The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work

Yes. I can, and I just did (again), and thank you for finally admitting it.

Quote:Also having subjective morals means that there are no absolute right and wrongs and your opinion on what God does are just your opinons but have no real foundation. Also God allows but does not cause evil. Still He will judge evil and has the right to since by Him you are only able to have a true foundation of right and wrong.


If Gaud is personally and solely responsible for creating a system like the Universe, then he is personally and solely responsible for everything that happens within that Universe as well as all possibilities that exist within it. All the good, all the bad, all the joy, all the suffering, it's ALL on him. If evil was introduced to the system by something other than Gaud, the thing that introduced evil was still introduced into the system by Gaud. If he really were the causeless cause, then everything would trace back to being his fault. Everything. This is an inescapable truth of your premise, and it is the reason Gaud cannot be the Creator of our Universe and also all-good, all-loving, and all-powerful because he deliberately created a system with full prior knowledge of how badly it would go for its occupants, and he still created the system anyway for purely selfish reasons. Jehovah is a monster worse than 1,000 boogey men, and I used to hunt boogey men. Those fuckers are nasty.

Quote:You can make up stories about what my life would have been had I meet come aginst some other religion but God is soverign and led me into truth. No matter what it is by the grace of God that I know who he is.

"Oh, but that didn't happen, so it couldn't have happened."


Yeah, it could have. If you had been born in a Muslim country and had the same experience, the next book you stuck your nose in would have been the Quran, and you would have converted to Islam (if by some strange twist you hadn't already by whatever age you were when this happened to you). Allah is said to have the exact two qualities you mentioned. You probably would have been safe from Mormonism, but the Jehovah's witnesses could have snatched you up just as easily. There are plenty of variants of your Gaud, and there are plenty of other gods said to have similar qualities. Even though the stories and characters are all different, nobody's religion is truly unique.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
