Semantics.
On the scale of good and evil, there is no broken.

The theory that all is subject to good and evil and that the tree of knowledge represent the knowledge of everything is quite old.
I have yet to find anything to refute that idea.
Some leeway for language has to be given as I just showed our friend but the basic idea is quite sound and so far irrefutable.

"God did not send someone else to die to restore the relationship with mankind. He came Himself."
Get the scripture that says God can die please.
Literalist are always hard to debate with because you guys always throw your B.S. fantasies in there and those cannot be spoken to in any intelligent way.
You keep telling us all that you know for sure about God while ignoring that your theology begins by saying that God is unknowable, unfathomable and works in mysterious ways.
IOW. You cannot know anything about God and thus everything you say you know and fathom is an outright lie.
That is why I say a truth when saying that all priests are liars.
You believe a whole bunch of lies and have become an idol worshiper of lies.
That is why you can somehow delude yourself into thinking that a God who, as in King David's story, can torture a baby for 6 days before finally killing it, and is somehow still a good and just God in your deluded eyes.
Shame on you for having and supporting such a satanic God.

DL

The scale we are given in scriptures to work with is good at one end and evil at the other. Right?
The issue is an arm.
A sound one is good and a broken one is on the evil side of the scale.
What would you prefer to have and why?
You would always pick the good one and likely never choose the other which on this scale is evil.
If the issue is a table with a broken leg, the same logic would apply and all of us would choose the table with the best legs.

There was no apple so why are you deflecting?
You deflect because you cannot refute the logic of what I put.
Good and evil are judgement we make and apply to whatever we like.
A rock that is just the right height for sitting is quite good. That same rock falling off a cliff and heading for your head you would think quite evil.

No disrespect meant.
I only reply in the hope that you will laugh as much as I did when fetching something to correct you.

Re: Moderator Provided Information

So you are saying that cause and effect are real except in the case of God even though no God has ever been proven to exist.
That does not seem to be quite an honest way to think.
One could then also say that there was a mother and father God and Goddess who gave birth to your God.
Better to be honest and like science, end with a God of the Gaps instead of just an imaginary construct created out of your denial of cause and effect in the case of your God.
