Hello,
I am a Christian. I am here to conversate about religion and subjects related to religion. I thank you for having me here on your atheist board and I look forward to meeting all of you. I appreciate a lively debate and I hope to find it here. See you.
Of all choices, atheism requires the greatest faith, as it demands that ones limited store of human knowledge is sufficient to exclude the possibility of God.

If he wanted to make free creatures then he would know that some woul be evil (all-knowing) and he wouldn't do that (all-loving) and he would just defy the idiotic logic of this video and create only good (all-powerful)
If he is all-knowing and he still created free creatures then he is not all-loving.
If he is all-loving and wanted to create free creatures but wanted to prevent evil then he is not all-knowing.
If he is all-knowing and created free-creatures that can be evil because good cannot exist without evil then he is not all-powerful because he could do that if he can do everything.
Either way you look at it this video is equaly stupid.
Welcome to the forums anyway.
