Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

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. All you will see here is that "god sent the flood" or what is actually says is that He brings a flood, you will not ask why. If you read that with a critical eye instead of a open mind then you will say that God is being a sinner. If that is what you think then all you see is a opportunity to discredit God and don't consider what God was doing. What God did is an act of righteousness to cleanse the earth of such overwhelming wickedness and debauchery. He did it to insure a better chance for His children to make it back by removing the intense evil. He did it for the sake of those who died in the flood by taking away their ability to sin further in the flesh and condemning themselves to be servants of Satan.. Everyone was happy with the outcome, and if you hadn't noticed, nobody blamed God or complained, therefore, no suffering was induced or even mentioned by these people. Nowhere does it say that anybody suffered or that God inflicted suffering upon them. You have interpreted it thus to feed your own disdain for God. You have assumed that God inflicted suffering even though the chapter does not mention that or even remotely insinuate it. How can you inflict suffering by your actions if nobody is actually suffering by your actions.And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: But not one mention of anybody suffering. If you are honest you will concede.

Wow, just wow. So your argument is that the bible didn't explicitly say that the people who were DROWNED suffered as they drowned, hence, they didn't suffer. That's not the worst part of your response though. So it was like a giant fun water park that was so fun it killed them? Are you serious? Only a complete sociopath would flippantly claim the murder of thousands/millions of people was ok because they were (insert unjustifiable reason for genocide here). Even god admits himself that he went overboard, genesis 8:21, saying he wouldn't wipe people out by the millions again. How can you not see how stories like this can twist up some peoples thinking?

God removed the weeds in order to allow the flowers to blossom and for the production of good fruit. That is an act of righteous love for us. You have given me two examples and I have adequately refuted both of them.

No, you have restated your position and then follow it with completely irrational, nonsensical arguments like the above. Which I immediately and easily pick apart.
 
You are making the fireman a straw man. That is a logical fallacy.

Men create their own suffering without any help from God.

OurCreed said: So there will be good and evil where God enacts on His attributes. God cannot be just if there is nothing in the world that causes some injustice.

But your god created man. Your God created ALL things, right? Once again I must spell it out. What do you think would happen if a parent gave their 2 year old child a bucket of paint and a brush and then left them to it? Would the parent be blameless for the resulting mess?

If you're saying what I think you're saying then it's clear you don't know what bigotry is.

No, everyone is not naturally a bigot.

Like you were unawares that the world had witnessed two large airliners crash into the Twin Towers and then think that I was referring to the Twin Towers when I said there were no body parts or engine debris. Is that similar to what you mean when you said that I don't know what I am saying when I said that we are all a little bit bigoted?

bigot

ˈbɪɡət/
noun
  1. a person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions.
  2. One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race,or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
  3. a person who is intolerant of any ideas other than his or her own,esp on religion, politics, or race
We all become intolerant towards those holding different opinions. Whether or not we have the courage or humility to admit it is another thing.

We were talking about the twin towers at that point in time.

But you've ignored the important part of my post. Whether you were talking about the twin towers or the Pentagon, I provided links with photos containing airliner parts in the rubble at the Pentagon and at the WTC site.

A whooping, Brobdingnagian, ginormous Straw Man. What a ludicrously shambolic analogy. I think you need to think more carefully when you want to draw a comparison. God created one perfect man and one perfect woman. Together they fell into mortality where they created the human race, a race of mortal imperfect humans. God could not create anything lesser then himself, perfection, otherwise he would contaminate Himself with imperfection and cease to be God. It all falls neatly into place, You just have to find someone to blame, don't you. What I dislike the most is your air of arrogance when you say these things, like you cannot possibly be wrong so it is me who is wrong and has all the stupid beliefs and opinions and you are teaching me, like saying "Once again I must spell it out". The problem with that is when yo screw up everyone notices.

No, you didn't. You produced an old engine of some sort that was placed there. Very soon after the plane supposedly crash while being flown better then a accomplished pilot could though he had only flown small single engined planes, they cleared the whole place of everything that was on the lawn so you would have a job to photo something that was not there. There was no parts because it was a missile that hit the pentagon. Secondly, the pentagon and the plane in the field were not witnessed by the world smashing into their target, as those who smashed into the Twin Towers were, so they were the only ones that I could have said that they disappeared about.

CBS has done a fantastic job of not re-airing the footage of Donald Rumsfeld at the 10th anniversary of the 911 attacks Donald Rumsfeld voluntarily discloses that as he walked out of the pentagon there were only "tiny shards of metal debris and nothing resembling an airplane crash".

Lamestream media "CBS" posted the following story on thie site which shows nearly all of the other interviews in full video form with the exception of the interview with Donald Rumsfeld. Not one sentence of the recapulation of CBS includes the most interesting part of the interview. The part where Rumsfeld himself says" There was nothing resembling airplane wreckage at the pentagon crash site on 911 2001.

OurCreed

There is no God but Allah
I agree with that our purpose is here is to be tested. But that's the reason that God would never violate the natural law of the rational universe, which definitely includes divine revelation--which is absolutely all hearsay anyway. It would disprove the pudding.

Divine revelation can be given to any individual. It wouldn't be hearsay if you were given divine revelation.
 

OurCreed

There is no God but Allah
What's wrong with everyone being in heaven? Besides, how is choosing between going to heaven or going to hell even a real choice? What fool would choose to go to hell? How is it freewill if you give people only two choices and one of them is something no rational, sane person would choose. If god is good and merciful he would want everyone to go to heaven right? You have already said in another thread that in heaven people's freewill will be limited to only good choices/decisions. So freewill, in the end, doesn't seem to be a major factor in this anyway. So saying evil exists to test us doesn't really work. He should have just put everyone in heaven and save everyone a lot of unnecessary grief.

I already answered you in another thread, not gonna repeat myself.
 

OurCreed

There is no God but Allah
So you think that evil is a deliberate, purposeful creation of God?

Good is being near to God and evil is going away from God. God created humans with free will, to give them the choice to accept Him (going near to Him), and reject Him (going away). So since this free will is a creation of God, then evil is the result of that when free agents deliberately go against God. So yes, God created this condition of evil.

Wow, just wow. So your argument is that the bible didn't explicitly say that the people who were DROWNED suffered as they drowned, hence, they didn't suffer.

No, they didn't suffer because a caring loving God would have allowed their spirits to be released prior to any suffering, in my opinion. But you are quibbling because I am right. Nobody was said to suffer in the flood. You cannot deny that as it is fact. So how can you contend that they did? I do not believe that there was a flood and science backs up my belief. I think that it is a story with divine principles.

That's not the worst part of your response though. So it was like a giant fun water park that was so fun it killed them?

Is that what you think?

Are you serious?

Yes
Only a complete sociopath would flippantly claim the murder of thousands/millions of people was ok because they were (insert unjustifiable reason for genocide here).

Right, so now the atheist calls me a sociopath. Thank you for the usual insult.

Your perspective is one of a human and not a God. You think you see the whole picture, hence the arrogance, however, you only see a small part of it. You portray these people as model citizens in order to make God look bad. These people where almost inhuman in their wickedness. Worse than any people you could imagine, or want to imagine. So evil were they that they defiled the land upon which they walked and made god sorrow in their creation. If you think that God cleansed they earth of decent, wholesome people then you delude yourself and in the process you try and delude anyone who reads your words.

Even god admits himself that he went overboard, genesis 8:21, saying he wouldn't wipe people out by the millions again. How can you not see how stories like this can twist up some peoples thinking?

Yes what wonderful inspiring words that are indicative of a loving Heavenly Father. He was not admitting any such thing of the sort. That is your tainted interpretation. He did not wipe anybody out either. We are eternal beings and like energy, we cannot be wiped out. Then can only twist up peoples thinking whose thinking is already damaged. Do you misinterpret intentionally to try and confuse, or do you genuinely not see the divinity and unconditional love in His beautiful words[/QUOTE]

Yes, it could, but why to an individual instead of universally. Secondly, an individual revelation is only relevant to that person even if he could determine that it wasn't misperception, hallucination or other mental aberration. And you ignore the final part, that divine interaction would undermine our free will--which is what we're here to test, if God does exist. Your test would be over at that point.

And your evidence is?



It was Jesus who volunteered to be our Saviour and to take upon Himself the sins of the world. God did not send him he chose to go.

There is no such thing as total forgiveness all the time we are in the flesh. Jesus will alway have to bridge a gap between perfection and imperfection, hence, the atonement. A reconciliation between man and God that will allow us to live with God again and progress, that is, unless the gap is too wide in which case another place in the lessor kingdoms of God will be their destination.



You have just told us who was at fault, those who killed Him, so how do you conclude that God is clearly at fault when he wasn't even there.



As clear as muddy water.


Good grief I am saying God is not at fault by using sarcasm Read my post again

Why do you assume I literally meant “24 hours?” If I tell you I was at work all day today, do you assume I meant I was at work for 24 hours?

I assumed you meant all day because you said it was on fire "all day" and a day is 24 hours. I know that when people go to work it is usually for a period of 8 hours so I would assume that when you say you have been to work all day that you mean a working day, which is usually 8 hours.

So what if other types of buildings that caught fire didn’t collapse? Every building is not subject to the exact same conditions as every other building. I can throw eggs at the same wall over and over and they won’t all break in the exact same way every time. I could hit the same pole in a different car every day and my car won’t be damaged in the exact same way every day.

A poor analogy but I know what you are saying, however, when you get many buildings, of the same construction as building 7 was, that are on fire, the way that the heat transfers to the metal is identical regardless as to what is producing the heat source or at what temperature. Therefore, if none of those building collapse when on fire whilst receiving the same level of heat transfer then it becomes a characteristic of that kind of building, which it was, up until Building Seven when office fires, with a low specific heat capacity, was claimed to have weakened the trusses. It is therefore deemed as uncharacteristic and should have been included in the NIST Report, instead it was completely omitted.

If all three buildings were brought down by bombs, why did whomever was blowing them up wait 9 hours after blowing up the first two towers, to blow up tower 7?

Something went wrong with the detonation of building 7. It was supposed to have comedown with the rest. which is why there has been so much emphasis put of
Larry Silverstein's comment when he excitedly said "They are going to pull it"

Ah I see. You weren’t trying to say it was just “grazed” then? What’s the pointing in quoting something if you weren’t trying to use it to assert what was being said in the quote?

Because the important part of the quote was something else.

Apparently the fireproofing and fire-suppressing systems in the buildings were insufficient to withstand the massive fires the planes caused. Human beings aren’t perfect after all, and can’t always account for every single situation that may ever occur.

The fuel that was ignited when the planes hit had dissipated within seconds of the collision. What was burning was the material that was in the building and any office furniture. Eyewitness testimony and video evidence document no inferno at the aircraft impact level

This observation along with the above indicates two things:
  1. There was little fire in WTC 2 prior to its collapse.
  2. The black ash from WTC 1 indicates the presence of large amounts of soot. Soot is a byproduct of inefficient combustion, therefore the fires in WTC 1 did not burn at extreme temperatures.

The "truss theory" relies on the assumption that 800ºC+ infernos started a catastrophic chain of events which led to the collapse of the twin towers. There were fires in both buildings following the aircraft impacts, but no infernos - "most perimeter panels (157 of 160) saw no temperatures above 250ºC.

Ryan wrote that the institute's preliminary reports suggest the WTC's supports were probably exposed to fires no hotter than 500 degrees -- only half the 1,100-degree temperature needed to forge steel, Ryan said. That's also much cooler, he wrote, than the 3,000 degrees needed to melt bare steel with no fire-proofing.

"This story just does not add up," Ryan wrote in his e-mail to Frank Gayle, deputy chief of the institute's metallurgy division, who is playing a prominent role in the agency investigation. "If steel from those buildings did soften or melt, I'm sure we can all agree that this was certainly not due to jet fuel fires of any kind, let alone the briefly burning fires in those towers."

More Interesting Reading Here

It sounds like you spend a lot of time counting scientists. Have you counted the number of scientists that don’t agree with your claims? Maybe you could share it with us, just for curiosity’s sake.

No other scientists seem to be voicing an opinion, other then those who put together the NIST Report, who said it was set up to fail..


What do you mean and where did you get that number from

People who voted for the current Government do not want to admit that they erred in their judgement so they will back the government even though they know they might be wrong. You give the same impression. They are conformists.

It is not an exact figure. The population of the USA is 286 million. 47% of that population have said that they believe it is an inside job which equates to about half of them, which is 146 million.

I was pointing out to you how the analogy actually works because you claimed that it doesn’t.

You said "People thought at the time that it was unsinkable. Just like how you apparently feel that the Twin Towers were built so perfectly that two commercial airliners couldn't destroy them."

and I said "As I have said, a couple of times now, but you insist on repeating yourself, so I have to put you right, I have never said that I believe the Twin Towers to be built perfectly just built to withstand a strike by multiple airplane."

To which you said "I was pointing out to you how the analogy actually works because you claimed that it doesn’t."

Where is the connection between these three posts and this "I was pointing out to you how the analogy actually works because you claimed that it doesn’t." What did I claim that it does't do?

So what if it was built for that purpose? It doesn’t guarantee that it will withstand a strike by multiple airliners. That’s the point.

Well, there claim that is does was taken seriously by the insurance company and those who rented space in the Twin Towers, it is just you who have not taken it seriously and have said, Oh well, people make mistakes, it was only 3000 innocent people that died because of someones exaggeration. By the very method of the construction made it impossible for just one airplane to cause a collapse. It would be like sticking a pencil through a mosquito net. It would make a who but the overall strength of the net would not be compromised. It is the engineering and design that enables him to say that several holes in the net would not cause it to fall not his opinion but a scientific fact.

We’ve had over a hundred years to scrutinize what happened to the Titanic so now we know, in hindsight what was wrong with it and what went wrong with it. The people who built it in 1912 could have (and probably did) make the very same argument you’re making here, and they would have been right, at the time. They were indeed more technologically advanced than most everyone who had come before then. Probably 100 years from now we’ll know a lot more details about what happened to the buildings on 9/11.

Those who built the Titanic new that the bulkheads did not go up far enough so as to allow for more first class cabins. They knew the risk they were taking. Poor quality material is always a risk to use, whether in 1912 or today. As for 911, we don't have to wait a 100 years to find out what happened, we already know. It is the silence of the Government and people who are unqualified debunkers who are preventing the truth from coming out. They are hindering the passage of the truth.

The major design flaw in the building of the Titanic was that the bulkheads didn’t reach the ceiling. Some of the known design flaws in the WTC was their lack of sufficient fireproofing and fire-suppression systems. I’m sure we’ll know even more in the future.

The temperature of the fires were insufficient to cause the trusses to weaken. The temperature was only around 250 to 500 degrees. For a weakening effect to take place would require a sustained temperature of 800 degrees and a lot longer exposure than 85 and 56 minutes. It would take far longer for the metal to absorb sufficient heat to become malleable.

You assumed I was going to insult you.

I assumed it because it is a frequent event..

What happened in on the 9th of November in 2001?

OK, you got me. I made a mistake with the date. Damn, what a clutz I am. In the uk it would be 11/9. The 11th September but the USA say September 11th - 9/11

Oh, have you talked to them recently?

No, but there are videos and photos of them on the internet.

The planes that hit the WTC were 767s.

And your point is?

Designing something in a certain way doesn’t guarantee that thing will behave in the exact way it was intended to.

If you are scientifically competent it does. That is why the scientific method requires repeatability. Have you heard of an "error factor" that is used in almost everything that is made. One airplane would not exceed any error factor on the design of the mess like cage that encompassed the twin towers.

We know this happened … how?

Ok, I admit. Some elements in this story are speculative. I do not know for instance if Atta was killed in Germany or in America. But the story is an coherent educated speculation. It is an attempt to reconstruct the events of 9/11. Myriads of web sites exist that expose the inconsistencies in the official story, that obviously is a fraud. This story offers an integral explanation of what could have happened and in all likelihood more or less did happen at 9/11 as there can be hardly any doubt about who was behind 9/11 if one rejects the official story. Some elements remain vague, like what happened exactly to WTC7, flight77, flight93 or Mohamed Atta. But these questions are of academic interest only. It's clear who was behind 9/11 and what happened in detail with WTC-1/2 and the planes. That is enough. Here's where most people got killed. The rest of the plot can be uncovered by a tribunal.

More of This can be Found Here

There seem to be a lot of people involved in this conspiracy theory. Not one single person has blabbed about it to anyone? Not one single person ever saw a single suspicious thing?

This interview of Alex Jones with Andreas von Bulow, the former German Defense Minister said that 9/11 had to be carried out by a very small group of people. Alex asked him 100? 40? He said less than that.

let's start counting:

Read the Rest of this Report Here
In the days after 9/11, numerous pilots and aviation experts commented on the elaborate maneuvers performed by the aircraft in the terrorist attacks, and the advanced skills that would have been necessary to navigate those aircraft into their targets. The men flying the planes must have been "highly skilled pilots" and "extremely knowledgeable and capable aviators," who were "probably military trained," these experts said.

And yet the four alleged hijackers who were supposedly flying the aircraft were amateur pilots, who had learned to fly in small propeller planes, and were described by their instructors as having had only "average" or even "very poor" piloting skills. But on their first attempt at flying jet aircraft, on September 11, 2001, these men were supposedly able to fly Boeing 757s and 767s at altitudes of tens of thousands of feet, without any assistance from air traffic control. Three of them were apparently able to successfully navigate their planes all the way to the intended targets, which they hit with pinpoint accuracy.

For such poor pilots to carry out such skilled flying would surely have been extremely unlikely, perhaps impossible. And yet this is what is claimed in the official account of 9/11.
http://shoestring911.blogspot.co.uk/2011/07/911-hijackers-amateur-aviators-who.html

I’m not sure what kind of pinpoint accuracy it takes to hit a really tall building with a giant plane. Or to just “graze” one of the buildings, as stated in the link you provided.

Neither am I, so I listen to those pilots who do.

The FBI in the US had been investigating the potential use of planes by terrorists for at least 10 years before the attacks on 9/11 but it didn’t occur to them that terrorists would hijack planes to carry out suicide missions. Sounds like another one of those human flaws where we fail to see every little thing that could possibly ever happen, though it seems obvious now.

WAR GAMES ON SEPTEMBER 11TH

On the very morning of 9/11/01, five war games and terror drills were being conducted by several U.S. defense agencies, including one "live fly" exercise using REAL planes. Then-Acting Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force General Richard B. Myers, admitted to 4 of the war games in congressional testimony -- see transcript here or video here (6 minutes and 12 seconds into the video).

Norad had run drills for several years of planes being used as weapons against the World Trade Center and other U.S. high-profile buildings, and "numerous types of civilian and military aircraft were used as mock hijacked aircraft". In other words, drills using REAL AIRCRAFT simulating terrorist attacks crashing jets into buildings, including the twin towers, were run. See also official military website showing 2000 military drill, using miniatures, involving a plane crashing into the Pentagon.

Read the Rest of this Report Here

Brigham Young University Professor of Physics Steven Jones has suggested that thermite, or some other powerful, high temperature, high explosive capable of slicing the powerful steel columns that comprised the WTC towers central core, provided the energy missing in the official account.

In a September 1, 2006, New York Times article, "U.S. moves to debunk ‘alternative theories’ on Sept. 11 attacks", Jim Dwyer reports that the National Institute of Standards and Technology, an agency of the U.S. Dept. of Commerce, disputes Professor Jones’ suggestion. NIST believes that such "enormous quantities of thermite would have to be applied to the structural columns to damage them" that engineered demolition is not feasible.

Gentle reader, note what NIST is saying. If no reasonable quantity of the explosive thermite, which is used for engineered demolition, could damage the powerful buildings, the measly energy from an airliner, a bit of jet fuel, and gravity could not have collapsed the buildings. Can you see how incompetent these people are. How could you trust in their accuracy.

This is a perfect example why blind faith is a bad thing, not only for one's religion, but for having a rational outlook. I'm not saying there's no such thing as a conspiracy, hell, there's no doubt that LBJ had Kennedy assassinated, the rational evidence is overwhelming, but those with blind faith (faith with no foundation in reason) are indoctrinated to disregard rational evidence. Was there criminal incompetence on the part of mid-level management of law enforcement? Absolutely. But there was no conspiracy to bring down the WTC, crash the Pentagon or leave a Jet burning a field in Pennsylvania.

If nothing else, could we at least get back to the subject at hand, although I think at this point it's been demonstrated that we aren't likely to make any reasonable progress.

God is the Ultimate Unity of all things, including Satan, the Lord of Disunity. Being the Lord of Disunity, Satan cannot but break away from God (creating the early universe in the process). So in this sense, God is More Powerful than Satan but still not powerful enough to prevent Satan from breaking away from God. Moreover, though the Most Knowledgeable, God is not omniscient, and Satan is a very powerful being, so God does not know where Satan is hiding.
No disrespect but that sounds like a gaping plot hole. How can the original creator (who is more powerful) not be able to control his weaker creation?

A whooping, Brobdingnagian, ginormous Straw Man. What a ludicrously shambolic analogy. I think you need to think more carefully when you want to draw a comparison. God created one perfect man and one perfect woman. Together they fell into mortality where they created the human race, a race of mortal imperfect humans. God could not create anything lesser then himself, perfection, otherwise he would contaminate Himself with imperfection and cease to be God. It all falls neatly into place, You just have to find someone to blame, don't you. What I dislike the most is your air of arrogance when you say these things, like you cannot possibly be wrong so it is me who is wrong and has all the stupid beliefs and opinions and you are teaching me, like saying "Once again I must spell it out". The problem with that is when yo screw up everyone notices.

It occurs to me that "perfect" beings wouldn't have screwed up in the first place. Your "logic" is messed up. We didn't turn out as god expected and he puts all the blame on his creation.

You still haven't answered my question. How is it immoral for a human to order someone to be murdered but it is moral for god to order someone murdered?
