evil

    Here is an interesting article about perhaps why God allows evil to exist

    Why would somebody willingly become a Satanist?

    Satan tempted Jesus to eat rocks. That is what a 3-year old tries to do to their parents. Like what kind of mindset do Satanists have? I just don't see it. Why do Satanists believe that Satan is better in their view to God? Why do many, but not all, Satanists get absurd amounts of tattoos and...

    Is "Cruelty" Ever Justified?

    Cruelty - callous indifference to or pleasure in causing pain and suffering. History has been marred with many cruel acts. Scientists believe that there were battles fought by Neanderthals, which lasted 100,000 years, where heads were bashed in with clubs, and where javelins pierced body...

    Atheists are not religiously educated

    DISCLAIMER: I did not say that all atheists had no religious education. So, do not ban me this time, please. Atheists claim that there is neither Absolute Good nor Evil. But it is absurd; if there is no perfect good, it is evil. And if there is no evil, it is ideal good. Christians, Mary...

    The satan is evil. But is he Absolute Evil?

    The satan is the evilest thing today. If satan is the worst thing ever possible (even in the future), why did he not tempted Jesus Christ with ideas of Atheism, panspermia, change of sex, abortion, euthanasia, marihuana, and Darwin's Evolution? The fall. The endless fall. The satan is falling...

    How can evil exist if God is omnipotent? And how can free will exist if God is omniscient?

    Title. How can evil exist if God is omnipotent? And how can free will exist if God is omniscient? My thoughts: God created evil, which is why it exist. Free will doesn't exist because god is all powerful. What are your thoughts?

    Problem of Evil

    A skeptic usually says: "the possibility of God existing remains open." It is an understandable situation because we do not live in Paradise yet. This means, that there is satan. The satan was not created by God of Love, because only Holy Lucifer was created by Love, but lost the gift and Right...

    Absence of good in atheism

    Good Vs. Evil, Truth Vs. Lie, are religious terms. Thus, an atheist has become free from these old traditional ways of thinking. Atheist: "there are very Good atheists." So, now we all agree, that there is Absolute Evil and Absolute Good in this world? Atheist: "No, we don't." So, there is...

    Getting better every decade?

    Me: "In how many years will people get better? Definition: getting closer to God than satan is to become better." Satanist: "Why did you decide that God is a positive character ??? Have you read the Bible ??? Genocide, murder - this is all from His business. If the Devil exists, then I am on...

    Unconditional love discussed in Israel

    Check out this Israeli orthodox jew and Dutch new immigrant in Israel discussing the Lord's unconditional love for all humanity. Even with Him creating evil (Isaiah 45:7). Also, some conspiracy theories are mentioned concerning zionism and a pagan star and the star of David(Amos 5:25-27). Real...

    Are You Right?

    Consider religion, politics, philosophy, morals, ethics, or whatever. How do you know you are right and another is wrong? Is there truly a right or a wrong? Or are right and wrong merely human constructs to assert perspective? Thoughts?

    Evil Spirits/Entities

    Do evil spirits or other evil entities exist in your religion or belief structure? Do your religion or belief structure incorporate some sort of ritual or practice such as chalking the door? If so, what does that ritual or practice consist of and how does it work?

    Why Does God Permit Evil?

    What does the Bible have to say on this subject? Some say if God existed, he would put an end to the suffering we see in the world. Others say that there is evidence God exists, and there is a reason why God permits suffering. I want to get some input on the Biblical view on why the God of the...

    Why do Christians defend the horrendously brutal and genocidal God of the Old Testament?

    The god of the Old Testament is evil depraved and vicious demanding complete subjugation. Why do Christians even attempt to defend this, and then further say God is always good and righteous when in fact much of the Old Testament is choc full of God's actions and deeds that point to the...

    Do Parents Have To Teach Their Children To Be Bad?

    The whole God and Evil thing with God.

    Whenever I've tried to think about God as all loving or just a God guy/gal I find it rather difficult. The biggest problem with someone being omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent is that it makes it impossible for said being to escape blame for literally everything. Any wrong doing was...

    Why Did God Create Man?

    God created man for two reasons: (1) So that man would become the living temple of God. (2) To prove evil does not work. I could also ask: why did God create Satan? Let's start with that. Apparently not everything was copacetic in heaven: there were wars going on, Satan was accusing others...

    How do we know god is good, and satan is evil?

    Im new and i follow no religion, but i do like a good debate without prejudice. Because I'll state it now. No one truly knows if any of it is real or not. So to me there are no wrong or right or for that matter no DEFINITIVE answers at all on the religious discussings, pertaining to being real...
