The argument against "evil", theists please come to the defense.
RE: The argument against "evil", theists please come to the defense.
I read your response and have a rebuttal, but I would personally like to condense the issues as best we can.
Would it be too much for me to ask you to pick the vital issues that must be addressed and either copy-paste them or summarize them to the best of your ability. My hope is that we can eliminate the wordwalls we have going and make the whole process more efficient.
The reason I burden you with this is because I feel you understand my position, but I am have trouble understanding yours because it changes from time to time. Not beating you over the head here, just saying what I have observed.
So. Can I ask for this little favor?
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.
-Bertrand Russell
