This is incontrovertible proof that God is evil. God does not live by his own go

Well, you didn't say that the biblical God was evil. Your conclusion was that an actual god (provided it exists) would be. It's not an expressed premise of your case that the Bible represents any bit of that being, or that it could.Greatest-I-am wrote:

Seems you do not believe much of the bible. This is good.
No, you aren't. Whether there is a god and whether it is evil or genocidal does not depend on what anybody believes on the matter... Unless of course you are talking about the biblical character as opposed to an actual god that either did or does exist, but you didn't specify that and so by default I'd assume you mean the latter. On that note, even if you are talking about the biblical character it is still wholly irrelevant whether we believe that the book is an accurate descriptor of something real. We can discuss characters within narratives independent of whether they have real world counterparts or whether those counterparts have anything in common with them.But those who do, are stuck with an evil genocidal God.
See, this is what happens if you start with your conclusions and then completely skip the premises. The extent to which your argument can be addressed, it falls apart.
I could have done all you say but as I see it, God, either real or imaginary, is still evil, so my all encompassing "God" in the O.P., is accurate either way.
I did have Yahweh in mind more than the other Gods, real or imaginary to all who have faith in God, and all the Gods, as unofficial purveyors of social manipulation and control, are all evil to me.

Which makes anything He does inherently good. He is above the Law.
So you are thinking that genocide is good then. Right?
More direct to your answer.
Would you tolerate our human judges breaking the laws they write?
If not why would you give a God the pass to do so?

Because there is nothing I can do about it. If God is evil then he is evil. Nothing I can do about it.
Yes there is.
You can judge him so and pass on your good judgement to those who think otherwise and adore genocide when done by their God.
For evil to grow, all good people need do is nothing.

So is that why you are here? Shouldn't you be visiting a Christian group instead?

So I've agreed God is Evil, but i'm still going to apply the teachings of the Bible?
Is the lord correcting me? am I the Lord?
Is that bible quote not a wise saying? If so, you should not care about the source of it.
To your last.
In the way Gnostic Christians think, yes you are the Lord and your own master.
That was the good news that most ignore in the words the scribes put in Jesus' mouth.

Oh, so you mean it doesn't matter whether a god follows the golden rule? Any gods are evil, no matter what? Then why is there any need to prove it? And how is your relying on the golden rule at all helpful? Shifting the goal post again, are we?Greatest-I-am wrote: I could have done all you say but as I see it, God, either real or imaginary, is still evil, so my all encompassing "God" in the O.P., is accurate either way.

You'd be surprised how many places GIa thinks this needs to be discussed. It's almost like he has an infinite supply of time and disposable Email addresses.
As of the time of writing, this is half the list of all the places where duplicates of this thread exist, with a second half following in the next post because apparently there is a limit on how many references one may make in one single post on TOTJO, but the number of places GIa started this at exceeds that number, haha!

Why do you think so lowly of yourself to think you have no impact on the earth or those who even read what you say?
Keep that poor thinking for yourself if you like but do not try to put me in your lowly mind set.
