Why is that most likely? Why wouldn't it just as likely that none of the religions has it right?The problem with your approach is that if there really is a God, “your problems” and what you’d “rather” won’t matter.
Most likely there is one religion that has it right, or close enough. To figure out which one, you probably have to put aside your own preferences and purposes.
So it isn't about the devil?If you are more patient, I’m sure I will give you legitimate things to argue against. This kind of thing just makes you look dumber than you have to.
Awesome for you.I just made myself laugh!
I actually started to give you a real answer. Then I remembered what you are.
Woo woo....woo wooPlease allow me to introduce myself…
The two most important questions are:
1) Is there a God?
2) If so, what does he expect of us?
The answers to those questions will affect the answers to many others.
there's also that interesting take on the blatant plagiarism of older religionsSURE... God created everything... ALL POWER... ALL KNOWING ... OMNIPRESENT...
but.... created the Devil and can't control him. Multiple Gods??
Bullshit! The "Good Book" needed a bad guy.
They also needed to put all the other gods into some context.
It's great fun when you get to create religion!
People who are wiser than you.
Good and evil were invented in books...so it makes sense to use books to differentiate them.
Oddly, why is it good and evil and not good and bad?
So why isn't it Angelic and Evil?Bad is what happens to milk sitting in the fridge too long.
Evil is adding Sarin to the milk.
So why isn't it Angelic and Evil?
Yah, you don't seem to get my question.Because, personally, I don't like bringing anything smelling of theology into ethical debates.
Too often it makes what should be a guideline about being a better person into an excuse for being a dick to other human beings.
Who was selling it?So why isn't it Angelic and Evil?
I think you might be correct. Although I think it's more about the "evil" side in that religious folks wanted people to discourage bad behavior and so any bad behavior was seen as "evil".Who was selling it?
The "good" who wanted to place prominence on the "bad".
Which is better, a comparative word statement, or a biased one to make your case? Using words that emphasis the bad as evil to make your point,while keeping the "good" as simple and pure.
I'd agree, it was about discouragement of bad behaviour, as opposed to just placing a label on someone.I think you might be correct. Although I think it's more about the "evil" side in that religious folks wanted people to discourage bad behavior and so any bad behavior was seen as "evil".
I'm sure there's a YouTube user discussing the history of this...just need to find it....lolI'd agree, it was about discouragement of bad behaviour, as opposed to just placing a label on someone.
Yah, you don't seem to get my question.
