Would you care to show where I stated anything, anywhere which could be interpreted as knowing the mind of a god/s. I simply played your own statements back at you and stated the incompatibility of them compared to the necessary truths about xtian god held by theists (ie your fellow believers). Taken together they demonstrate the impossibility of your position, so someone is wrong. I clearly do NOT know anything of a god/s, let alone the mind of one, as I don't believe in a god of any description. As I have pointed out you seem to, becuase you know what he desires and I'm delighted for you, on your behalf that you can personally communicate with the creator of the universe. Now we've addressed your ridiculous rejoinder, perhaps you'd like to enter a traditional debate and either show why my arguments aren't necessarily true and/or square how a perfect and immutable god desires anything, as you know him SO well.(March 16, 2011 at 1:53 am)Captain Scarlet Wrote:Now who's claiming to know the mind of God, using a double standard Cappy.Godschild Wrote:I'm admitting blame and yes it makes perfect sense when you understand that God created all things and created angels, humans and anything else that can know God. God desires love from us and to have the love He desires He had to give us freewill. God has no desire for forced love or loyalty.Not only is it interesting that you know the mind of god and what he wants (which in itself is staggeringly arrogant and impossible). But then your admitting your god is not perfect nor immutable. A perfect and/or immutable being/entity/personhood etc can have no desires, else they want want something they do not have; hence they would not have perfection and be seeking a change to the status quo.
