A Question for Christians
Having very smug opinions about their creator, Chrisitans will brag about
the all-knowing, all-powerful and all-benevolent god. They gush over how just and forgiving it is while watching
friends die in tornadoes, accidents and such.
They see an entire town destroyed but proclaim a miracle when a baby
somehow survives.
A quarter million people die in a tsunami and all the church leaders can
talk about is how generous their god is to allow 10 survivors of a train that
turned over in the waves.
So, here’s the question thanks to Rosa Rubicondor: Christians, when you pray to your god to stop a
wrong, is it because it doesn't know it's happening or because it doesn't know it's
wrong?
Does an omniscient, omnipotent and omnibenevolent being who aledgedly
created the universe not know when something is wrong in its creation? Does this same being not know when a wrong
is being done?
This god must surely know everything if what the believers say is
true. If it doesn’t know something
wrong is happening, then it isn’t omniscient.
If it doesn’t know something is wrong, then it’s a sociopath and lacks
empathy for its creations. And most
important, if it knows it’s wrong and does nothing, the god is malevolent.
Who wants to worship that?
