    Which is the least depressing Abrahamic Religion?

    God is not curel he is just, in my opinion. Your life is a gift from God, so why not give thanks to him. Since you mentioned the kiling of babies: God killed babies who would have died from starvation otherwise. This is my opinion. A sudden death seems to be better than a long horrible death...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    I did address every single point of yours that you called argument. that's an assumptio, as I see it. If this were to be true, then of course there is no such thing as free will. But how will you prove this assumption? Let me put it that way: 1) IF free will is included in what you call state...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    first off, I did not exclude that genocide was the right thing to do for God in a given situation. yes I commented on the argument. I said that you relied on mere declaration to point out that there are no more than the two options (deterministic system and randomness). See below. I said you...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    yeah, and in the old thread you could not disprove the existence of free will. according to you, there is no third option (free will). You have nothing to back this up. if there is free will, this will be the reason of why the outcome wil be potentially different. no, the Canaanite people is...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    no I referred to Christians. this was my quote: Nowhere did God command Christians to commit genocide. no, this is not how it works. You came up with a bold claim. The onus is on you.

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    you misunderstood what I was saying. I said "Christians by name committed suicide". This does not mean that I preclude them from being true Christians. I chose a neutral term, leaving it open if they are true Christians or not. I am not the one to judge, Jesus is. There are many horrible things...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    man also has free will to disable the free will of others. That's included in the orders of creation, as I see it. However, society also can have a free will to fight crime. Hence, it isn't one sided at all. Often, it is entire armies that commit human rights abuses. Such as murdering. So, lets...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    in business, they often rather just don't care, I think. There are Christians by name who committed genocide. However, the Bible does not command it. Nowhere in the Bible. Give it some thought, Spiderman: what happens to (living ) babies if their mothers die? You claim to be very knowledgeable...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    You don't have to be ill to abuse others. There are people who are very sane and abuse others, too, I think. Look at the economy. Volkswagen co-owns a Chinese company that provides Myanmar's army with lorries. Regardless of all the human rights abuses committed by them. All they want is money...

    God wants us to love darkness and evil!

    I disagree with the title. there is free will, you seem to have forgotten that.

    Adam and Eve

    bad arguments for creationism are an invitation for atheists to present themselves as educating the faith of the believer. I also hear this argument in the churches. It's embarassing.

    Adam and Eve

    I believe God put a flawless book in place. I don't see any reason of why God would allow flaws in his book. I see the Bible as his book. Evidence? A God able to create this nature... in all its vastness is also able to write a little book correctly, in my opinion. EDITED to add last sentence

    If God exists, is there a problem with offerings to other gods?

    According to you, it's common sense. Yu can#t cite scientific studies to bolster your view. or... this: exactly (to the first part of the quote). But that is an actual limitation as I see it. but that's not how God is. He keeps to his covenants. That's the way he is. Outined in the Bible.

    Adam and Eve

    I don't agree, I take them as literally true. I don't think they are made up.

    Culture and god

    ok. Lets apply it to the following: prove it. prove it. prove it. prove it. prove it. prove it. You came up with the positive claim(s). Now the onus is on you to provide the evidenced, tested, predictive, repeatable facts for it. Otherwise I'll take your assumptions as (see your quote...

    Culture and god

    No, you didn't miss what I was saying. If a friend gives you a bunch of flowers and he beforehand elects the bunch he knows you will like... this is evidence of what? Love? Yeah exactly: love. Same with God, I think. He chooses the countrysides you like, as I see it. The beauty that you and...

    I doubt it

    Culture and god

    but that wasn't what I was talking about. I said, when the masses like (!) it, it serves as evidence for a loving creator. My point was about popularity and taste, not claimed truth. My music example referred to me. I am a solo musician. It's just me and my producer. That one is good, I can't...

    If God exists, is there a problem with offerings to other gods?

    my personal relationship to God is not the topic of this thread and I don't answer this. I want to stay on topic.

    If God exists, is there a problem with offerings to other gods?

    ? never did that. restricting a lifespan that used to be some thousand years to 120, according to the Bible, is an act of killing, as I see it. Restricting a life span is just that. for me, Genesis is truth. There was no death in the Garden, according to the Bible. ... like God. No husband is...
