I know you gave it a decent try negatio but perhaps if you spent sometime looking at how other posts go, it might help you to familiarize yourself with things here.
Good luck though.
I do not understand if by suggesting I look at other threads in the forum I may learn to refrain from saying certain things, or, might learn more about properly responding to and properly quoting other members ? Duane

It simply doesn't.
Law is at least efficient enough to keep me from doing something I want to do, and I'm just discussing human law, here.
The contention is that law, in the general sense, demonstrates incompetence on the part of a god...but..again in the general...it doesn't. It may in reference to some specific law. Ultimately I'd agree with you, that god is awfully dumb for a god and some of that can be seen in gods laws. I'm suggesting that your particular line of reasoning doesn't demonstrate that. Mostly, because it's just not sound, no matter how many times you reassert it our who's authority you cite.
-or how many words you use to communicate it......
Me man, me find law sometimes determinitive. You wrong. Feel me?
(That one was straight up for you, Emjay, lol)
Are you calling me dumb? Oh right, I already did
I'm gradually getting there, so I probably will comment on it at some point. But till then I'll happily take the Khemikal Digest
-or how many words you use to communicate it......
Precisely what is unsound about what I am maintaining; just to assert that it is not sound is not enough, you ought to explain your assertion. Thank You. Negatio.
