Hahahah not on twitter. No but seriously, God is known to focus on peace and love and whatever, he is supposed to be our creator and the one who will lead us or something, yet our world is corrupting day by day yo god where you at? Like why would such a perfect being create people capable of murder rape and terrorism? If he is the all mighty who writes our faiths and stuff, why would he allow the negativity?
GOD IS on Twitter, his name is Donald! If you don't believe him, ask him! He is the smartest being in the Universe! He knows ALL! HE, at the moment at least, holds the survival of the Earth in HIS hands! HE will singlehandedly, stop ISIS! HE will make U.S. all rich ... just before we die! HE will bring pestilence, disease and starvation upon U.S.! (By cutting funds for research, the EPA, health insurance for the elderly and regulations that keep us safe)! HE holds our lives in HIS hands and will reduce the population to make more room for HIS rich disciples! HE IS GOD! ;-)
Why will you be on the side against God, making yourself part of the negativity? You probably think you are one of the good guys and not one of the evil people you are blaming God for allowing to exist, yet you stand against God which is the essence of evil as your stance holds you in chains of death, the evil is going against you. God can and will set you free if you will stop opposing Him which is only going against your own life.
In my opinion you missed the most important hallmark of the classic megalomaniac;-- Love and worship me every day in prayer, song and deed or you'll have white hot pokers shoved up your arse for eternity.
Or a person who has omnipotent authority, knows the future, and knows all about the "other gods" and their destructive power upon a human being. If you knew the future it would take hardcore measures to get someone to listen to you without taking away free will. The variables neccessary to achieve the final good goal are incalculable.
Because it's your choice. You'll never be able to say you didn't choose your path or that you were not given alternative choices. You will be able to be accused of not choosing him and rejecting his way. Your liking it or not will be irrelevant.
This is oxymoronic. "God knows everything and sees everything and exists in everything and is throughout all time and space, and whatever he decides to create he knows all the outcomes of every part of it before he creates it, which means he knows what every human will be like and what decisions they make before they even make them, but we have "free will"".
I know every line of the movie Tombstone. I can tell you what is happening next and how it ends. I didn't manipulate any of the characters into saying or doing any of it. They did it on their own. It's like magic.
They do have free will. I didn't make them do anything, yet I know what they will do and say. If you can't grasp simple concepts, that's your problem. This is simple to grasp. Knowing an outcome doesn't mean that you influenced it.
Yep. Doc Holiday and Wyatt Earp had free will, and were real people. If you're not grasping that the actual point is "Knowing what someone will do does not mean you made them do it" then it's not my fault if you can't keep up. Wisdumb has no problem keeping up with what I say. Are you a little slow?
If you create something, with complete knowledge of its functions, and complete knowledge of every time, instance, and way in which it will utilize those functions, and which aims drive its acts, and all aspects of its life, from beginning, to end, then you are responsible for everything that it does. You have set the limitations on what it can and can't do, can and can't think, can and can't be. You have complete and total foresight of everything it will amount to, of every decision it will ever make, and in which direction those decisions will sway.
To create such a being, then blame it for being the way you knew it would be, the way you made it, the way you foresaw it, is an act of downright stupidity.
But more to the point: all of this is moot. There's no evidence of any of your religious tripe, anyway. God is a myth. And you are an idiot.

Citation needed for anyone blaming anyone for anything. Blind assertions are meaningless.
I think what he is saying is that before God created you He had no knowledge of what you would do. But after He created you He could travel in time and see the end result then travel back in time and know what you are going to do. ;)
The argument is essentially, "I don't like God. I don't like how he does things. If he knows the future and lets me be the creep that I am it's his fault. Therefore he doesn't exist." I've heard good atheist arguments. That isn't one of them.
If he knew are future when he created us, and he decided to create us exactly that way, then there was no free will. But, most Christians are too stupid to see the logical in that.
The Bible never says the words "free will". Humans imposing it as a theoretical concept is meaningless.
Just because he knew someone would be a piece of trash, means? nothing. He still got what He wanted in the end. You just chose to not jump on board. You "had your reasons". It didn't matter in the end. You opposed an omnipotent being, which means your survival instincts do not work or you have suppressed them. That's on you.

Do you believe free will exists or not?
st because he knew someone would be a piece of trash, means? nothing.
Not "someone" but "everyone": he knew everyone of his creations would be so full of sin that they deserved the be burnt for all eternity. He decided to make them that way.

Of course. The system in place weeds out who loves you no matter what and who is fake in a short span of time. He saves those who love him no matter what.
But those didnt choose to love him. God decided to make them the way that would mean that they loved him. Others he decided to make in a way that they didnt. So no one "deserves" anything. They are exactly how God made them.
But those didnt choose to love him. God decided to make them the way that would mean that they loved him. Others he decided to make in a way that they didnt
We don't know that he made anyone any particular way. This was the path that led to what he wanted. People who loved him freely. Those who don't are a part of that process. He knew some wouldn't seek or love him. But he knew others freely would, so he pushed the go button.
There are no efficient realities available to God where people can choose to love him or not, where then everyone chooses to love him. Any such reality would be deficient because it would only have a few people or maybe just one or two.
The people who do love him shouldn't be disallowed existence simply because some choose to not love him in an efficient reality.

To love is a choice, love and freedom are two sides of the same coin, God loves you and gives you freedom to choose your own way over His way. You can walk away from Him or you can draw near to Him. To say you can't choose to love God is only saying you won't love God.....and how can you experience His love if you are trying to blame Him for giving you the choice of going your own way?
I would be afraid of dying if I did not know I had found God's peace. I don't like pain and have plenty of it, but I have joy knowing what is ahead for me when the sufferings are over. In the middle of pains, sufferings, sorrows I still have joy that makes me jump and shout thanksgiving and praise to God who loved me before I knew Him when I scoffed at His law and spit in His face.
Real Christians may seem as you say, stupid, but they are forgiven and know God's love while in thankfulness they do what they can to honor him with their lives. You can know God's love if you will....and there's that thing about "will", free will, again.
I think what he is saying is that before God created you He had no knowledge of what you would do. But after He created you He could travel in time and see the end result then travel back in time and know what you are going to do. ;)
You're in the middle of six different pathways. at every end of each God knows what is there and what you faced to get there.
He has a sign board on his maybe path 3. still not compulsory to follow his. you chose a different one, that is free will, at the end you got swallowed by a crocodile, yes God is still omniscience, present and potent.
