1. This is an atheist forum. Religion is not respected here for its own sake. If your arguments cannot stand without fiat credulity, we will ridicule them. If you want your religious views to be respected then you should go to a Christian web forum.
2. God set Adam up in the first place. Why should a man who has no sense of right and wrong be punished? Even after Adam's so-called fall, we were doing fine, working together peacefully at the tower of Babel. Your god saw this and was so intimidated by what we might accomplish that he confused our language. Jesus' death is like a doctor who makes you sick only so you can feel grateful when he makes you well.
3. Based on what the Bible itself says, we can only conclude that the god Christians have created hates humanity and even created us for the specific purpose that he needed something to hate. Example?
God doesn't do things out of love or justice. As one poster called him, that "draconian psychopath" does things because he has the power and no one can stop him.

The part is true,because this place is anti-religious ,the blue bit is were you go wrong one can pretend to ridicule them even if they are true.
If you want your religious views to be respected then you should go to a Christian web forum.(True) but his here to spread the word,his not looking for any respect he doesn't care if someone here does not respect it,any way God has given each one free will.

The answer is simple—we are without excuse since we sin too (Romans 3:23; 5:12), and we all deserve death before a perfect Holy God. To assume Adam’s descendants are innocent is a false assumption. Due to the sin nature received from Adam, death is coming for all since all have sinned (Romans 3:23).They were working together peacefully,but earlier on they dis-obeyed God's word to spread out,But man resisted and rebelled against that commandment: in Gen. 11:4, it says,"Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make a name(for ourselves) lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." False Jesus did not make anyone sick.

Romans 8: 21 Wrote:Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
Incorrect verse
Romans 8:21 says
that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.Romans 8:21
Thats Romans 9:21
Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use?
Here it isn't saying anything that God created us to hate,but just showing that he has every right over us
You say he/she/it cares not for respect, yet...

Do why did Adam sin? He did what he was created to do. If we sin because we have a sin nature then Adam must have been created with such. Since it was god who set us up to sin and Jesus is god then yes, Jesus made us sick.
You are reaching for straws both when you point out that I typed an 8 instead of a 9 and when you quote the New American standard instead of the KJV. Paul’s whole argument supports mine for he is saying we are nothing more to god than pots to a potter who does what ever he wants. God does not respect us as human beings. I should say the Church does not respect us.
Maybe you should quit while you're behind.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
