i've already said i'm not 100% for sure in either. I just think aliens sound much more realistic to me than some all powerful being that is supposedly all love but wouldn't stop a single atrocity in history.

quote:

He gave them free will. Along with those that followed them. If a parent raises their children in a perfect environment, and at adulthood that child murders someone, do you blame the parent and call them assholes? Do you say they have a lot to answer for?

right so this free will, it's completely unchecked? God doesn't ever stop someone from doing what they want to make them follow his plan for them?

Those are in contrast.

I think the mistake most make in their arguments, is that they try to relate God to justify their own thoughts, deeds or actions. If one chooses to have faith or believe in God, then they have to surrender the belief, that they come first, and God comes second and must fit their narrative of what He should be.
