God does not follow the first principle of morality. Why not?

ONLY IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF GOD. Only if you are working of an ancient greek god model. Only if you think Epicurus' paradox somehow applied to a God he could not possiable know nothing of. (Check the time in which epicurus lived and died)

Yet it applies to the Christian god rather wonderfully. Invalid argument.

Quote:Actually no, There is no free will in sin. You/we are slaves to sin meaning we have no choice but to sin. "Free Will" is the ablity to choose redemption from sin.

That's not free will, that's a decision. A decision that makes people hate your religion because it forces them to feel inferior and in debt for the rest of their lives.
Quote:The reason the paradox does not work is because the foundations of Christianity were laied by Jesus Christ 200 years after this man died.

You love to repeat yourself.

Quote:What's more The omni aspects of God are not a biblically recorded doctrine.(If you wish to argue this show me book chapter and verse that describes the omni aspects of God) These are doctrine carried over from other religions and have been made to fit the revealed nature of God. Which is what the so called paradox hinges on. Remove the non biblical aspects of this paradox and it falls flat.

Really? Let's check your magical book!

Quote:Ah, so God isn't all powerful or all knowing? He's just some guy who created the universe, controls everything, and knows every thought?
“Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!” (Revelation 19:6).

Omnipotent.

Quote: Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in hell [the grave], behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me” (Psalm 139:7–10).

Omnipresent.

Quote:God sees all things, and nothing can be hidden from His knowledge—not even the secret intentions of the heart (Psalm 44:21)
there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account (Hebrews 4:13).
He knows us better than we do (Jeremiah 17:9-10; Hebrews 4:12)

Omniscient! The three O's are right there!


Quote:Kinda like your arguement.Tongue


MY argument?

Or, as you say "arguement"

The true beauty of a self-inquiring sentient universe is lost on those who elect to walk the intellectually vacuous path of comfortable paranoid fantasies.
