Hey!!! I'm a girl! And I don't really think that God punishes, 'cause he a loving God rite? He gives us hardship so that we don't forget that we need him. Like when 9/11 happenned, so many people started going to church again. (not that it was good) Edit: people have different opinions about what a perfect world would be like. Like what if two people both wanted something? |

If we lived in a perfect world, we would be oblivious to good and evil like adam and eve were. and good point about satan. he's doin what ever he feels like doing. ALthough i beleive that eventaully he will be silenced and caught. sorry about that luciene, I was thinking too hard about other things and didnt really think about what gender I was calling you. lol In a perfect world, you wouldnt want anything, cause you would have only what you needed, and be happy about it. And even if the situation could arise, then the person would be like "No, you have it" "no you have it!" "No, I couldnt, you have it!" |

XD Actually, in this forum, you can't tell anyone's gender. But if God loves everybody, does that include Satan? |

*shrugs* Ive actaully wondered about that too, im not sure. I know that he did love him until he started disagreeing with him. But after that, Im not sure. I mean, satan is dragging the rest of his children away from him, god has a lot of reason to not love him. But I think that god still loves him, maybe in a differetn sort of way though. IM AN IMP! Im leaving for a week, so I better add my 2 cents in before I leave.... ... ... .... .... If gods an army of the most trained and hardened warriors ever. Satan is a 2 year old with a squirt gun. no clue where that came from, im just bored :krim:

In a perfect world nothing would be wrong, it would just be perfect. |

What are you people rambling about now? I thought '4 pages of people debating, hope they have some good arguments'. No, you guys are rambling about nothing coherent. Most of the offered proof of God such as creationists claims can be explained with science, just google 'so-and-so theory is incorrect' or something along those lines, and you'll get an explanation probably 100% of the time. And I think I saw a 'point' about 'so many people believed, can you just disregard that'. Uh...so? So, if we have free will, and God is omnipotent, he already knows what we're going to do, which rather destroys the point. Or else he doesn't fit the quota. :krim: Are we going to argue factual information such as creationist points vrs. evolutionist points, or are we going to talk about Satan and free will, which don't apply to this thread, really? Because if it's the latter, I'm going to have to hug Luciene. |

Aye, same here.
Debunk this Hodge, and we'll talk. God does not exist in the classical sense, when are you going to accept that? |

My head hurts from having to read so much. u_u "So, if we have free will, and God is omnipotent, he already knows what we're going to do, which rather destroys the point. Or else he doesn't fit the quota." (Too lazy to do the quote html) If the question doesn't make sense then the answer won't either. There can't be free will and a designated path at the same time. |

Not true, it a matter of choice; you can choose to kill yourself right now and be done with it. But you don't. You can simply pick up the kitchen knife and brutally murder your annoying parents. But you won't. If you are presented two choices, to a vast degree it's predictable what you will pick. |

That's not what I meant. Free will and paths. If you were created to be, say, a Truck Driver and that was your path, then would you really have free will in the end? I think God can predict things, and maybe try to stop stuff like mass homicide, but he doesn't choose your path for you. Predictable and free will are two different things. Tell me if I'm not on the right track though, because I think I may have mistranslated your post. |

*Sigh* The whole point of this thread is CreationVsEvolution, whether god exists or not. Prove to me god exists. As for your post: A rat in a cage also has free will, but can it control it's own destiny? No. Same principle here. |
