A Literal Genesis Entails An Evil God
RE: A Literal Genesis Entails An Evil God
Quote:GC wrote:Why does God need to be the creator of good and evil, that actually makes no sense at all. God has always been, and it's not because He does good we call Him good, it is who He is, God can only be good and thus good comes from Him. With this said God who is all good could not create evil, no more than He created good. For God to have created good He would have had to create himself and He did not do that because He has always been.

That's nothing but word salad, complete with croutons. You've really outdid yourself this time.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but that would be this world.

Quote:GC wrote:Why would Christ have been written about in secular history, He came to save people from sin and people have never wanted to be accused of sin, good reason for historians to leave Him out of their writings, don't you think.


Well, seeing as how he was reputed to have done some pretty amazing things, one would think that there would have been mention made of him. So why wasn't there? Perhaps because he never existed?
The dude is right, precious little from that book can be proven. There were no patriarchs, there was no bondage in Egypt, hence no Exodus. No Davidic Empire, no Noachian flood. All those little details about the virgin birth and the resurrection were all swiped from earlier religions. You hitched your wagon to a dead horse. Dead Horse
