Why Loki?
Why did you choose Loki, who isn't even a god (and only gets mentioned as one because he kept hanging with his brother, Odin), as the representative? That's sort of like getting the angel Gabriel to represent Christianity.
You should have chosen Odin. Loki wasn't involved in the creation of all things, and isn't even very powerful. Odin was one of the three creator brothers (with Ve and Vili), and is usually considered to be the chief God. Odin at least was worshipped, whereas Loki was not (as far as anyone can tell anyway).
Edited by Doddy Curumehtar, : offered alternative: Odin
Edited by Doddy Curumehtar, : mentioned worship of Odin vs Loki

Re: I am late but I am here if you chose to have faith
I know I shouldn't encourage anyone but...
Let us make one thing clear God is Perfect. Perfection can only produce Perfection. In the beginning God created Adam and Eve Perfect. It follows then that any decisions they made were by force Perfect. Know also that all is in Perfect balance and things progress as they should.
If perfection can only produce perfection, and God created everything, thus everything must then be perfect. And, if people were created perfect, then they would stay perfect unless something imperfect influenced them. But there can't be anything imperfect because God created everything, and by your logic, must make things perfect. Thus, all humans are perfect, AND everything they produce is perfect. Thus, this paragraph is perfect.
