Understanding the bible
RE: Understanding the bible
Quote:Repenteth means sorrow or sadness, not regret. God was saddened by the depth of man's fall, His love was so great for man and man had left their creator. Yes He knew this great fall was coming, but like I said God's love was so great it still saddened Him, this is how terrible man had become.

I had a debate about "interpretation" with another Christian a long time ago about Malichi 2:3 "Behold I will corrupt your seed and spread dung on your faces". He claimed I was reading the wrong version and that it was "refuse", meaning trash.

I said fine "trash or shit" would God spread it on your face. So when he got called out on that he copped out to metaphor.

I DON'T CARE IF YOU WANT TO CALL IT SADNESS OR REGRET. It still doesn't change the stupidity of the argument that God is all powerful and allows things to happen that he says he doesn't want happening. He would still only have himself to blame for being sad. If he didn't want to be sad he shouldn't have let it happen in the first place.

You simply don't want the buck to stop at him, so you play mental gymnastics to justify your crap.

IF YOU CLAIM HE IS ALL POWERFUL THEN HE ONLY HAS HIMSELF TO BLAME FOR BEING SAD

You merely want a super hero to exist, which is why you are stuck in very bad logic and will do anything to dodge the blatant contradictions of a very bad concept and bad logic.

We are not arguing this as if your god is real. We are taking your words and simply saying with your words why this concept as a claim is broken.
