People say this of god.
Because that is exactly what the Bible says about God, and thus if the universe does this and is neutral, then it should mean when god does it God is neutral.
>you was the first to prepose this in the first place hence the burden of proof is on you
So you are not aware that God in the Bible says he created good and evil?

>>42040019

I'm going to assume that you meant illogical retard
never said that; i said that concept one god creates another god which creates another god of eternity is an infinite regress hence its illogical

What about the infinite regress is it that makes it too difficult for you to understand?

idk that the fact that you are trying to justify an infinite regress or that you don't understand how an infinite regress is impossible scares me more.
An infinite regress is not the same as infinity, look you don't even know what an infinite regress is so respectfully pick up a book or two because you have no idea what your talking about

this is so tiresome
>>
>>42040040
>yes you are stop lying
lol retard
>still haven't provided proof that People say this of god.
So you arent aware.
Isaiah 45:7 has God saying he creates such evils.
>>42040044
The fact that the retard suddenly mixed people up is endlessly frustrating.

kek can i be the pepe laughing please

>you don't understand how an infinite regress is impossible
An entity always existing with no explanation is not more logical than infinite regress. At least infinite regress can be followed back forever, eternal God is just a brick wall.
>>
>>42040056
Again you have to provide proof that People say this of god. i don't care what bible verse you have, a lot off people don't even have a full understanding of the bible

Again if you follow the responses back its op, stop trying to fucking lie

You think an infinite regress logical

GG have fun

>i don't care what bible verse you have
The Bible is people saying it.
And again.
I never cared what other people say.
I asked a question of the person I was talking to.
You mixed us up in an attempt to be logical and failed in every way possible.

Not OP.
I disagree with OP.
I was asking them a question.
You fucking retard.

your ISKCON theology is literally the Hindu equivalent of American protestant Christianity
>Most saints and spiritual masters are in conflict with another one.
Yeah, like how Shiva worshippers say that Shiva is the causeless cause of all causes, word for word like ISKCON followers describing Krishna

Dharmic religions also blame victims for their suffering based on HYPOTHETICAL crimes from HYPOTHETICAL past lives

>I wouldnt want to be in a place controlled by someone who doesnt allow anything but their own conception of perfect.
That is literally ISKCON's version of Heaven. Their god also kicks you out when you disagree with it. Or even better when you stop worshipping him after growing up in the broken-person trauma factory that is ISKCON then he decides to torture you by causing bad circumstances that never happened to you before in your life and using a sadistic abusive person to torture you, and give you nightmares about him, and attack you in a dream after you pray to him about something and then don't follow through with it, and when you pray to him about something else you almost completely stop being able to remember your dreams after that. Krishna destroyed my life and has been torturing me for 3 years since I stopped worshipping him. No one believes me. I read someone say they got serious bad luck after throwing out a Ganesha statue. Hinduism shouldn't be dealt with by foreigners.
Half of ISKCON are secretly still Christians anyway. All you guys do is create broken people and broken children and broken families.
Indian spirituality to non-Indians is like an unexplored forest on an island that humans have never inhabited. You have no idea what you're getting into, and the presence of evil is tolerated.
