| kain_kusanagi said: You are still making so many assumptions. Stop assuming God is like us. God is beyond our understanding. You ask why God doesn't just skip to the end. Who ever said that God made plans for everything? God made plans, but between those plans is free will. That's why God has intervened on occasionally and has said more intervention will come. You assume that God created the universe from beginning to end just to reach the finish line. The idea of existence to serve an ultimate goal isn't flawed, but why can't that goal be the middle part? |
If he is beyond our understanding, why do you assume that he has an ultimate goal with our existence? Why do you assume that god gave us free will and didn't put us in a deterministic universe? Why do you assume that God truly is almighty and isn't merely limited to being able to create our universe? Why do you assume that God is good, and not evil? Why do you assume that God's interventions with humanity were not evil all along? Why do you assume that God didn't create us to reach the finish line, when reality might be that he did but isn't able to?
You make a lot of assumtions, as well as I, and they are necessary for these discussions. The difference is that you believe in yours (because you are a Christian, right?) while I am being theoretical.
