Who is Richard Taylor and when and where did he make that statement, and in what context? If the quote is not a complete lie, then he was just trying to explain the theistic way of thinking. All those dot dot dots in the quote are there for a reason: to mislead lazy readers.
Why not find out for yourself who he is, the authenticity of the post, and what the dots mean.

Apparently his own blindness wasn't as bad as it is with some of you.

The onus is not on him to authenticate the quote

Is something good because God commands it or does God command it because it is good?



This question is meant to insight deep thought and debate

Perhaps it will help if you knew some of the names of God.
God is Light, Truth, Righteous, Holy, Good and Love.

On this premise, everything good is of God.
Genesis 1:31 God saw that everything He made was very good.
Consequently, everything bad and evil is from you-know-who.

May your curiousity lead you to theTruth.

Satan, yes. He was his best, before Pride crept in and he fell.
Satan has God-given Wisdom which is why he's a genius. But as a true believer and disciple of Christ you become wiser than him.

If God created the originator of evil, doesn't this make God the primary source of evil?

There's so much I wish to share with you but you cannot get the Rhema without the Holyspirit. If I share them with you, they will only confuse you more and probably lead you astray more.

Please accept Christ as your Saviour. Choose to Follow Jesus Christ. He is the only Way to Truth and Life, Peace and Joy and God's abundance. He is simply the Solution to all problems and for all people.

1 John - That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life— 2 the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. 4 And these things we write to you that [a]your joy may be full.

5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

I am not an advocate of subjective morality but I must confess this animation is a very strong justification in support of it . At least judging it from christain perspective......

Good video we have here...all christain should take their time and watch it.....it impressive.

I've been searching for a while and cannot figure out where the quote originally came from. My guess is the same place scripture came from.

Keep searching. Why give up so early.
Your guess isn't relevant.

The quotation is a lie as far as I'm concerned. That which is proposed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. Back to the topic!

Ready to kill every first born son of the Egyptians 'cause the Israelites were captured.

Africans captured, killed and sold, their god be like "I've already sent myself to be killed. That should be real plenty no? Enjoy the slavery. Everything is my will"

Several hundred years later, their god's will is still abound. Mental slavery, hypocrisy, corruption, retardation (no offense), suffering, poverty, misery etc

Sad! cry

#peace
