God vs Satan

No because it requires God to be insane.

I guess the question could just as easily be why create. Hier ist kein warum.

Good question. Why create....

Is big g on a massive ego trip
"here is my creation, I see that it is good and I go further and create homonculus to worship me"

So you accept your religion is polytheistic, mine isn't btw.

You may define 'god' anyway you want. I don't care as I pointed out
to you earlier, a piece of wood can be a god to some, a demon with
powers can be a god to some too. I acknowledge that, but there is
only one 'God' and that is the bottom line. There are people who
worship rocks that have been carved up to look like something is a
god. You believe anything with supernatural powers should be called a
god, okay, call them gods if you want. There are/have been world
leaders that want to be called god too, let them do what they want,
and those that follow them too, but there is only one God. Beside Him
there is no other God, He is Lord, the one and only God. If you want
to think my belief system is poloytheistic, fine by me, I just disagree
with you.

Well, if God is omnipotent, surely he has the Power to prevent Satan's evil from occuring, no?

[b]whose minds the god of this age(world) has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

Holy cr*p! Mind if I use that line in the Astrotheology thread?[/b]

LOL. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant!!!

Stop making up what you think I believe, One is mono, more than one is poly. and You have a greater god and lesser gods.

Either the whole bible is true or none of it is...if one can pick and choose what is true and what is not, then I would have to say that person is a fool.

It is evident that he has blinded both your minds.🙂

Okay. I guess you can look at it from the perspective that God, having created a creature that is capable of both evil and good, created evil.

So, do you are see why there is no Devil? The Devil would be a pro-active creation of evil. Once you see that, you may be ready to tackle the Big question.

God did not create an evil Lucifer...he became that way.

If there is no devil, then the bible is a lie, and so is your "kingdom".
