Again. it must be nice to live in a place where every little thing that goes wrong in the world can be justified to you as simply, "God's doing....he has a reason." What is that reason? Is there a reason for millions sick and/or starving? People being murdered, raped, and countless other things. Sure there is a simple reason, it's a fairytale, fiction, or whatever word you want to use. Now I know I won't sway you thumpers anymore than you will sway me. But what of my second argument if you don't like the first. "God knows everything right? He knows what he will do in the "future" (in any dimension, not necessary the time dimension). He must have known that from the very start of his own existence. That would mean God's actions are predestined. God is tied by faith, he has no free will. And if God has no free will God is not omnipotent. PS JB- Time and space do not exist? Since when? You look like you are doing pretty well for yourself, if you are so worried about the world's hungry, maybe you should give them your food. If all humans followed God's commandments, there would be no starving or rape or crime and disease would be uncommon. But we don't follow God's commandments and blame God for the outcome? What arrogance! |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Since when? That would imply the existence of time. ![]() I have explained this in other threads and so has Abracadabra but I don't think the concept is easily understood by most people. |
