Indeed she is.

The Devil uses people like her to attribute what he caused to the God of all goodness. So others can be led astray.

2Tim3:13 But evil people and impostors will go from bad to worse as they deceive others and are themselves deceived.

God never promised a world free of suffering, He only promised to walk with us through thick and thin if we trust in Him.

I see your disbelief tilts towards emotions. God is able to heal you.

Let us look at it this way, how would u explain the millions of children killed in the past. Were they good or bad to God? If ur God can't be good to everyone equally then he does not deserve the title 'all loving' because it only makes mockery of his nature.

And OP you did not specify which of the Gods were good to u.

Evil manifests because man swore his alleigance to the enemy by eating the forbidden fruit (i.e Believing the devil instead of God).

But our loving God has made a provision to redeem man from this terrible mistake by sending his Son to die for our sins so that through Him we might have life and have it more abundantly.

Can you coherentely and precisely give us an account of the existence of evil.

So God wants to redeem us, from what exactly
Is he going to redeem us from the problem he created for us or the numerous problems he did nothing to solve?

We need to get something straight before i grace you with engagement.
We know that most atheists are, mainly because of their emotions rather than logical deductions. Even though they scream otherwise.
Do you now believe in the existence of God to ask why He does what He does. I mean, someone who dosent even believe in God shouldnt ask such questions. Your questions should centre on who this God is and not what He allows or what He dosent. Lets not build on sands, lets start from the scratch.

Which conscience? Are your fighting off your conscience for disbelieving in the mythology of the muslims? The way you guys reason is actually pathetic. You just keep regurgitating ancient myths and fiction you have been indoctrinated with thinking you have some special knowledge.

God is a man made entity that is why you are here explaining to us what you think he allows and what you think he does not allow. You are not even ashamed of trying to speak for an all powerful, all knowing entity, do you know why you are speaking for such a being and not allowing him to speak for himself? It is because he is an imaginary being that you were indoctrinated with, an imaginary being that lives inside your head and the heads of other believers like you, if you were born and raised in a muslim home, Allah would have been the God you would have been preaching like the other muslims here do.

the conscience that tells you good from bad, the conscience that makes you aware of a Creator

I do not disbelieve what you talking about, allah obviously exists

Atheism is the belief in the inexistence of a Creator due to probably a strong evidence, bring forth your evidence lets analyze.

These are serious claims. Just one question, Dont you believe we were also indoctrinated with "good", considering the fact that "we" are only higher animals with no bearing, purpose or reason?

If i was born into a poor family, i most likely would try to succeed in life. I wont want to remain poor all my life. Same applies to everything else. You can be born into any religion, but it is left to you to find out the truth, it is left to you to succeed.

Good and bad were taught to me, it is not inert, the society I live in taught me what good and bad is. I am not aware of any creator.

You have meet and interacted with Allah? Can you describe to us his distinct features so that we will know it's Allah when ever we come in contact or encounter with it.

So you have now reduced your God to only a creator? There is no evidence for a creator any where, where is your God's signature or claim of ownership in any part of nature?

These are serious claims. Just one question, Dont you believe we were also indoctrinated with "good", considering the fact that "we" are only higher animals with no bearing, purpose or reason?

I have told you that God and bad are relative terms, morality must be learned. What is the purpose of human life ? Is this purpose universally accepted? Why or why not?

Repeating indoctrinated claims over and over again doesn't make them true. God is a man made entity that is why no God can be shown to exist on it;s own independent of human input, humans have to write the religious stories, create the religious doctrines, build the temples for their Gods, teach others about their God and explain their God to them, spread the messages of their Gods, fight for their Gods, create cultures and traditions according to their God beliefs and on and on. Humans invent Gods and do everything for them. Please show this God of your in action on it;s own. Gods only depend on human belief, once people stop beliving in a particular God the God dies example is Ra amun the ancient God of the Egyptians, most of the Pyramids where built in his name, today no body believe in that God in Egypt. New Gods like Allah and Yahweh have taken over.

cheesy Being raised in a poor family is not the same as being raised into a religious family. Its like comparing apples to stones. All religions are equally valid or invalid, your religion is true just like any other. Do not think because you were raised and indoctrinated to reason and accept a particular religion then it becomes truth over others. Your religion is as true as every other religion. Happy new year to you too.

I wish you would probe the origination of good and bad. The same way you did your research by reading anti-god articles, do so for 'good and bad' maybe you'll have an idea what im talking about.
dalaman:

Try to keep an open mind. When we talk about God and gods, we dont talk about visible beings, we talk about invisible beings who have some form of power. By asking me such questions as the above, you must have done the same for invisible entities like forces, laws etc
dalaman:

But there is evidence for a nothing cause? (All evidence points towards a Creator, why not be objective)
dalaman:

But 'morality is subjective', at least according to the atheist. A saying he uses to justify his evil deeds.
Can you tell us more on the origination of morality.

Even other gods existed in the Bible and were peculiar to certain countries.
But Before i level these lies, do you believe in a causeless universe?.

You seem to be struggling with some issues, just the other day you opened a thread on how to know the true religion. Thats hypocritically contradictry to your "validity and invalidity" claims.
Where exactly did you get your facts from, what did you read, who did you ask questions, who taught you? As appealing as the answers you got from these sources might sound, they sure will have a significant effect in your life.
Being raised in a poor family and being raised into a religious family is the best analogy that depicts your claim.
How is your family?.
