Quote:I defy any believer OF ANY RELIGION to name me one bad thing god has allowed that you would be willing to hold him to account for.
No religion is homogeneous. I have never come across a consensus on any given moral issue.
One example:
A great many Jews hold God responsible for the Holocaust. The argument is that in doing so,God broke the Abrahamic covenant.
Do be careful when making sweeping statements,there's a good chap; makes you look like a bit of a dill
This position is eloquently examined in the powerful teleplay 'God on Trial'
Quote:God on Trial is a 2008 BBC/WGBH Boston television play written by Frank Cottrell Boyce, starring Antony Sher, Rupert Graves and Jack Shepherd. The play takes place in Auschwitz during World War II. The Jewish prisoners put God on trial in absentia for abandoning the Jewish people. The question is if God has broken his covenant with the Jewish people by allowing the Nazis to commit genocide.[1]
