Omnibenevolence
I was wondering if anyone knows when this historically become an adopted characteristic of the Judeo-Christian God. It's one of the most popular attacks by my fellow Atheists on God's existence, but I find the argument to be one of the least convincing. If Zeus was the popularly believed deity, the argument would be ridiculous since the Greeks considered him to be a total bastard. So when did the idea come about? Do all Christians today (or at least on this forum) believe that God is all good?
