Analyzing A Particular Story From The Bible by obinna58(m): 7:17am On Apr 05, 2017 |
God is described as omnipotent: having unlimited power and able to do anything. omniscient: knowing everything : having unlimited understanding or knowledge. omnipresent: present in all places at all times. Benevolent: characterized by or expressing goodwill or kindly feelings. The omniscient knowing how the future would turn out, he still went ahead for human creation, the omnipotent God formed/created Adam through the help of dust, later took Adam's rib to create eve after making him fall deep asleep (any need for that, from an omnipotent being). God made garden of Eden perfect so as to make the two creatures comfortable, lack nothing but unfortunately decided to create a forbidden tree "tree of knowledge,"(so why would God ever wanted such tree to exist at first if he really wanted the two unknowledgeable) so God created the tree inside the same garden with Adam and Eve wow, I mean we have Antarctica Amazon forest Sahara desert Mountain Everest No he choosed garden of eden as the best safe place for this tree, created Satan knowing what he is capable of and yet allowed him inside garden of eden, lowered the height of the tree, made it's fruits eatable and attracting(really?). Even when Satan was busy convincing eve about the fruit the omnipresent God was busy enjoying the drama in 3d, and Adam was nowhere to be found, satan successfully convinced her, eve took it to the next level with Adam and then the omnipresent showed up immediately in order to take actions, he got angry of his perfectly executed plans and banished the two unknowledgeable creatures from eden, even when they had no idea of the crime they committed (were they unforgivable?). He failed as omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, benevolent being, so what's the essence of calling him God, or can a God be limited to some certain things Would like religionists to put more light on this story so as to enlighten the mentally ill atheists

The claim for the Christian god is that she/he/it (say it fast) has multiple ultimate characteristics — omniscience, omnipresence, omnipotence, and omnibenevolence. The most any given entity can possibly have is one of them, since it's always possible to posit a situation in which 2 of them are pitted against each other, and one of them must lose. Indeed, it's possible for at least one of them (omnipotence) to do battle with itself, as indicated by the insoluble riddle "Can God make a rock so heavy he can't lift it?" Therefore, if there is in reality some kind of supernatural entity, it can't have the nature claimed for the Christian god. It's logically impossible for anything to have more than one ultimate characteristic, and stupendously unlikely that it has even the one. So I for one have no difficulty whatsoever saying that no, the Christian god not only doesn't exist, it can't exist!!! |
