Good ol evil

RE: Good ol evil
Interpretation?! It says it! That's it. You base all your beliefs on interpretation from a book that is supposed to be the word of god.

You don't like my logic? So sorry my logic proves Christianity a scam. So you like the idea that MAN "created" evil? Really? Do you?

Don't be a dumbass, dumbass...

You're looking at an English interpretation of Hebrew text and claiming "It says it!"... So much for the scientific method. Undecided
I have NEVER said it was the "Word of God", and I certainly don't base all of beliefs on a book, so you're going to have to build another strawman...

I don't care what they say, they're not here... Beside that, I think for myself.

RE: Good ol evil
And you think evil was "created" by man... Or even at all? That sounds to me like a belief based on years and years of listening to and believing other people's bullshit.

Isaiah 45:7

New International Version (NIV)

7 I form the light and create darkness,
I bring prosperity and create disaster;
I, the Lord, do all these things.

I still am having trouble thinking of a Christian who does not base all of his/her beliefs on the bible.

Regardless, to the original point; Satan decieved Adam and Eve, so either god created evil in Satan, or Satan created it and imparted it into humans. Of course, god is omnipotent, so if he knew Satan would create evil but he created him anyway, does that count as creating evil? I think a much better way of looking at it would be 'sin'. Satan caused Adam and Eve to create sin, but I don't think 'sin' is a good way to judge right from wrong, considering slavery is okay, among a number of other things.

So you think "slavery" is OK?
Where does that notion come from?
