HOW THE FUCK IS GOD SELLING FREEDOM IF HE ONLY WANTED TO TALK DOWN ON YOU AND FUCKING COMMAND ANYONE AROUND LIKE A FUCKING DRONE. HE COMMANDED ADAM AND EVE AROUND LIKE FUCKING DRONES, THEY HAD NO FREE WILL TO DO WHAT EVER THEY WANTED TO DO THEY HAD NO OPTIONS! SO HOW IS GOD SELLING FREEDOM WHEN HE NEVER WANTED US TO HAVE IT!
you go on and be a slave to god fine by me i don't really care. but what i do know is in my atheist world view science is right god doesn't exist and we all have to deal with one another with equal respect.
What makes you think God is selling freedom?
God is looking for servants/slaves, and so is satan. That is why I said 'free will' is a joke. It is a greek construct and not one made orginally in the bible.
God promises his yoke is easy and his burden light, (Again think of Joseph and his position as pharroah's slave, He was the #2 guy in all of egypt, and lived like pharroah did.) and well look at the world around you and see what sin brings. Famine, war, disease (Think all the worst parts of third world nations.)
