Because they read it in a stupid old book.


Plus, in the old days, good, holy xtians would kill anyone who didn't believe in their particular fiction.

Indoctrination as a child.
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

"God" did not create man, man created "God" ;\\ How can a god be omnipotent, all loving, and all knowing at the same time? Because it can not. If that god allows innocent people to die, he one, can not be all loving, if he's all loving, then two, he cannot be all knowing, if he's all knowing, then three, he can't be powerful enough to stop it.

He "could" be 2/3 of them, but never all three. A huge flaw in the man-created god.

Personally, I think all three of those qualities are ridiculous and belong in the world of fairy tales. While I will often engage in debates about them and how they work, there's always a part of me that thinks "what nonsense... it's so man-made"

He could never be 2/3 of those... because then he would be 200%. Smile And if you use two of those (Haven't thought too hard on the first, so idk): they contradict themselves... by definition Smile
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
