My premise is a bit of a reach. But I have logic behind it.
We both recognize that it was originally Pagan. But they also stole a Pagan/Wiccan god named "The Horned God" and claimed that it was Satan.
If they want to own this religion they can own the deity behind it.
Next of kin obviously.
The religion belongs to the Pagans of today, or it shall be considered Satanic.
Christians should return their image of Satan to those who worship the Horned God, as well as returning the Summer Solstice.
Is Satan a taker?
This is most likely coming from when Satan tried to steal the throne from God.
But view it like this. The Angels work for God in such a strict sense that they might as well be slaves. They are considered higher beings but their importance is so unrecognized within the Bible...
Was your birthday highjacked from George Washington by your parents?
No, it's a coincidence.
By my logic, a stolen Holiday should still represent what it originally was. By the same logic if you steal something from somebody it still belongs to them and not you.
I am sure that a majority of us recognize the pagan origins of Christmas. But very few if anybody understands the possibly "Satanic" nature of the holiday today. I am here to present the argument that Christmas is Satanic by the Christian definition of Satanic.
The Holiday was originally spent...
Then why try? Why should anybody try?
I won't remember my family in Heaven if I make it. I won't remember myself in hell if I don't worship.
Why should I try to get into the after life then? I think I'll take your news and use it to travel further from God, so that I might make my true...
I've read it multiple times. You're telling me he didn't have a choice though?
So we CAN'T act evil in heaven even if we wanted too? Sounds like slavery.
Not the kind of slavery where you work in a field. But the kind of slavery of having an unpaid butler. never being able to speak against you...
Satan have evil intentions despite knowing what was better for himself. was the most loved angel too meaning he had life extraordinarily well in heaven.
"All who go to heaven will be sanctified and righteous and holy, therefore will not sin"
Lucifer was Sanctified, he was righteous, and he was holy, yet he performed the real first evil act. What is your point?
"We'll be too happy to want to do evil"
What about the verses I literally quoted. In...
So if I was good and worshiped, God would upon my death reach into my brain and rip out important knowledge without my permission? I'm sorry but I won't allow that. I'd rather go to hell and keep my intellect than go to heaven and have important knowledge stolen. That isn't an insult either...
I do believe they have meds for removing all desire to do wrongful things. In old halfway houses they had a surgical method called lobotomy. They'd shove a needle through your tear ducts and pump acid onto your brain until you were a harmless child mentally.
See Muffled. You can experience what...
I assert that if Free Will exists in Heaven than evil can too.
I have evidence from the bible that Free Will exists in both Heaven AND Hell.
Luke 16:24
"And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue...
Explain Lucifer. No... Explain the army he rose in Heaven. Unless you want to argue that it was not evil for Lucifer to not only turn against God but attempt to usurp him then you can not argue that Evil can not exist in in Heaven. If Evil can exist in Heaven then certainly you can't argue it is...
The bible itself contradicts a lack of Free Will in Heaven. But you can't have Free Will and not have evil. It's a statistical improbability. You have a point.
This is an actual question. I argue that evil can exist in Heaven.
Lucifer was a pillar of Heaven's community. Lucifer was known as the most beautiful angel until while in heaven he turned against God and raised an army.
God is arguably perfect because he is without evil. Heaven can not be...
