Did God start discrimination?

[Neuropteron]

Did God start discrimination?
[Assuming God exists of course]

Discrimination = refers to unfair,unequal treatment of an individual (or group) based on certain characteristics
including:

• Age
• Disability
• Ethnicity
• Gender
• Marital status
• National origin
• Race,
• Religion, and
• Sexual orientation.

1) Is it good to discriminate? Should it be allowed to discriminate?
2) To tell someone he goes to hell or heaven based on above characteristics is that discrimination?
3) To tell that God said so in Bible, can we say "God and Bible are discriminating [asuming both are true]"?
4) Is it good to follow a God/Religion/Scripture who discriminates? Should it be encouraged to follow this?
5) If God is said to be Omni benevolent etc.could it be that human dictated part of scriptures and not God?
6) Evangelizing and proselytizing: Human invention? If yes, why? Or you still think God wants us do this?

Any ideas or other questions popping up?

---------------

1. No:
The Apostle Peter states: ...for a certainty I perceive the God is not partial...
Acts 10:34.

2.No:
Why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? Rom 14:10

3. No
Nowhere is discrimination encouraged in the Bible.

4. No
Concerning those who display ungodly traits Paul says:....having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power, and from these turn away.

5. ? definition needed.
The Bible declare in many place that God (JHVH) is almighty or omnipotent. The term omnibenevolent is however not a scriptural term but a profane one.

6. Yes
Proselitizing is a requirement that Jesus Christ gave those professing to be his followers, thus is not of human origin.( see acts 10:42 or Mat 28:19).

I have to disappoint you here. I already got 2 tickets first row in heaven. You are welcome to join me
In heaven it's all fun and stuff. So will be hard time for the Aghoris to change to new lifestyle

Yes, there are Catholic monks and Saints who become addicted to penance, suffering, being persecuted, and living in danger as well.

They might have difficulties adjusting to all the fun, mansions, gardens, luxuries, and joy!

1) Is it good to discriminate? Should it be allowed to discriminate?

See the key word in your definition is including.

For example telling a someone with a drinking problem that you will not serve them alcohol is discrimination, though it's not any of the forms mentioned. And it's probably not a form of discrimination anyone (except the alcoholic) would object to.

Or giving someone with more work experience over another person with less would also be discrimination.

2) To tell someone he goes to hell or heaven based on above characteristics is that discrimination?

With "unfair, unequal treatment", the answer would be: only if you view heaven and hell as proscriptive.

3) To tell that God said so in Bible, can we say "God and Bible are discriminating [asuming both are true]"?

Adding an assumption that the Bible is wholly representative of God.

4) Is it good to follow a God/Religion/Scripture who discriminates? Should it be encouraged to follow this?

I mean the definition of discrimination is so broad as to be meaningless thanks to the word "including" in the definition. So it's not inherently good or bad.

5) If God is said to be Omni benevolent etc.could it be that human dictated part of scriptures and not God?

Which scriptures are we talking about?? Just the Bible??

6) Evangelizing and proselytizing: Human invention? If yes, why? Or you still think God wants us do this?

Wait, what?? What does that have to do with anything else??

I just put up a few questions to get it started.
Feel free to fill in the dots if I did not, or insufficient.
Or if you have any good items I missed, feel free.

Just use creativity. First coming to mind is: Evangelizing/Proselytizing implies "My religion is better than yours etc.etc.". So full of discrimination. So has all to do with this. [e.g.: Christianity (white) is superior religion and Islam (non-white) is inferior religion to make it super obvious. Avoiding the word black to not discriminate]

Where do you get the idea that Christianity is white and Islam is non-white??

Most of the most well-known Muslim countries and the one with the highest Muslim population (India) are all majority caucasoid to my knowledge.

Oh I guess I was to creative here

I just gave you an example [hypothetical, unreal, just fantasy]. Just to tell that you don't need to stick to my 6 points. You can also be creative and make your own. Because I saw that 5 of the 6 points you were just saying "can't say anything because info is missing or something". So I said "feel free to fill in the missing dots, that is fine".
