We need not redraw anything. Your god invented death, sin, cancer, earthquakes, asteroids wiping out an entire planet's worth of life, and so on. And if you don't worship him, you will go to hell for eternity.
We don't need to redraw your godling as a devil. He most assuredly is one. I'm reminded of the episode of Twilight Zone where Anthony sends folks he doesn't like to the cornfields -- "It's a Good Life".
Come now, Thump. That's not his gawd you're talking about. That's just what "religion" has told you. After all, it's not like we have a book that details all it's atrocities.

Or the "everything is meaningless thing" ??? Take your pick..but, since you continue to fail to understand, I don't much care about socrates dilemma, I've been discussing your dilemma. The one where you proposed a rule you immediately refused to endorse because..on second thought, sounded like "devil stuff" to you.
Heaven forbid you say you misspoke? Like, literally, do you think heaven forbids you from saying that you don't actually believe that thing you said?

I'd rather be dumb than broken, too.
You know, I mentioned this point in these conversations to another poster quite a few pages ago. Where we get to a place so often in these conversations that what you and people like you are saying could only mean that you're sociopaths - and how it's actually pretty difficult for me to believe that's true no matter how hard or repeatedly you all insist.
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!
