GOD IS EVIL OR Not allpowerful

[budzy malone]

Hey, you're the one who is 15. You would be closer to the CREATION and G-D so I suppose you would know. I mean Mick Jagger smoked some pot and made a movie with Ed Anger back in the early sixties and they thought it was evil. It really depends on the crowd you are hanging with.
I mean some guy I was talking to the other day told me that masterbation was the root of all evil. This he told me, after 3,500 times at the flagpole. I always thought it was healthy and very benefitial. Sin is when you include a women in your mind and in your bed.
I wouldn't worry about evil. Pot is not evil, dude.

Masta, you happend to be wrong on both comments.

He's a righteous judge and he's omnipotent and all powerful . I completely disagree with your thoughts. Do you have a problem with the law putting criminals in prison? I don't. You fail to understand that his judgments are righteous. You can call him evil all you like, and I'm sure criminals curse the law as well.

His judgments are righteous? god is in control of everything. tell me whats so righteous about living in poverty and shit like that. Look at this God created satan. He created evil he lets evil run amok. He can stop evil at anytime but he doesn't cuz he doesn't care or doesn't exist. Your god abandoned you? or your god never really existed in the first place.

lol..this is coming from someone who goes by 'Pass the Shit"?! Kinda hypocritical, don't you think?

By the way, it's PASS THAT SHIT and fuck the law imp:

I live by the law of the LORD. I have been freed from the law of sin and death. I was just making a reference to all you that question why God puts people in hell. First of all, none of his children are going to hell. I was just pointing out that the same principle applies here on earth and no one has a problem with it. You follow the law or you go to prison. Same applies with the law of the LORD. If you don't follow his law you will end up in eternal prison. The difference is that the law of the land will not make you righteous and his law will. :thumbsup:

Lack of wisdom and spiritual understanding on your part, doesn't make him unrighteous. Are you saying that you believe that God created evil? Are you saying that you believe that God exists?

lol, like I said in my first post its not my belief, there not my thoughts I just thought it would be an interesting topic. I hope someone of your attitude can grasp the subject of a simple discussion instead of getting into a debate, that I did not want to generate. But there will always be that one person who defends what they think and has to resort to a argument to persuade the other person that they are wrong. Well I cannot be wrong or right considering thats not what I belive in.

So telling me I have lack of wisdom or spirtual understanding, is like telling me I'm already wrong before I'v even chosen a side. but my fellow stoner I ask you to please enlighten me tell me what do you think and I would not want an arguement just a simple explanation on how My topic is untrue or false. Please Enlighten people and show me how much wisdom and spiritual understand your brain holds.

Y'all want to say god gave us free will and he loves us? Here is my question.

Why the hell is there a such thing as evil? If we are "gods children," would he not want the best for us? Since he is all powerful, why are we not living in a utopia?

Either god is an asshole, indifferent, or he doesn't exist. It makes no sense to say he loves us, yet lets us die from aids, cancer, murder, etc. I'm sorry, free will is BS.

Is this just a training period for the afterlife? Than why wouldn't god simply create us in the afterlife. He knows who is going to make it anyway. If we were loved, we would not be subjected to all the pain of this life.

Great Point

hey this thread got me thinking that god likes acid cause reality is fractal.. :smokin:

[suhl]

we did a problem like this in my logic class that is worded better than what he said.

you really messed this up, that paradox is like this.

according to many people's beliefs, god is all knowing all powerful and all good.

god is either not all good, not all knowing, or not all powerful.

because bad things happen. if he were all knowing he would be aware of all the bad things in the world, if he were all good he would fix all the bad things he saw, if he were all powerful hed have the ability.

so, since bad things happen, he either isnt aware of all of them(not all knowing), is aware of them and chooses to ignore some(well lets be honest most) of them (not all good), or he is aware of all of it, wants to do something about it, but cant (not all powerful). there for he is either not one of the three or doesnt exist.

i do not believe in this one way or the other, i dont really think the existence of god and religion is something you can really be sure of one way or the other. sure you c an say you are, but how can you be certain of something you have no proof for. but then how else did the universe get here, im familiar with the big bang theory, but what caused that? so i believe in some higher power, but i think the rest of organized religion is bullshit. my point is i dont see how we can have devout atheists or devout christians.

now that said, i hope none of the people posting here are the same people that when defending weed say god put it here for a reason so it must be good. based on what ive read ill assume they are not those types. well bringing religion, something that cannot be proven, into any serious argument is a bad point either way

God simply lets us choose what we (mankind) prefer. If you prefer evil, then he allows it, and if you prefer good, he allows that aslo. Choice is key, and we determine our own fate, and submit to our own desires. He's really a cool cat, but our actions have consequences. Be they here on earth, (Which is what I suspect) or be them in an afterlife (Which I doubt)

He lets us choose w/o making us do a damn thing! (Now thats parenting, haha!) Its almost like he doesn't exist at all...

We're in control being the dominant species on earth, which is why man has made laws to govern civilized society.

Much Love,
