Re: 101 reasons why Atheists are WRONG !!!
1 Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying, 2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. 3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed? 4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing? 5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all? 6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
3:3–6 This series of rhetorical questions illustrates the seriousness, certainty, and righteousness of God’s impending action against Israel. Each question is framed so as to require a resounding "no" as its answer.

Sweetie, I understand that your brain has the mental capacity of a 5-year old girl, so I will write it down step by step for you.
1. God created the world, all of it.
2. Therefore, everything in the world - good or bad - is also created by God. In addition to the Isaiah quote above, see:
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it?
3. God gives us the set of proper rules to follow, therefore God decides what is a good deed and what is a sin.
4. It is God who decides who will sin and how:
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Ezekiel 20:25-26
25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;
26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the Lord.
5. Therefore, God creates sin, by: a) defining what sin is, and b) deluding some people into following sinful ways/rules.
Do you understand it now, or should I try to dumb it down further for ya, sweetie?
Do you think that I would be praying for you if I hated you, sweetie?
