Also, again, you still haven't explained to me nor specified which of his attributes imply that he is "unjustifiably" angry.

As in... every positive creation brings about an opposing force.So, you're saying that when God created something good/positive, an opposing (evil) force automatically came into existence? That God didn't even intend that to happen?
(July 12, 2012 at 8:42 am)fr0d0 Wrote: Light being the positive force, dark is the neutral state that it reverts to.But light is a physical concept and it's only "positive" in a physical sense.
And since you tried to make an analogy there:
If darkness is a neutral state which light reverts to, then would you say that evil is also the "neutral state" which the good reverts to, or is it the opposite state?

It's what can be clearly derived from the text as it stands.And there is a debate as to whether or not the Trinity related verses in the Bible were the original words of God considering how much textual alterations there are in the Bible.
There was even a Christian member in this forum, Alter2Ego, who posted why the concept of Trinity may not be a Christian teaching.

(July 12, 2012 at 8:42 am)fr0d0 Wrote: Jesus was angry, but he wasn't sinful in that anger, as anger can be good. The answer to this will be included in the one for the question above.So, when Jesus (or the Christian God) gets angry, the anger is good and not sinful. But, when Allah gets angry, He is "unjustifiably angry" <- (in your own words).
= Double Standards
