I believe in God and am a Christian. I guess you could say the prime mover theory moved me. Also He saved my life and that kind of thing is hard to ignore. Anyway I'm kind of just a humble guy so I don't claim to have all the answers about like why babies suffer or tsunamis happen and stuff but my personal experience is that there's a God that loves me.

XMNN posted:i sort of buy the free will answer to the problem of evil, but there are babies who are born into this world, spend their entire short lives in agonising pain and then die Babies dying in agony can largely be traced back to free will and people being garbage. We can do lots about war, famine, preventable disease, but we dont. As far as children being born with some horrible incurable disease, we could also at least alleviate but medical care is ludicrously expensive/not available in 3rd world backwaters.

God set humans up to disobey his rule. He's omnipresent and omnipotent and manufactured the whole thing. It was all intentional. He knew perfectly well exactly what was going to happen and he's the one who orchestrated it all. What a loving piece of poo poo. God can suck my god damned balls and choke on 'em.

Hey Pick I was raised catholic too, what's your confirmation name? Mine's Thomas Aquinas. I'm actually at the tail end of a years long crisis of faith resulting in me identifying as atheist/agnostic.

Free will is the dumbest answer to the problem of evil. Why should a murderer's will to kill someone outweigh his victim's will not to be murdered? A better answer is that it's not a problem at all - God can just be evil, and if you'll take a look around, I think you'll immediately conclude this is so.

I don't think there's any sort of supernatural aspect to our existence. A couple weeks ago I was walking with a guy who was real excited about minerals leeching from rocks and washing down to the Gulf of Mexico. "Incidentally, that's where we're headed, too; in the fullness of time," he said jovially. Wanna chill with that dude again.

Blazing Ownager posted:After reading several world religions and putting it through a modern understanding of morality.. if there is a God, he's the bad guy. Blazing Ownager posted:Hell most Christians still don't seem to get that God destroys the world. Hell if you re-read the story of Revelations, what is even the crime? The "evil" side comes to Earth and brings us peace on Earth, peace in the middle east even, prosperity on a global scale and more.. God promptly wipes them out for with ludicrously over the top plagues and destroys the whole planet. I don't know if it gets mentioned anywhere in this thread, but there is a line of thought that says 'Yahweh' is actually a petty spirit that horned in on a greater beings creation so it could prop itself up as King poo poo. That's why Yahweh in the old testament is so jealous, arbitrary, and spiteful. This school of thought generally refers to the spirit as the 'Demiurge'. Furthermore, some say the Demiurge matures and realizes that the way he formed the world was totally stupid and bad and made a terrible world he regretted, and that's why he incarnated himself as Christ and sacrificed himself on the cross, to give humanity the chance to redeem itself in his absence (god is literally dead theology).
