This world is full of shit, suffering and despair, sons of bitches and psychopaths. Why did God create us and release us into this hell? If he is omnipotent, he could come down and fix everything and turn this shitty world into a utopia and a paradise, but he just watch and probably laugh at us. Why? WHY?
>>511273025 (OP)Yeah. I feel bad for those who can't talk to him. He's right there, literally just sit in a room without distractions and pray lmao
God created you for the Garden. You were supposed to be His right hand man and reign in Eden forever but you (Adam) fucked it up and now as a result you exist here on earth with all its all flaws. The reason you suffer here in this world is because you were not made for this world.
>>511273025 (OP)Some interesting videos out of Ukraine. Did you see the drone kill that chased him around the tank and when he exploded the smoke looked like a person that kept running.

>>511273025 (OP)So, the question you need to ask and seek an answer to is why Jesus had to overcome the world he supposedly created? What does that say about the nature of Time and reality? So for all your suffering, even Spanish suffering, might just be a created thing to help you grow into something worth God's friendship and Time or you can whine on the Internet and get tossed when you fail to provide any type of fruit. Jesus sacrificed Himself and was tempted by offers even the most retarded communist would salivate over in a world He created. Why? If you can figure this out, you will never taste death or Spanish discomfort ever again.

>>511273025 (OP)i've never really "got" the "problem of suffering"
if you're a Christian, you know why there's suffering and the fact that there's redemption in it for you and the world.
if you're an atheist, when you're suffering is when God is the most apprehendable.
people don't typically look for meaning and God when they're surrounded by pleasure.

Ukrainian drone footage is the best illustration for your thesis.
As for the answer, I honestly dunno. I wish there was God, but in my whole life I haven't witnessed anything supernatural while seen enough of suffering, not just human, but overall.
I know that chrisitans have all this talk about theodicy and so on. Not sure if it's convincing though.
But: if apocalypse is to come, I wish it comes sooner.

>>511273025 (OP)Why don't you think about it for a bit and realize a utopia is even worse than a dystopia. This world is the price of free will, like it or not. Its very likely you agreed to reincarnate into this world, let that sink in. Suffering allows for growth, without it there is only stagnation, which is worse than death.

And before any of you Christians start harping on me. I was raised Roman Catholic and confirmed as well. Went to catechism and everything. Only did it for my folks though never believed the fucking word of it. Now that I'm older and have read on the history of how Christianity was invented I knew I was right.
Also could you imagine being in eternity? I mean you die and you wake up in heaven or hell or whatever. You're there for eternity. Fucking eternity you can't wrap your head around that nobody can. Our brain cannot grasp eternity nor Infiniti
Unfortunately there is no God, but if you can muster up belief in a religious system, it will guide your life better than atheism ever could. Although I am an atheist, all that atheism has ever produced is terrible. Humans without guiding philosophy are higher IQ animals behaving animalistically, religion tries to move us towards something.
However, God is just not true, but as I said if you can believe in God, do it because it's way better than being an atheist.
Using just faith and the KJV Bible it's possible to transform this "shit world" in heaven on earth.
All you gotta do is realize that everything that is is God's intention and he knows better than you.
Once you accept that and the fact that Jesus said heaven was internal not external, you realize you were always in heaven and all suffering ceases.
Permanently.
God the concept exists, but not in a way we can comprehend in this stage of evolutionary consciousness. Both the Sasquatch people and extraterrestrials -- who are far superior to us categorically anatomically modern human idiots -- have asserted the notion of a God.

>>511273025 (OP)i believe that this world, on the individual soul level, is something like a harry potter school for souls to develop their qualities, grow by overcoming obstacles, and ultimately get closer to God.
on the macro level, if i had to guess, Earth is something like a game board with a game being played on it by much larger archetypal forces (personified in mythology by gods or symbols, like light and darkness, good and evil) which might be extraterrestrial, interdimensional in character (or both)
suffering serves a purpose, anon. nothing is meaningless. it's all symbols. the people who try and tell you it's meaningless are the ones trying to win by lying, because their belief system and spirituality is inverted- they say that lying to win isn't a bad thing.
try to be kind to others, build the world you want to live in, overcome the psychopaths, alleviate the suffering of others, spread Light. keep your head up. this world is not our real home, it's just a place we come to test ourselves, and grow in the process.
i recommend reading the work of Dr Michael Newton, Dr Brian Weiss, Dr Melvin Morse, Dr Rick Moody, Dr Ian Stevenson, anything about near death experiences or past life regression therapy for more. My favorite is "Journey of Souls" by Dr Michael Newton, personally.

>not through coercion, Ridiculous argument. By your logic a man putting a gun to your head and asking for all your money or he'll shoot isn't 'coercing' you either. And the guy with a gun to your head is only threatening to kill you, not threatening to torture you for all eternity.

>>511275720God doesn't create free creatures. He places extreme constraints on you; race/gender/sexuality/country of birth/IQ/upbringing, never mind us being stuck on this planet and you have an extremely limited choice as to what you can even do in your life.
If God wanted souls to experience free will, why not let us entirely choose and be conscious of that choice? Is it that we humans made all this up to enforce moral systems and that simple explanation made sense, until it didn't?
So much of our lives is chosen for us like 99% and then within that small amount we do choose, we can ruin our lives with a few bad small choices? So then we have to suffer for eternity for that 1% choice? Oh never mind, we can then make a .00001% choice saying a specific God exists and this grants us a perfect existence forever.
So basically:
We get no choice
With the limited choice we get, we can ruin our lives
And if we don't believe in God, we have to suffer for that 1% we did choose
Not rational or logical like you'd expect a God to be, oh and of course God doesn't need to prove himself to us or anything. Surely that is somehow a good idea to doom billions to eternal hell because he wants to sit around and do nothing while we suffer in life and then suffer forever. OR we just made these things up to help us cope with life and enforce morality.
>>511276329i don't like that framing, usually it's delivered from holier-than-thou people who are trying to project an air of wisdom and often have never really had that hard of a time in this life. i mean try and tell a homeless single mom with a history of trauma and abuse that suffering isn't real, while you are sitting in an air conditioned car. you get what i mean.
i understand what you're saying, though, and generally agree- i would frame it as "this material world is not our true home, our physical body is just a vehicle for our soul, and we each individually chose to come here to experience hardship and dense material reality and try to overcome challenges to help our souls develop"
>>511276531I dedicated much of my life to being the best person I could be, sowing as much good as I could, it never returned to me.

>>511273025 (OP)Read the Bible. I mean really read it. Then draw your conclusions. Long story short, God created free will (kind of like how humans created AI). Free will needs a check/balance in order to exist. That check/balance is what came to be called sin/evil. As as everything is balanced, there is can be joy, beauty, love, humanity. An angel takes sin and becomes Satan. Satan gives sin to man and man becomes us. God declares the bloodline covenant of the Messiah to bring back balance. Satan is cast out of heaven around the early 1900s and he decides to rule over it, plunging the earth into greater evil and suffering with what little time he has left before Armageddon.

all the literature on the topic, from NDE's/thanatology/regression therapy, indicates that humans actually work with their "spirit guides"/higher selves to choose life situations prior to incarnating which will give them the chance to work on specific issues, often incarnating with people they have lived with before

the mere use of a justification by dictators doesn't automatically discredit it. any idea, even ones grounded in truth or ethics can be twisted for evil eneds. dictators justify atrocities based on control and dominance, the Christian narrative emphasizes love and freedom, not manipulation and authoritarianism.
>human sacrifice is immoralit's not a human forced into sacrifice, it's God choosing to suffer out of love. this is self-sacrifice, not imposed violence.
the cross is not a transactional blood ritual, it's the ultimate voluntary gift to restore a broken relationship between God and humanity.
>coercioncoercion implies limited free choice through overwhelming threat. my view is that hell is not a divine threat but the logical consequence of freely chosen separation from God. the "man with the gun" analogy fails because God isn't robbing you, he's offering you what you already lack, eternal joy. you can say no, even knowing the consequences. the idea isn't "torture" as punishment, it's estrangement from source-of-goodness, which results in eternal separation. whether one sees that as torment or simply loss depends on their theological framework.

Yes He is. And what you describe is the consequence of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden apple, the knowledge of good and evil, which only God is able to properly comprehend and process. So this world has a mixture of good and evil. But Christ redeemed us of our sin, so that those who embrace Him can be a part of his eternal kingdom in the afterlife.

>>511273025 (OP)>Is God real? Yeah me, next question?
>>511276635yes, race, gender, geography and innate traits shape our experiences, but don't negate freedom. they define the context of choice, not the absence.
constraints make choices meaningful. if we were all identical in a frictionless utopia, what would "freedom" even signify?
radical freedom sounds great but lacks coherence. choosing your own IQ or gender before birth presupposes a conscious agent that exists outside of spacetime, something that's metaphysically thorny. some limitations are necessary to ground moral agency in a coherent reality.
life's moral weight ties precisely in its unpredictability. the fact that choices can shape eternity makes them precious. the "unfairness" of moral consequences isn't unique to religion, even secular justice systems punish based on momentary decisions, the stakes just get cosmic here.
hell isn't an imposed torment, it's a chosen separation. if someone persistently rejects God, even when fully informed, God respects that autonomy.

>>511277642Hello, Satanon.
>>511277132>it's not a human forced into sacrifice, it's God choosing to suffer out of love. this is self-sacrifice, not imposed violence.I'm aware of the allegorical implications of the story but that isn't what believers usually interpret it as.
Human sacrifice is immoral even if the participant is willing. And more so, it's immoral in a 2nd way because the idea of sacrificing a human to rid yourself of crime doesn't make any sense. It's the same idea as a scapegoat.
If you murder someone and say 'ah, but I've passed my sins onto this goat that I'm sending into the desert to die' that doesn't make you any less of a murderer nor does it make your crime, or 'sin' removed from you.
In fact there is no way to rid yourself of a crime. You can apologize for it and really mean it, and in some cases the person you've wronged might accept your apology but that still doesn't mean you never did it. It's there forever just like all our decisions are because we can't go back in time and undo them.
>coercion implies limited free choice through overwhelming threat.Right, and you can't get much more overwhelming of a threat than infinite punishment for finite crimes.
>the idea isn't "torture" as punishmentYou're talking about a system that God created. The way this is set up is his doing from the get go. You don't get to be the creator of the universe and everything in it and then say 'well this system where you get tortured forever for not believing in this one religion isn't coercion because it's just the way the cookie crumbles'.
I'd also say it's a deeply immoral teaching because it terrifies children, and terrifies a lot of adults too for good reason. You can talk about the offer but the bottom line is you're being given two choices, eternal torture or 'go by the book'. That's a terrifying choice and like having a gun to your head.

>idea isn't "torture" as punishment, it's estrangement from source-of-goodness, which results in eternal separationRight, and that in itself is an unfair system because you know there's a lot of overall good people who believe in other religions or don't believe in any, and there's a lot of religious people who have done some terrible things.
Given that everyone knows that's true, it's fair to say basing being in touch or estranged from the 'source of all goodness' as based on belief in one religion is an arbitrary way to do it. That means a lot of nice people are getting tortured forever meanwhile a lot of shitty people, or even borderline shitty people aren't.
And as some other anon said, God already knows what we're all going to do. He knows before you were born if you're going to grow up a believer or not so he's 'allowing' you to go to eternal torture. (Which in itself creates deterministic issues but that's another discussion)
>>511277710They really do if you stop and think about it. But if you want to dismiss it, sure they don't.
Except if one is positing that God exists because we can choose things, they should show that the free will God created is perfect, far from it. It's a total nightmare for a good chunk of humanity, in the sort of way that would happen if there was no God and then some hairy apes tried to explain it if there was.
That's another thing "fully informed," why does God not fully inform us then? God would clearly save billions more if he was active in our world and didn't just watch like a cuck as life degrades because the little retards he created are little retards.
God didn't maximize or even come close to maximizing our free will/expression, just the opposite really
God doesn't try to fully inform us to the point where religions have to explain away other religions by saying things like "yeah all non believers go to hell BUT it's up to God" (because the idea sounds so crazy to punish people who had no choice, but it's what we came up with and nobody stress tested the system like we do now)
God creates these extremely flawed beings who fail their first and simplest test, instead of realizing that raising retards is hard, God just gives up and kicks out the retards, your average human with retarded children does a better job of caring for them than God does for humanity as a whole
So, you're GOD. I'm GOD. Everything around you is GOD. There is nothing separate from GOD or else GOD couldn't be GOD. If you haven't realized this yet, it's because the entire system is much more sinister than you think, and has purposefully kept this information from you because it wouldn't make a very few select people money.
Sit with it for a while if you think I'm joking or not being serious, then sit with it some more. You CAN talk to GOD. Everything good and bad is GOD. Every single religion points to it, all forms of spirituality point to it, all the media you consume points to it. You'll begin to laugh, and cry, and laugh some more (and cry some more) when you start "waking up" and realizing the little synchronicities and signs that show you this is the truth, and that's all it is, and all it ever has been.
There's a lot more. A year ago, maybe two, on /x/ (prior to having to wait to post), there was a large group piecing many things together that eventually got enough people pissed off that caused the waiting period to be enacted. Rapid fire posts of people realizing the truth and spreading it was not beneficial for their plans. A lot of folks left /x/ after that, including myself.
There's a lot more to this. Outside of 4chan, plenty of people are coming to this understanding themselves (whether they know it yet or not). People are "waking up" so to say, which is the second coming of Christ, or of "knowledge".
So, there's the actual, functional spiritual side of things, and then there's the, "Why more people don't know." Earthly side of things- the "story" or "plot" so to speak. It's a lot more noticeable now thanks to how actively crazy Israel has become, but it does have to do with the Zionists (and the spiritual groups behind them, and the spiritual groups behind those groups).

I caught some when I was younger and their tails would be twice their body size. One was 2 feet long total.
They're bitey at first, but also pretty smart so they calm down after a couple days and are really friendly once they get used to you. Fun pets. Actually like interaction with their owners. The tails are prehensile and they might hang from your arm when playing with them, just be careful.

>>511277906you say human sacrifice is immoral even if voluntary, but what do you mean by "immoral?"
is it immoral to give one's life for another in wartime or for a loved one? we rightly admire someone who jumps in front of a bullet for a loved one. why would a divine act of voluntary sacrifice be viewed as immoral? there is a difference between sacrificial love and ritualistic appeasement. the Christian view aligns with the former.
your "scapegoat" analogy presupposes that guilt cannot be relationally or ontologically addressed. but Christianity posits a divine being who absorbs the moral weight of sin, not merely symbolically transfers it.
you liken hell to coercion, but coercion implies lack of choice. the choice here isn't about arbitrary rules but relationship, with the divine source of goodness. eternal separation isn't imposed by force but flows from a free rejection of that source. a loving God respects that freedom, even when it leads to painful consequences.
the existence of hell is troubling, yet. but if God is the locus of goodness, joy and life itself, then to reject God is to reject the very conditions of flourishing. hell isn't divine spite, it's the logical outworking of a life turned inward, sealed from grace.
dictators manipulate and coerce for personal gain. the Christian narrative depicts a God who empties himself, suffers, and dies to offer rescue. that's not tyranny, it's kenotic love. power is wielded here not to dominate but to serve.
>>511277982"Reap what you sow"
Turns into "WELL LIFE IS HARD." Fun fact even in the Job story, Job gets back DOUBLE what he had after enduring a few years of hardship, not a lifetime of it, that was AFTER he had a good life. Two things that never happened to me; having a good life or then losing it and getting double. It was varying degrees of bad that became alright for a bit and then everything good got destroyed and is dead forever.
God's big reason for creating us is to give us free will. Problem; our free will is extremely limited in ways us idiotic humans could easily envision better designs.
The stories in these religions are entirely non verifiable. God could upload a video on youtube of them happening and convert billions overnight, he doesn't in the way that would happen if there was no God and we just made these things up.
God's lack of intervention at all is exactly what we'd expect if there was no God, not 1.God creates retards 2.Retards behave like retards 3.Instead of God accepting and caring for his retards, he tells them to go figure it out on their own, soething that us humans don't even do to their own offspring (if retarded)
>>511278449>>511277132>whether one sees that as torment or simply loss depends on their theological framework.Right, which ends up getting kind of similar to other religion's ideas. Some people say this fits into the idea of reincarnation where in each life you progress from the last in some way.
>>511278449>Right, and that in itself is an unfair system because... good people of other faiths...yeah, goodness matters. and Christianity doesn't deny that.
but it doesn't reduce salvation to moral resume either. Christianity centers less on moral performance and more on relational orientation, whether a person genuinely seeks truth, goodness, and the divine source of it all. it's not a belief in a religion that determins proximity to God, but whether one ultimately chooses God, however faintly or obscurely that choice manifests.
>The system is arbitrary... nice people punished, bad people rewarded...but here's the philosophical turn, if God is the source of all goodness, then eternal life is union with that source, not a reward for being nice, but a restoration of communion. separation isn't punishment in the punitive sense, it's the natural consequence of choosing autonomy over grace. there's no exclusion based on religious label, the deeper question is "do you choose the light when it's offered?"
>God already knows what we’ll do.. sounds deterministic...alvin plantinga has a whole argument on this, called the "free will defense" where he distinguishes foreknowledge from determinism. knowing what someone freely chooses isn't the same as causing that choice. divine omniscience doesn't override autonomy, it reflects a timeless awareness, not a coercive plan. God doesn't trap anyone into hell, He permits the freedom that makes love and moral agency possible, even when that freedom leads tragically away from Him.

>>511279823i'd narrow the scope to the Christian worldview in particular.
the greatest of our saints didn't get "good results," they died in agony. peter was crucified upside down, paul was beheaded, james was stoned and thrown off a building and clubbed to death (in some order). the Bible's heroes often lost everything with heaven as their only hope.
you're right that many people peddle a "prosperity gospel" but that's a modern distortion. Christianity has always been about carrying a cross, not cashing in karma. if your standard for rejecting theism in general is "i wasn't rewarded" you're holding God to a deal He never promised.
>>511278108You are a "slave" to your empirical character, to your inner tendencies and inclinations. And you can't choose it, you acquire it with everything else in existence. It's innate.

Serious question-are most of you suffering that much?
I've been sick for about 2 and a half years, I have a doctor's appointment in a week about some horrible shit in my throat and esophagus; probably not good news. It's like I'm imprisoned inside my body, but I've never been closer to God like I am today.
Before this, I was pretty anxious and depressed, but it wasn't that bad. I'm just grateful that I was ever alive, that I got to experienc this world through my own eyes. I was never worthy, but the light still shone my way if for a moment in time.
>>511280374Or we could just be making that up as a means of encouraging good behavior and discouraging bad behavior. Hence why there are all sorts of inconsistencies about it that are not at all explained; horrendous people getting in, good people going to hell, God providing no proof of it.
God could provide proof this very second and save billions by uploading a video showing hell/heaven, he doesn't which dooms the retards he created to eternal suffering after they suffer a good deal here on earth. Does that sound perfect and logical to you?
Nah that's in the bible, it's just the whole thing isn't very consistent so you can always dismiss parts of it. "Oh reap what you sow doesn't always work (except when we tell you it does."
Personally I can't even conceptualize heaven because I don't want to see anyone again or do anything, I just want to not exist. Of course most humans don't feel that way so heaven is an idea that brings them comfort, hope and pushes them to good behavior/away from bad behavior. Aka something we'd make up considering it yields good results and it could potentially be true (despite no evidence).
>>511273025 (OP)You don't care about any of this. The bible has the answers, but you hate God and don't want anything to do with the truth.

>>511280785if religion were purely a social tool, why would its founders invent stories that got them tortured and killed? peter didn't benefit from being crucified upside down, he died insisting he'd seen a resurrected Jesus. liars make up comfortable lies, not "follow me and you'll be flayed alive." that doesn't prove Christianity is true, but it undermines the "it's just behavioral programming" argument.
you're demanding God act like a lab experiement, "upload the video or you're fake." but if God's goal is a relationship (not coercion), proof would eliminate faith, and with it, free will. imagine if hell/heaven were proven like gravity, you'd believe out of terror, not love. that's not a relationship, it's divine blackmail.
the counterargument is weak, it's a different paradigm. you're judging a system designed for meaningful choice by standards that would destroy choice itself.
you're right that Christians often cherry pick, but that's a human flaw, not a Bible flaw. the "reap what you sow" principle is consistent if you read it in context. it's about spiritual consequences (Galatians 6:8), not karma. meanwhile, Jesus explicitly says "many who are first will be last" (Matthew 19:30) undercutting any prosperity gospel.
the real issue isn't inconsistency in the text, but inconsistency in how people misuse it.
your rejecting heaven because you can't conceptualize wanting it, but that's like a blind man rejecting color. your despair is valid, but doesn't disprove a reality beyond your current desires. as for "we'd make it it up because it's useful" that's the marx/freud critique, but it's a genetic fallacy.
whether an idea comforts people have no bearing on its veracity. gravity isn't false because it's scary or true because it's useful. the question is "does it align with reality" and that brings us back to evidence, like the martyrdom you're dismissing as made up.
>>511280785>can't even conceptualize heavenYou're not meant to understand God in His entirety. Trying to gain foothold over God was the first deception that made us fall and live in sin and now we carry the burden in today's time.
Fortunately we are saved in faith in Him alone and that Jesus Christ son of man as said by John 3 16, died for us. Our God created everything with free will as part of His love. Those not of His love make themselves seen and known.
>>511281315Because they believed it. It caught on because it was effective at behavioral programming not because the founders set out that way.
No I'm asking for a modicum of proof, there is infinite degeneracy/negativity in the world (which God allows), I think for God to upload something small which shouldn't be hard is not a crazy expectation. I think it's so simple and such a good point that it just has to be dismissed.
"Why shouldn't God do something simple to show he exists and save billions?" Oh God doesn't have to conform to your worldview
"Why doesn't God intervene in a country like North Korea which is literal hell on earth, show his might and thus convert billions?" Uh uh, he doesn't need to!!!
Basically God doesn't need to do 1 insignificant (for him) action to prove his worth but humans need a lifetime of actions or enduring a lifetime of suffering for him? And WE are the "bad ones?"
Except God doesn't clarify the dogma hence a trillion schisms exist, God COULD clarify, he doesn't, thus damning many people. God owes nothing to us after he made us as retards LOL, cmon bro.
Nah that's not what I mean, a blind man has never seen color, I've seen concepts that would be included in heaven, not really much but a very small experience in some good things. I'm talking about heaven as outlined, I personally don't want to see anyone again or do anything, but I get why people would believe in it because most are not like that (defeated).
God could prove himself. He chooses not to.
God could uplift the world in a massive way in any second. He chooses not to.
God admits we are retards that fail the simplest thing, he then allows the most evil thing in existence (satan) to torture us here on earth.
None of these things are remotely close to a perfect God and this basic logic is something anybody could accept. If you had retarded children (like God created us), you wouldn't leave them on Epstein's island (like God does here on earth with Satan).

Honestly you underestimate how merciful and loving God is. You "pay" for your sins here on Earth in the sense that if you keep sinning it will destroy you from the inside.

>God made retardsChristianity agrees that humans are flawed, that's the whole point of the Cross. if we were competent, we wouldn't need a savior. your outrage assumes we deserve better, but why? if God doesn't exist, "flaws" are just nature's indifference. your anger implies a standard of justice beyond nature. where's that coming from?
>God lets satan torture ussatan's power is limited (Job 1:12, Luke 22:31). evil exists because free will exists.
you're assuming a world with free will but no evil is possible, but even atheist philosophers like JL Mackey concede this fails logically. alvin plantinga proved it rigorously, if creatures have genuine freedom, some will choose evil in any possible world (transworld depravity)
God could've made puppets or robots, but not free beings who guarantee zero suffering. your objection isn't with Christianity, it's with modal logic.
this is why atheist critiques now focus on the experiential or evidential (not logical) problem of evil.
the real shouldn't be "why does evil exist" but "does evil matter?"
only theism explains why your outrage at suffering isn't just chemical noise.

>>511284278We are flawed from inception, it's not like in the Christian mythos our flaw even took any time, we were basically retarded a few days in, what kind of smart God would create that?
Maybe we're just higher IQ animals and God doesn't exist because his very own "perfect design" is immediately faulty.
I've already proven we don't choose 99% of our life when you evaluate our gender/race/height/family/country/IQ etc, our "free will" is extremely limited when you conceptualize all that we could be free in. So this idea that reality is somehow built around free will is also wrong, we are extremely constrained, so much so that the vast majority of our life is chosen for us.
Again, inconsistent with a perfect/logical God, consistent with no God and us just being higher IQ animals making up these ideas of God.
Even within your concept of free will, it's so fraught with problems it's crazy:
1.Christianity didn't exist for billions of humans, why deprive them of the truth/morally superior way of being?
2.One's individual free will is extremely limited and some people's can be totally limited by the country/time period they are born into
All of this is consistent with a shit/random system, not a perfect system designed by a perfect God.
Ultimately God decided to create us as retards (he knew we wouldn't be able to be NOT stupid for a few days), he then decided to let Satan torture said retards all the while he does nothing.
OR we just made up these stories to cope with the brutal nature of reality and transmit morality.....I'll let you decide.

>>511284827>immediate flaws in creationyour objection assumes perfection means no possibility of failure, but that's not love, that's programming. a "perfect" parent doesn't raise robots who can't disobey, but children who can choose love. the Genesis story makes this exact point, real relationship requires the freedom to walk away.
>limited free willyou're confusing circumstances with choices, that we don't choose our DNA or birthplace doesn't negate moral agency, it frames it.
a prisoner has limited options but real moral choices, your argument is like saying "this prisoner didn't choose his cell, therefore his decision to share his bread isn't free"
>historical access to ChristianityChristianity claims God judges based on available light (Romans 2:12-16). the thief on the cross was saved without knowing theology. your objection assumes God is bound by human timelines, but if He exists He's equally present to all people across history in ways we can't perceive.

Reminder that there tares and wheat.
Yes god is real but "it" exists in the spiritual world. This world was created by the demiurge or "worksman of matter" the demiurge is an inferior being and thus his creation is flawed and full of evil and suffering.
The demiurge is the petty jealous wrathful god of the OT. He created henchmen called archons or "rulers" who keep souls trapped reincarnating here and they feed off of the negative energy, the earth is a farm for these interdimensional beings where they pull the strings to increase yield in negative emotions such as wars, famine and disease.
It has to have some good in it to keep the beings invested into it, the matrix series sort of hints at this, if the world were a total hellscape of only negative, the souls would just rope on arrival, so they need some good to keep people "playing" here.
The spirit world exists in a singularity called the pleroma or "fullness", it is basically like platos world of perfect forms, where the perfect archetypes or blueprints for everything exist. you travel to your own singularity spirit world when you dream.
Spirit is superior to matter.

>>511273025 (OP)>/pol/ is full of shit, suffering and despair, sons of bitches and psychopaths. Why did God create us and release us into this board?stay. And the answer is free will. No one makes you come here. Maybe take a break and things will fall into perspective. Among other things, this place is poison.
>>511273025 (OP)I think there is a Prime Mover, and He has a personality, but I don't think He is like mainstream religions portray Him, a righteous Judge? I don't think so, just look at the buffoons here writing something along the line of "have fun burning in hell for not believing in God", most of them can't even see what a contradiction they are, although some are willing to recognize they are scared shitless about their portrayal of God existing.
No, instead I can see a God who is like us in the sense He loves tales, He has filled nothingness with us and our tales, big and small tales, happy and sad tales, for me this is what makes sense, what doesn't offend my reason, my faith or my dignity, on the contrary, even my pain and suffering has a purpose, maybe I am just a puppet, but one which was worth the act of creation.
We set objectives, we give God a good show, maybe we can be kind to each other while doing so? We still have plenty of sagas to give Him.
>>511286200Mythical Chaos and entropic chaos may appear to be opposites, but they’re two phases of the same cosmic polarity:
>mythical Chaos: before form, infinite beginnings, womb of Cosmos>entropic chaos: after form, infinite endings, tomb of CosmosChaos is both the beginning and end of all order. It is:
>pre form: potential not shaped>post form: structure dissolved into noiseEntropy is not opposed to infinite possibility, but is rather one mode of it: possibility without useful structure.
Entropy is a drift from complex, constrained possibilities toward all-inclusive, undifferentiated randomness: a return to the lowest information state which paradoxically contains every possibility.
Chaos = infinity before form (creative, potential)
Entropy = infinity after form (dissolution, death, dispersion)
Entropy removes Logos (form, ratio, articulation) from Chaos.
It’s a return to the "dark waters" from which Cosmos originally arose.
Logos then, is what mediates between them: forming, maintaining, and one day reweaving structure out of entropy.

you expect God to parent like you do, but that proves my point. your outrage only makes sense if God exists.
2: you parent because you're not omnipotent.
you can't give your kids true freedom and guarantee safety.
God faces no such limit, He can allow freedom and redeem suffering (via the Cross)
you're judging an all-powerful being by human constraints. that's the semantic error.
3: you assume absence = nonexistence, but gravity was "absent" from human understanding for millennia, yet real. God's hiddenness is necessary for meaningful faith. see point 1.

>>511286665Who?
In the oldest creation myth, the sumeranian epic, there are many elohim, they are "those who descended from the sky" there are two brother elohim, enki and enlil, enlil was given rule over earth, the elohim got tired of doing labor and decided to create humans.
After some time, enlil wanted to eradicate humans, enki his brother stepped in and warned the Noah figure to build and ark, then enlil flooded the earth.
Enki was pro humanity and wanted humans to be free, while enlil wanted humans either enslaved or wiped out.
This has a lot of parallels with the Greek creation myth with Zeus being enlil and enki being prometheus, with the Jewish story, its harder to draw direct parallels because the ot does not talk about lucifer / satan very much, and it never directly confirms or denies if the serpent in eden was lucifer/ satan.
The OT was heavily edited and there are grammatical errors left mainly relating to grammar for the term elohim (god in hebrew). The OT was edited to create a story of a monotheistic god, when the original had plural beings,
>thou shall have no OTHER gods before me doesnt make sense in a monotheistic context, also in the OT story moses' other family members have their own separate elohim before Moses convinces them to only obey yahweh
>>511286887>Gnosticism has the best answer for the problem of evil, Christians are still unable to solve it millenia later, its because their description of god creates an illogical paradox.outside of internet atheism, the logical formulation of the problem of evil is dead, finito, caput.
all atheist scholars acknowledge this.
the biggest name in a atheism right now that dawkins has fallen into irrelevancy is cosmicskeptic, and his bread and butter is the "evidential argument from gratuitous animal suffering" since the logical problem of evil doesn't work anymore.
and how does gnosticism even fix it, what sort of gnosticism are you even shilling? there's like 90 different wholly mutually exclusive gnosticisms with radically different narratives and characters, rarely with overlapping motifs.
the one i was most familiar with was something like

>>511273025 (OP)The impulse that you have which asks 'why bad stuff??' is God, or at least your connection to Him
don't worry about dumb words like omnipotent and omniscient, these words come from the human perspective of life.
If we were space dust, we would not bother ourselves with this question. nothing godless can experience the dilemma of good versus bad. if the universe is orderless, then it's impossible for anything (such as consciousness) to be a glitch against any prevailing order.
anyway keep striving. you will get there, God-kun
>>511287834>Who?God. The guy you were talking about.
>>511287098Christians believe that god has to have the attribute of omnibenevolent, which creates big problems when evil is brought into this context. Christians need god to be personal and involving himself with individuals and his creation.
If you describe god only as the source of being and foundation of existence, it makes a perfectly logical god, god is simply the totality of all existence or the glue that binds everything. In this context god cant be good or evil, because if everything is ultimately god, there is no one being harmed, existence is simply god playing with itself by making cool shit and cool experiences

>>511288377omni - all
bene - good
volent - will
all the things that God wills are good.
God made creation with goodness in mind, an extension of His own nature. Evil isn't something God authored, it's the distortion or rejection of good by created being with free will.
because God is omnibenevolent, His intentions is always love, always redemption, always restoration.
If God were the only foundation of existence, detached and neutral, then suffering would have no moral weight, just another ripple in the fabric.
but the Christian view insists God is not neutral. He is personally invested in His creation. He suffers with us, redeems through us, and ultimately seeks communion with us.
So while evil exists, it does not undo God's goodness. if anything, it frames it, it gives it depth. the Cross is the clearest evidence, God does not stay aloof from pain, but enters into it to transform it.

>>511273025 (OP)>Why did God create us and release us into this hell?He created Spain and Spaniards as amusement for those who believe in him
>>511289252The way that I see it is, Hes allowing Satan his rule over the earth for a time, to give people who have turned away from him a chance to find him again. He knows our pride is so strong that it would take so much pain to change our hearts but he also knows this pain will not ultimately destroy us. Basically god loves us and is giving us chemo therapy in an attempt to wake up the consciousness of Christians and good men. When things are good people get lazy and develop bad habits. When times are bad people learn to shed their bad habits in an attempt to live, ofcourse not everybody does this but the fact hes giving us a chance shows he is all loving.
>>511289252>despite many trying, no Christians have been able to solve it for 2000 years.1: epicurus never said this and never would have. it's completely against his teachings since he believed in and taught about gods that didn't give a shit about human affairs. putting his marble bust in the picture to lend it more legitimacy is funny.
the reason this trilemma gets attributed to epicurus is because of a Christian writer named lactantius strawmanned this argument onto epicurus for some reason before dismantling the argument in the next few sentences.
https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/0703.htm
(chapter 13)
then, ~1500 years later, hume finds this paragraph and thinks it's amazing, so he plagiarizes it, keeping the false attribution but not bothering to point out lactantius' dismantling of it.
2: as pointed out above, in the sentences immediately following the creation of this false trilemma, it was destroyed.
3: there are eleventy billion valid and sound theodicies and defenses for the problem of evil, so it's not that Christians don't have an answer for it, we actually have too many.

You cannot change the minds of the masses without something catastrophic happening, It is innately tied to who and what we are. That is why god allows it, He basically allowed us to have a fire alarm that we can pull when things get so bad to direct the energy of people against the enemy. I'm sorry we have to go through such hardship to achieve it, look at every revolution in history, it was predated by extreme hardship, because its the only thing that works.

Then the lie finally came, and everyone gobbled it up like there was no tomorrow. Now, more clearer than ever you can see the true nature of people's souls. There is no more pretense, no reason to hide the ugly monster that lurks behind those eyelids. People are demonstrating who they are, captured live and in 4k for the entire world to consume.
Would you have rather lived with these people under a false pretense, false tolerance and acceptance? Or would you rather be exposed to the truth so you can watch your back and survive long enough to see a day when all that wickedness is wiped out?
The devil teaches us to seek comfort and security at any cost. God's voice is the one that will continually remind you that nothing is all right, and if you're not lucky you will fall into the same trap that the wicked did.
You will find that you will have to make a choice before long. Accept and become complacent to these people and their evil doings, or bear your cross and reject them in absolutes. Red pill or blue pill, there is no more room for skepticism in this life.

>>511288721>God made creation with goodness in mind, an extension of His own nature. Evil isn't something God authored, it's the distortion or rejection of good by created being with free will.He instead simply allows it instead of preventing it as he actually should.
And will is primarily determined by parenting, environment and genetics
>>511289712>god loves us He allows fallen angels and demons to fuck with humanity.
How loving.
>>511290865>Or do you have the option to stand in opposition to them? Or can i have option to simply cease my existence?
Thats would be real nice.
The people that say god is loving are the ones that live in comfort.
if god is loving, why did he create animals, creatures that are not self aware and have no morals, designed to brutally hurt eachother to survive in the most horrible ways?
