Who god hates

[brewer]

In the presence of an omniscient god aren't all of the deaths, divorces, remarriages, ............... predestined? These poor schmucks had no chance/choice.

We're atheists, not our problem the desert people made up an inconsistent, self-contradictory, unlikely, confusing, immoral, incomplete, inadequate and inconvenient religion.

Perhaps those poor schmucks might make up another one that works better ?

No. Not predestined. My foreknowledge that Alabama will win the NationalChampionship again this year does not denote predestination.

God clearly hates himself, for he is a byproduct of man's imagination. Which means man hates himself. Men who hate themselves are often the ones who go the furthest to make others hate themselves as well.

I've always found this issue interesting.

The best response I've had to brewer's question was that things aren't predestined but that God simply sees the paths that we can take -and of course knows beforehand what we will do- and lets us run.

Frankly that still sounds like, for all intents and purposes, predestination to me. An original answer was nice for a change though.

So when you hear that 100,000 Christians are dying for their faith, you need to keep in mind that the vast majority - 90,000 - are people who were killed in DR Congo.

How does that change the fact that people are being killed because of a bullshit? Or the location where they were killed belittles the fact that human beings are being killed?

I'm divorced.  For none of the "acceptable" reasons.  I agree with 99% of your discernment of what the bible says about God and divorce.

So...god hates you?

Jesus too . . .

And we won't even start on what the ex thinks! hehe

God hates it when Satan fucks him in the ear. That's what God hates.

25% of all "known" pregnancies end in miscarriage. It is thought that as many as 25% more pregnancies abort without the woman being aware she is pregnant. God must hate babies.

Be fruitful and bone, and bone to your heart's content. Oh... let me kill a quarter of them okay?
