Ten Questions To Theists by Pr0ton: 1:22pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
While most of the questions here are directly to the Christians, all are to those who believe in one God. Q1. Don't you think that your faith is God's hope of existence, and when everyone loses his faith God dies and becomes inexistent? Q2."...and on this rock will I build my church, and the gate of hell shall not prevail agaisnt it"..."No weapon that is formed against you shall prevail" why then does Boko Haram prevail against the Christians in the North? Q.3 God, the omniscient, knew some men would fall and go to hell. Why didn't He just create the good ones and leave the bad ones if truly "He doesn't want any to perish"? Q4. If God is perfect and makes no mistakes, why does He regret/repent frequently in the Bible? Q5. If light and darkness can't exist why do good and evil exist? Q6. "I desire mercy, not sarifice", Hosea 6:6, why did He still sacrifice His Son for our sins? Q7. If the penalty for sin is eternal torment in hell, then did Jesus really pay the penalty for sin? 5 Likes 1 Share |

Q8. If God is Omnipresent doesn't that mean He exists in hell too? Q9. If truly we have a freewill, the ability to make your own choice and decision, then how authentic is God's Omniscience? Q10. Of what use is God's existence? 4 Likes |

God can't certainly decern for men...wen he created adam nd eve...he simply gave dem a choice...believe me broda God really exists nd to think he doesn't isn't reasonable.....even science can't give an accurate answer to hw d earth evolved...but if u tk a deeper luk around u even without reading d bible u'll understand dat complex humans lyk us didn't jst emerge frm beasts....hence God exists 3 Likes |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by Pr0ton: 1:50pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: He actually gave them a destructive choice. He knew they would make the wrong choice but yet made then go ahead. Isn't God responsible for the functioning of human brain? What did Adam and Eve use to make their choice? their brain, who created the brain? God, and therefore the root of their fall. Why should I take my incomplete knowledge of how I and the earth evolved as a proof for God's existence? 2 Likes |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by Giitheon(m): 2:07pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Pr0ton:my brother,yes God is responsible 4 d creation of d brain,but God cannot help dem mk choices.. lets luk at it frm dis perspective ...God simply allowed it, he never programmed us to do gud....God is nt responsible 4 d terror we face on earth 2day...we are..GOD simply allowed it bro |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by plaetton: 2:34pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: This is not true. In the bible, god is known to have made choices for people. For example. In Genesis or Exodus, can't remember which , god supposedly hardened the heart of pharaoh in order that he may use it to destroy him. This is remarkable. God made Pharaoh to make a bad choice, a choice that god now used as excuse to punish same Pharaoh. This is the best biblical evidence that free will is not free. Somewhere else in the bible, god also says" is there no evil in the land that the Lord has not done it". This implies that the Lord is the author and architect of all evil in the hearts and minds of men. Where is the freewill to do good when the lord overrides and hardens your heart towards evil? Please answer. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Giitheon: With all due respect, this is one of the silliest things I have read all week, and might set a record for this entire new month. " god only hardened his heart but did not force him to make choice" ?. Na waaaaaa? I can't believe that cognitive dissonance has engulfed you this early into the thread. 4 Likes |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by Pr0ton: 3:11pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: If GOD simply allowed it why does He blame us then? He never programmed us to be good yet says, "without holiness no one shall see him". He is excepting the impossible from us yet will throw us into hell if we don't turn up. If your saying God is not responsible for the terror we face then you contradict yourself and don't even understand what your saying. 1 Like |

Giitheon: Job is far different from Adam and Eve. Remember the origin of sin and suffering trace back to Adam and Eve. And also, God should have created that type of world in the beginning instead of letting millions of souls run the risk of "hell" 1 Like |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by plaetton: 3:56pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: Try to think about this for a second. Your omnipotent and omniscient god creates a chaotic world for you, a sort of turbulent ocean, buts asks you to swim well and steadfastly because a paradise island, a paradise kingdom is waiting for you on the far horizon, if you manage not to drown in this turbulent ocean he has created for you. Is that your position? If so, does that make god even sensible? 2 Likes |

Re: Ten Questions To Theists by plaetton: 6:21pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: The problem with arguing with your type is that there is no way to refute you without seeming to insult you, with the kindergarten reasoning that is so common to your lot. Life cannot exist without death. All that lives must eventually die. So, it is silly to say sin brought about death in the world. As long as human are made of dividing cells made of organic materials, death is part of life. Only unintelligent people would believe that humans were created to physically live forever. |
Re: Ten Questions To Theists by Pr0ton: 6:22pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Giitheon: Your arguing out of point bro... Replying you would make me start all over again. |
