Why doesnt god kill Satan?

So true. Once you open your views to debate, others are bound to point out the contradictions in them. You should have known better.
You have an itch you just need to scratch every time. Get past that and we might just begin to actually dialogue. If it brings you comfort to assume you are the genius to point out my contradictions, then enjoy.

How's real life for you?

Peace...

Yeah, I have this childish hangup on the truth. Sorry.
Does it bother you at all when your beliefs contradict each other?

Obviously, there is chosen limitations when it comes to dealing with us. He can't force us to love Him....etc.

So where does that leave omnipotence?

Well, as soon as you limit what God can do, that leaves omnipotence as something that God doesn't have.

In case I wasn't clear. Hardship and suffering isn't necessary for it all to workout; it just is. Knowing future events doesn't make you the creator of them. Allowing it to continue I can see you not grasping but contradictory? I just don't see it.

...isn't that exactly what I have been saying? It's not necessary, God could prevent it and yet it is. How do you explain that?
Knowing future events doesn't make you the creator of them.
No, being the creator of the universe makes you the creator of them.
Allowing it to continue I can see you not grasping but contradictory? I just don't see it.

Unfortunately for us both I grasp what you say, AND I'm contradicting you. It's because I disagree with you. It's the kind of exchange that's fairly common on discussion boards such as this one.

Or how about the more realistic approach, man is responisable for all of his actions.

Omnipotent...haha. Some would call it indifference.

Yes, that is confusing, because what you said is:
Some things can only come about when faced with hardship.
, so that sounds like it is necessary. Did you want to revise that view?
Now suffering just IS? Isn't your God the creator of all things, including that suffering?
Knowing future events doesn't make you the creator of them. Allowing it to continue I can see you not grasping but contradictory? I just don't see it.
But isn't your God the creator of all things?
 
I would like to know the reason.Is god testing us?or is Satan more powerful than God?


Thanks.

Because every work of fiction needs a bad guy.... The people who wrote the book conveniently needed a bad guy to keep the masses loyal out of fear. It's one thing to threaten someones life, but when you tell them if they don't do what you say because God will throw them into a lake of fire for eternity.... Well you kinda get the picture I'm trying to paint here.

Like God, Satan and his hell as well are a creation of man and the punishment part of the religious oligarchy for those who may stray away or question their authority. This fear of Satan leads to some pretty wacky things like burning people at the steak because you think the invoke hellish powers....

The very fact it is claimed that God is all powerful yet needs a hell for sinners just shows why the biblical God and Satan aren't really entities but instead rather part of an early complex totalitarian system which people used to manipulate and control others.

It's not the rivalry that God and Satan supposedly had that leads me to this so much as to why there is such a rivalry and why a supposedly all powerful being doesn't seem to interested to stop it.

Satan will never be defeated, nor will he ever win.... This was done by design so that there would always be a way to leverage the fear people have in their minds. Neither one really exists and the story of their rivalry is so 'human' that I have a hard time trying to believe that Satan or God were anything more than creations of their time and people there of.

Nice "opinion" piece.

It could be that God is simply a metaphor for "Good", while the Devil (Satan) is simply a metaphor for "Evil". Both of which are dependent upon the subjective experiences of man, so it is quite likely that the term God derived from the creative and pleasant aspects of life, whereas the opposite is true for the Devil. Both good and evil exist in the hearts and minds of mankind only. We are the vessels through which these two opposing "forces" operate, and it is through our actions that they are released upon mankind. :run:

IF you truly wish to define Evil, it is not within Satan. Nor is Good within the Christian God.

On the other hand, good and evil are labels used to separate both of these personal terms.

One is considered 'evil', because of their opposition towards each other. It is common among people to shun an aspect of life. Yet a higher being is over looked upon our reflection. As the Mass has twisted and narrowed perception to their benefit.

Is it beneficial to be 'evil''?

Or more like being misunderstood, intolerant and incompetent. Or driven to destroy 'evil', when all evil is in opposition of you. Is this not dominance?

Christianity's mass is overwhelming. Yet they are dictative and perception altering, not only to the physical realm, but also the Absence.

The 'truths' are written by the victors. Written by the people who have succeeded in overcomming their foe, their challenger, their heretics, the indifferent, and their Advesaries.

Yet what makes their Justification truth?

As all things witnessed are peceived.

Satan is literal for the meaning of Opposition and Advesary.

As all 'Gods' have provoke opposition of an aspect.

Thus all things are Satanic. Some refuse to admit, others never return from within their minds, others separate carnal knowledge (us) from 'divine' will (us). As man is capable of deceiving his very own means of survival.

I find it fascinating when people share their ancient, tribal superstitions. On the other hand, it is somewhat disturbing to realize that people who think in this way are active in the modern world.

If I've said it once I've said it a hundred times. Human should not use the Jinys to make Diablrie.

"Those of us who have been given eyes to see, will never be laid to rest but free'd from oppression"-Dimmu Borgir

How can you claim such a truth? Your perception is just that, a percepton, not knowledge, not truth, PERCEPTION!

We are Nature, we have instincts, we are born from the very Stars, as we are the dust of one that has passed.

Need some 'knowledge'? Heres something for you http://homes.bio.psu.edu/people/faculty/uhl2/essays/chrisuhl-we_are_stardust.pdf

By the way, the literal meaning of Satan, is Opposition or Advesary. Clearly, you are in Opposition of an Aspect of Life you know nothing of, so you are Satanic as well.

Yes God testing us ... the Satan is not more powerful than God ...tell me why ? because the God who created the Satan (not the Satan who created the God) and created everything ...

Can you provide any logical evidence for this? I mean besides your perception of Life.

you question : why God created the Satan ? no knows why exept God

So you don't know that? Hmm...

i give a these two sentence ...will save you from the Satan and these two sentences disable the any satan effect or Diablerie effect do by the Satan Diablerie do by human use the Jinys to make Diablerie ...

Uhm...Abrahadabra!

1"I seek Allah(GOD)'s protection from the rejected satan"

2-"In the name of Allah most Compassionate most Merciful "

Mercy is not truth.

Your sins are next to mine.

Love, not doctrine
Perhaps God kills (bruises) satan's head everytime the Seed of Christ within mankind is allowed to come forth..?

Actually, I believe the questions was: Why does God not kill Satan?
