I think it means you lack pity for God because of the straw man this Galen fellow keeps bringing up.   Sad

Huh? Galen's argument that I quoted is against free will; not against God.

Did you not understand? 

It's not about Him being able to protect Himself or not, and neither is it about us needing to do anything.

We feel offended on the behalf of those we love when they get called bad names, get made fun of, etc. That's a very natural human reaction.

But it's only rational if we are able to defend them and they need defending.
