1. He is not a troll.
2. You need to look at your own posts which are putting forth things that are NOT in the Bible - as Bible truths.

Ran across this verse yesterday
What more could I have done for my vineyard
That I have not already done?
Why, when I hoped for grapes,
Did it produce only wild grapes?
- Isaiah 5:4
The "I" and the "vineyard" were "Jehovah" and "the Jews" (Isaiah 5:7)
Does it read as if God foreknew the outcome from the very beginning?
No, he "hoped". There would be no hope to have if God foresaw only wild grapes.

Know who you are talking to, by what they say:
The Wheat and the Tares...Matthew 13:36-43
Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field." He answered them, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man, the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one. The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

LOL! Dude! You have written 220 posts, many of them questionable, and have 15 likes.
He has written over 11,470 posts, with 1197 likes. Such speaks for itself.
We know him, and he is not a troll. We do not know you.

You mean when did man define god?
We evolved, and the mythology does not support any aspect of the credible science that explains our origins.

You made statements, - I challenged them, - you replied (without substance,) - so YES!

I have nothing to say to you. You seem to like a challenge. I have no idea how people in your area of the world talk to each other. I do not conceder a discussion a form of challenge.

You are on a debate site. I rebutted what you said. That is debate. And obviously, I'm not the only one rebutting what you are saying.

Don't know why God created man.
But have heard that the one who very seriously run after this question, becomes God thyself at the end, and no more question remains thereafter.

I guess we all aren't as enlightened as you, my friend. We just have a bit of hesitation blindly believing word for word a book written by many imperfect men, who did not even claim to have 1st hand knowledge of events that (supposedly) took place thousands of years ago. Call me crazy, but I'm skeptical.

Off the point of this thread, but the hesitation is one shared by all born agains, for no one is born already born again. The question is the line between healthy skepticism and lack of credulity.

Do you think I've crossed this line? If so, why (specifically) and when (specifically)?

Reality and science and education and knowledge over mythology.

So you claim to know all things?
