    Have you read the entire Bible (as opposed to various passages)?

    Did you find it to be consistent and not at odds with itself? Did you find the God that you were reading about to be one worth worship?

    Yes i dont believe in God but you do... so im discussin the issue based on whatever you clame you'r bliefs to be.!!!
    Youv'e said that God created evil... ie... but for God evil woud not exist... im jus qurious as to why you bow down to a God who unnecessarly created the circumstances in which millions of children woud suffer unspeakable torture.???

    The Old Testament is much more consistent then the New Testament to me.

    Very odd and strange but also completely predictably that most of the Bible reads as if it was the thoughts of one man. To me.

    As you can see, I do think everything is relative, now don't go deep...

    Actually I didn't, a smirk maybe, but as soon as I sent it I thought "that's an English word, it's not used in the US", so I guess you are from the US.
    He did not create the circumstances... look towards humanity for that.

    Typical western arrogance. What they need is the rule of law, not charity. Right now what's preventing that are wars, mostly religious wars between Muslims and Christians. They can grow their own food.

    Oh that, yes, well the oil wealth is going dry, and it's the only thing that made it possible for so many people to live in an arid area without much agricultural output. That's why they are getting poor and desperate, and turning to extreme forms of religion.

    Not religion, boil this down to Islam.

    I think all religion is the problem, it's just an accident of history that Islam happens to be a problem now, because it is the major religion of the Middle East.

    So God set up the circumstances which made it inevitable that Adam an Eve woud "sin" (the garden... forbiden fruit... evel snake)... an then punished Adam an Eve for behavin like ignorant people wit poor character... ie... the way they was designed to behave.!!!

    Sinse this is the show God wanted... why do you thank hes not pleased wit it.???

    Genesis 6

    5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

    6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

    7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

    8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

    Thank Jesus.
