One day you will find out just how invincible God is and yes you will be impressed.

You do know that to an atheist you look like a primitive witch doctor pointing a bone at him threatening him with death. The atheist is not afraid of you or your primitive threats.

I haven't threatened anyone, I'm stating what is said in the Bible. You shouldn't be afraid of me, you have no reason. What you should be afraid of is yourself and the wrong choice you are making with your eternal life, God will give you what you choose.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

According to the bible god is not invincible at all.
Judges 1:19 God gets defeated by iron chariots
God did not defeat those armies because the Israelites had disobeyed God, God had already started their punishment for their disobedience just as He promised them He would while Moses was still alive.
Abaddon_ire Wrote:Gen 32:22-32 Jacob wrestles god into submission. god then cheats.
Cheats now that is funny, Jesus has all this power and allows Jacob to struggle all night long then jesus uses this power to show Jacob it's useless to struggle against God. God will come out on top every time.
Abaddon_ire Wrote:Gen 3:22 god fears Adam becoming his equal.
Care to show the biblical explanation for this, betting you can't.
Abaddon_ire Wrote:Gen 11:1-9 god fears the tower of Babel.
Care to show the biblical explanation for this, bet you can't. God had given a command to the people to spread out into the world and they disobeyed so He gave them reason to. God wasn't afraid of some stone tower, He knew they needed to spread out over the planet so they wouldn't become like the pre-flood people were.

I am not quite sure how you would like to manage a world, let alone a universe where crime is acceptable - betrayal, lying, greed, murder, rape, the list is endless. Would you, like Lot, offer up your daughter's to be raped? I wouldn't but you would, that makes you morally bankrupt.
So what exactly is your point Abaddon?

God, as described in the bible, is an immoral thug, a butcher, a slaver, a hypocrite, a liar, a rapist, and so forth.
Is that clear enough or must I swear to get the point across?

Nobody should fear a fictional super natural anything. But I do fear human logic that leads humans en mass based on that bad logic to harm others.
I am not afraid of Yoda either, but would be if a "Star Wars" fan club started a religion out of it, gained political power, and started oppressing non Star Wars fans.
