Good exists - a Catholic comments

[The Architect Of Fate]

It doesn’t answer the question of “does God exist?”. It answers the question “Do you know if God exists?”

It doesn't need to as if people claiming he exists cannot demonstrate his existence then were justified in saying you have yet to demonstrate its existence. 

And if you don’t know, that’s fine. It means you don’t know the answer.

No it means I'm justified in saying your claim remains undemonstrated

If you want to quote something from an article or anything else that’s outside content, copy the text you want to quote, tap the quote button, then paste what you copied inside the quote box.

The universe is evidence of the universe. Care to try again?

Since there are actual explanations for the existence of the universe, what you’ve got there is an assertion, not evidence.

Suppose someone asks me for evidence that gnomes exist. I point at my car and say, ‘Gnomes built that.’ Would you consider the existence of my car to be evidence of the existence of gnomes?

how do you know a moron is even more stupid than the ordinary dimwit?

when the moron thinks it is very clever of him to accompany his stupidity with idiot theatrics.

So no evidence then just bear assertions and an argument from ignorance.

Your own scripture denies that free will exists.

Romans 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

Sorry, no it doesn’t. You can’t have sin without free will. Nor forgiveness. Scripture is full of it.

You can't have either an all-powerful or an all-knowing god while also having free will. Because if free will exists, god can neither have power over everything nor can it know everything.

Oh and my disproof for the christian god (well all the abrahamic gods) is that it is impossible for a being to be all powerful or all knowing as each attribute necessarily cancels out the other.

Is this confirmation there is no free will in paradise?
