[Serious] What God's justification for eternal torment?
RE: What God's justification for eternal torment?
(December 17, 2020 at 11:20 pm)The Grand Nudger Wrote: So tedious.  OFC I can, but it seems a bit pointless to argue as much with a person who thinks that we can't rule demons out as the cause of earthqaukes.  Obviously, if we handled the subject of knowledge in anything even approaching a similar way..you wouldn't wonder how a routine dismissal like that happens.

You didn't get it, did you ? The idea of a supernatural agent accounting for natural evil is not mine, by the way, it's plantinga's famous solution to the logical problem of evil. So, as you see, your "routine dismissals" ignored a full argument of a professional philosopher, which you think isn't worth discussing. Stop ignoring arguments and don't let your ego get in the way next time

Pathetic.

Where did I ever claim I have moral authority, Wth are you talking about.?

And if a god actually exists, he has more access to facts than you do, and obviously gets them right. God's moral statements must be more accurate than ours, then, isn't it?
