how god only wants the best to ascend to weed out the weak
which is what keeps happening
the problem of evil is philosophy 101 garbage
as far as the issue of evil, god allows evil to continue to exist for the same reason your parents dont throw you in prison for stealing a cookie
You can't claim there's a contradicition between omnipotence omniscience and omnibenevelonce when you can't even define what power knowledge and ethics are in your reddit tier atheist relativist philosophy
if god would prevent evil totally and immediately it would mean wiping out humanity
Ask him if he beleives in universal truths
agree with sava
who from Reddit is Shawn debating?
jim goad
some old gen x edgelord
if god exists why does evil exists

evil is a retarded concept lul
yeah
It's not easy arguing with someone who has the patience to write books
"I hate moral fags"
"trannies are bad."
it is when they contradict themselves over and over @Wolfman Jack
>i dont like that the bible is contradictory so im going to be self contradictory
I can not think of one thing in the NT that contradicts the OT
(because theres nothing)
im fucking 21 cunt
yeah
he is also wrong about christians being told not to be angry
Ephesians 4: 26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
1. All things contain both actuality (what something exists as) and potentially (what it can become)
2. For things to change, their potentiality must be actualized by something else (i.e. for a log to catch on fire it must be acted upon by something else)
3. If everything’s potentiality can only be actualized if something else acts upon it, this forms an essentially ordered series of potentiality being actualized
4. The only way for this series to have a beginning point (not in time but as a first mover of everything in the series at that moment) is if it contained only pure actuality and no potentiality
5. This pure actuality would then just be being itself
6. To this we give the name “God”
C: Congrats God exists
yes
"he that is angry without cause, shall be in danger; but he that is angry with cause, shall not be in danger: for without anger, teaching will be useless, judgments unstable, crimes unchecked" -St. Thomas Aqiunas
he already made it clear this comes down to daddy issues
Imagine thinking that everything has to be fun to be important
