Some questions about god.

[dskljsdfkgjsdkljg]

1. Who created God?
2. If God is infinite, without a creator; why not save a step and just assume the universe itself is infinite and without creator? I'm sure God is very complex and would appear 'designed' too.
3. If I want to be evil in Heaven, am I stripped of my free will and unable to do so?
4. What sets your God apart from the rest? What makes yours real and theirs not?
5. Why did Christian God punish all of humanity for the crimes of one person, who wasn't even aware the 'fruit' was forbidden in the first place?
6. How did God create the universe out of nothing? Or can something come from nothing?
7. Can God create illogical objects, such as a square-circle?
8. Can God create an object so heavy that even he cannot push it..? Or is he not powerful enough to create such an object?
9. Why did God create Satan if he knew what'd happen before it happened? Or did he not know?
10. Why are there heaps of religions? Surely if one was actually true and the rest false, it would stand largely apart from the rest and be extremely obvious since it has a REAL God to back it up?
11. Why does "god" kill ones that are sick or dying, and not try and heal them?

You'll find all your answers in the KJV1611, boy.

I don't feel like wasting my time reading some book on a religion I do not believe in. I just want to know why christians are so brain washed into thinking God really is out there somewhere.

That's funny, because we don't feel like answering any of your stupid questions either. Follow the instructions and introduce yourself like a normal friendly person would.

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Re: Some questions about god.

1. Who created God?

God is and always has been.

2. If God is infinite,

??? Where is scripture does it say this?

without a creator; why not save a step and just assume the universe itself is infinite and without creator? I'm sure God is very complex and would appear 'designed' too.

God is outside time - He created time. To assume a lack of God would be heresy and void the promise of Salvation™

3. If I want to be evil in Heaven, am I stripped of my free will and unable to do so?

God looks into the minds and souls of men - he would know your intent and you could not reach heaven. The question is vacuous.

4. What sets your God apart from the rest? What makes yours real and theirs not?

God states there are other gods but warns us not to worship them. That is because they are false gods and do not keep their promises nor answer prayers, nor do they ensure admission to Heaven.

5. Why did Christian God punish all of humanity for the crimes of one person, who wasn't even aware the 'fruit' was forbidden in the first place?

Yes she was she was clearly told not to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge.

6. How did God create the universe out of nothing?

It is a mystery, isn't it - another miraculous happening...

Or can something come from nothing?

Yes, but only God can do this.

7. Can God create illogical objects, such as a square-circle?

This is pure sophistry and you are stupid not to see it. A circle cannot be square.

8. Can God create an object so heavy that even he cannot push it..? Or is he not powerful enough to create such an object?

He created the universe, which is the biggest thing. If He created that, then to create something bigger would obliterate the Universe - that day may come after the 2nd coming.

Alternatively, the answer at 7 applies.

9. Why did God create Satan if he knew what'd happen before it happened? Or did he not know?

The belief is that Satan was an angel, and God created them. It was only later that Satan rebeled and became Lord of Darkness. God needed someone to look after the sinners after the Flood - Satan did the job.

10. Why are there heaps of religions?

False Prophets spreading lies for Satan.

11. Why does "god" kill ones that are sick or dying, and not try and heal them?

Are you suggesting the sick never recover? Sir, you're infantile and mad and unobservant.

Re: Some questions about god.

1. Who created God?

No one. God has always been.

2. If God is infinite, without a creator; why not save a step and just assume the universe itself is infinite and without creator? I'm sure God is very complex and would appear 'designed' too.

That isn't supported by scripture.

3. If I want to be evil in Heaven, am I stripped of my free will and unable to do so?

No, you would already be a good person judged worthy to get there. You aren't suddenly going to become evil. Besides, why would you be evil in a place with no sorrow and misery?

4. What sets your God apart from the rest? What makes yours real and theirs not?

The Bible says so.

5. Why did Christian God punish all of humanity for the crimes of one person, who wasn't even aware the 'fruit' was forbidden in the first place?

She knew it was forbidden. God told the two of them they would die if they ate it. The serpent told them they wouldn't.

6. How did God create the universe out of nothing? Or can something come from nothing?
7. Can God create illogical objects, such as a square-circle?
8. Can God create an object so heavy that even he cannot push it..? Or is he not powerful enough to create such an object?

Idiotic semantics from a God mocker. God cannot create something He cannot lift, since God cannot fail. How could God create a circle from something man defines as a 2 dimensional 3 sided object?

You atheists make no sense.

9. Why did God create Satan if he knew what'd happen before it happened? Or did he not know?

Don't you know that God and Satan work together sometimes and they might even be father and son?
Job 1:6-7 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

10. Why are there heaps of religions? Surely if one was actually true and the rest false, it would stand largely apart from the rest and be extremely obvious since it has a REAL God to back it up?

Because the Bible says so.

11. Why does "god" kill ones that are sick or dying, and not try and heal them?

God doesn't kill them. He simply chooses not to heal them. What? Did you think God is all good and sweet? I guess you have never actually read the Bible.

Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Re: Some questions about god.

God states there are other gods but warns us not to worship them. That is because they are false gods and do not keep their promises nor answer prayers, nor do they ensure admission to Heaven.

But what I am saying that to a lot of people, it makes it seem like God is jealous that not everyone is worshiping him. What gives him the right to send me to hell if I do not worship him? And why does God want to control our lives? Why can't we be gay without worrying about going to hell?

Are you suggesting the sick never recover? Sir, you're infantile and mad and unobservant.

And no I'm not suggesting they never be healed, but what about those dying of cancer or those dying of other non curable diseases?

[Ezekiel Bathfire]

Re: Some questions about god.

But what I am saying that to a lot of people, it makes it seem like God is jealous

But God IS jealous! Ex:20:5: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

Why can't we be gay without worrying about going to hell?

Why do you drive on the right of the road? Why does anything happen? Is it not God's Will? If your boss or your father says, "This is how it's done!" Why question him?

And no I'm not suggesting they never be healed, but what about those dying of cancer or those dying of other non curable diseases?

Son, we all die sometime and there has to be a cause. We die because Eve ate of the Fruit of The Tree of Knowledge - prior to that Adam and Eve were immortal. Mortality was the price we paid for her disobedience.

Why does it have to be supported by scripture? Answer it in your own words please.

Because it is a stupid question. God created the universe.

Well we drive on the right side of the road because the law says so. Also you can not use this example because in other countries people drive on the left side of the road. And as to my father asking me to do something, if I feel that it is wrong as to what he is asking me to do or I strongly disagree with it, I would question him. Somethings need to be questioned and not left in silence.

Son, we all die sometime and there has to be a cause. We die because Eve ate of the Fruit of The Tree of Knowledge - prior to that Adam and Eve were immortal. Mortality was the price we paid for her disobedience.[/QUOTE]Honestly I have no response to this, you mat be right and maybe I'm just a little angry and don't know what I'm fully talking about, but it hurts when a loved one is taken away. I'm not trying to mock you guys and I'm not trying to have fun, I just want some real answers and would appreciate not to be looked down upon.

I don't know what you are angry about. Angry that there is a God? It is not our fault that God demands obedience. So does your father or your teacher or a policeman, and if you don't "agree" with the requirements, so what? The fact that you don't "agree" with not parking in the no-parking zone doesn't give you the right to park there. You are required to obey God's law, whether you disagree or not, and the failure to do so results in sanctions. In this case, eternal damnation in the lake of fire.

Faced with the threat of burning forever, won't you do as you're told? And if God has determined that we are immortal, well, then, we are. And if God takes one of your loved ones earlier that you would like, either because they sinned or because YOU did and this is your punishment, then perhaps you should take a lesson from this and follow the path of righteousness.

Re: Some questions about god.

Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

So... let me get this straight....
God himself made evil... and he sends people to hell for something he did....
That makes so much more sense now. (sarcasm)

Friend, you need to read Romans 9.

God creates certain people for destruction.

11(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth.
12It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:

DEUTERONOMY 21:18-19,21a
18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die..
