A 6-year necropost? Goddamn

Yes^ why reinvent the wheel? Multipurpose (which I will reveal later) I have for doing this as well!

rap exists. There is absolutely no way any just god would allow for such an atrocity.

If this wish granting magic sky daddy of yours actually exists, it is either grossly incompetent, or it is a cruel, vicious, blood thirsty, narcissistic monster.

Neither version is worthy of the sweat off my balls, let alone any sort of worship.

That goes in an argument 1.  Argument from evil/suffering.

Arguments against God, it can be in 4... if you mean undeniable display of God to all people like through writing in the sky or something.

But this premise is:

1. Contested.
2. Absence of evidence doesn't necessarily mean evidence of absence.

Divine hiddenness is probably the argument against god that I, personally, find the most persuasive.

So 4.

That's cool, thanks for letting me know!

If he existed in time, and is a necessary being -- has always existed -- then he couldn't have created the universe, as that would have required the traversal of an actual infinite, which is impossible (Craig, 2007). If he existed and created simultaneously, then he also exists in time, as simultaneity is a temporal relation. In that case he did not create the universe because a cause must precede its effect. So, your God did not create the universe in either case. As this exhausts the potential cases, your God did not create the universe. Since God is by definition the creator of the universe, your God does not exist.

QED.

9. Paradox to create and be eternal. (Jo - is that a good summary title?)

The human imagination is formidable if not limitless.

The what-if scenarios for schema that are by definition undetectable is limitless.

Life is brief and the actual is entirely sufficient.

Therefore, why spend the valuable, limited resource of time which we do have on worrying about which of a multitude of hypothetical undetectable realities might also exist?


Addendum: I will smack the first person who says "because if we don't figure it out correctly we might lose a limitless treasure and receive a horrendous disincentive". Screw that.

Love doesn't require an explanation, it is the why. If that won't lead you to search for him, nothing will.
