If He did you'd never learn.

Why doesn't He intercede to help starving people and whatnot? Because (if God exists) the Bible tells us that 1. He deliberately created evil in, He thinks, a 'very good' world nonetheless and, 2. that He takes pleasure in his creation.

Because I don't believe they deserve anything less. The only thing necessary for evil to prosper is for good men to stand by and do nothing.If you dont want to answer next time just say so. A) That WAS my answer. I'm sorry if it wasn't an answer you "agreed with", but that happens to be how I feel about the "people" you are referring to. When "people" are selfish, inconsiderate *ssholes, why should I have any hesitation about being hostile to them in my criticisms? B) How about following your own goddamn advice? You have still yet to answer any of my questions (something I've come to expect from you at this point. So maybe YOU should just say that you don't want to answer questions whenever someone asks YOU! How do you feel about that? (not expecting you to answer)

I would not bother, Blade is clearly a five star idiot. No, you're a five star idiot. Clearly. And you're clearly not a Christian either, Gagreel isn't a Christian because he follows the word of man. That's a fact. He linked to religioustolerance.org multiple times on the old board.

He linked to religioustolerance.org multiple times on the old board. That explains a great deal. Hell, maybe that explains it all. The meaning of the word "tolerance" has been twisted over the years to mask a social agenda which can be described as radical (at the least).

This is a statement from religioustolerance.org
We are a multi-faith group. As of late-2016, we consist of one Atheist, Agnostic, Christian, Wiccan and Zen Buddhist.
He follows the word of man.

Hey Gad - a guy who cracks wise about a bombing that targeted kids and an Ebay scammer who asks people where their kids sleep are conferring over the legitimacy of your Christianity. You're doing something right!

Bruce Almighty is a goofy movie and I have always appreciated its take on God etc. When free will is in the game, things get complicated.

I getting a positional promotion next week and I have a four day weekend! If you want to know why my answers aren't satisfying you, you'll have to look within. And if you're still confused as to why people like you deserve criticism, I suggest you I bury your head from the sand, start from the beginning of this thread again and "catch up". Despite your inability to answer any questions defending your indefensible and ridiculous ideology, all of your questions have already been answered.

Despite your inability to answer any questions defending your indefensible and ridiculous ideology, all of your questions have already been answered. Mate? Are you British now? What can't I defend? A) Because you choose not to (by avoiding questions). B) Because they are inherently indefensible positions that expose hypocrisy, immorality, logic fails, or general ignorance. If God chooses NOT to end suffering when it is within his power to do so, the only two options that leaves us with are that God is either EVIL, or that there is no actual God to begin with. That's the impossible paradox that theists like you are left with trying to defend. OT: I had to re-read my post (I didn't realize I actually said mate, lol). In any case, I am not British by nationality, but I did live in the U.K. for several years, so I've picked up some of the lingo I suppose.

Why doesn't He intercede to help starving people and whatnot? Most likely because he doesn't exist
