Otherwise, it's just creating problems to solve. Interesting perspective, and quite accurate. The more one attempts to apologize the actions of man-made god, the one more supports the problems of ill logic derived from such a god.  RE: In UK atheists considred more moral than theists.

But wait, I thought they gained free will by eating the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. So did they gain free will from having more or less knowledge? This Xtian mythos is so inconsistent. Not like Harry Potter, Cthulhu or Lord of the Rings. But I suppose it was the first in the fantasy fiction genre.

There are many more qualities to God than 'omniscience'. The Bible states that "all things work together for good to those who love God". So even a decision God makes that you deem "sub-optimal" (due to limited knowledge) is in your best interest. If you gave a small child a choice between eating cake or broccoli everyday, the child will undoubtedly choose cake, but any good parent would choose broccoli, which from the point of view of the child is a sub-optimal descision, but is ultimately in the child's best interest.

Grow the fuck up already. (August 28, 2018 at 11:10 am)Huggy74 Wrote: The end result (something an omniscient being knows) decides what is best. How do you know that what your god wants is in our best interests? Do you always believe the government as well when it tells you that it knows what is best for you? How do you know that humans aren't being harvested like farm animals?

Yeah, but.... is like..anything really real..you know, man?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Well in that case there's nothing any of us whether 'theist' or 'atheist' are going to be able to do about it, now is there? |
