I can’t imagine a single human that would intentionally give cancer to a child, or even ALLOW them to get cancer if they could prevent it.Īlso, in a court of law, if you know about a crime that is about to be committed, and don’t try to report or prevent it, you’re considered an accessory to that crime. If God is All Loving, how could He allow Children to get cancer? Heck compared to God, ANYONE on earth would have more love and compassion for children. How is this a god of love?Īnd really, which is worse, Hitler killing 10,000,000 people (Jews, Homosexuals, atheists, gypsies, etc.) or God keeping hundreds of millions of people alive just to torture them for eternity some simply for not believing in Him, or even a particular version of Him? According to the teachings of Christianity, all of the Jews that Hitler tortured and killed were then promptly sent to Hell for not believing that Jesus was the Christ/Savior and according to the Bible, these are God’s Chosen People!Ĥ. There is no lesson to be learned or benefited from, with this type of punishment. Here, God is punishing sinners just for the sake of inflicting pain and suffering forever. How could an All-Loving God send ANYONE to hell? Remember, He is supposed to love us more than any parent ever loved their child and note that He isn’t using Hell as a remedial, instructional punishment like a parent punishes a parent punished a child in order to teach them to behave better. Moreover, why did God put the Tree-of-Knowledge in the Garden of Eden in the first place? Especially if He knew what was going to happen? Isn’t he supposed to know everything that will ever happen? It would have been so easy just to place it on the other side of the world or on the Moon for that matter.ģ. Also if God had explained to Adam and Eve what right and wrong was before they ate of the fruit so that they would understand why it was wrong to eat the apple, then wouldn’t He have essentially given them the Knowledge that he had just forbidden them to have? Remember THIS is the Original Sin, the basis for the need for salvation in all of Christianity. In the Bible, in the Garden of Eden, if the fruit of the Tree-of-Knowledge contains the knowledge of Good/Evil and Right/Wrong, then how could Adam and Eve have known it was “wrong” to disobey God and eat the fruit before they did? They couldn’t have known what right and wrong meant.
Is it just because your parents told you that it was true? And that most of the people you know think that it is true? Really, think about it, what real, extra-biblical basis do you have to believe it is the work of a God? And if you’re considering answering “I just feel that it’s true”, go ready my article entitled “Feelings aren’t facts”.Ģ.
#Quiztones to never ask christians full
He’s a ruthless dictator and the book is full of His atrocities. Further, if you’ve read it, you know that it’s not a good book that is, god doesn’t exactly set a good example. They can’t ALL be true because they contradict each other. What, exactly, is your basis for believing that the Bible is True not necessarily the word of god, but true? Remember, your answer can’t be “Because the Bible says it’s true”, ANY book would be true by that measure, and any religion would be true by that measure. I hope that if they honestly consider these questions they might realize for themselves just how much of their own skepticism and rationality they have been sidelining.ġ. And it’s not for my own edification that I ask them, but for theirs. With that in mind, I have drawn up several questions that I would like believers (in this case Christian believers) to ponder. However, what continues to amaze me is that these questioners, who are VERY happy to question my beliefs, so rarely question their own. I don’t really mind, I realize that I might very well be the first atheist that they’ve ever met, and I’m happy to put the lie to some of the church-given notions about us. It’s funny that whenever I tell a believer that I’m an atheist, they always start asking me questions. Digital Freethought Blog (Image by peachknee from Pixabay)
