Argument against "Divine Scripture"

RE: Argument against "Divine Scripture"
(January 2, 2012 at 7:37 pm)Minimalist Wrote: Tobie, my young friend, allow me to introduce you to Celsus, who in the 2d century took a look at xtian horseshit and came up with this:


Quote:"God does not inflict correction on the world as if he were some unskilled laborer who is incapable of building something properly the first time around; God has no need to purify what he has built by means of a flood or a conflagration (as they teach)."

If it were possible to embarrass xtians, ( it is not, they are too dense) the idea that a so-called "pagan" had a more exalted view of god than they did should have done the trick.

Welcome.

This quote from Celsus is as flawed as most christian views of god. By saying that there is no need to purify the human race implies it is perfect. If the human race, or as a matter of fact, anything in the universe was perfect, why would there be so much misery?
