(1) What kind of God would you be if you could be God?
I am unable to conceive of being a god.
(2) What kind of cosmos would you have created?
I am unable to conceive of being able to create a cosmos.
Just think, I'm the atheist. This is part of my problem with religious people and their gods. They think too little of their gods. Their image is of a white haired old geezer that talks to people and messes around with his creation. They fail to grasp how utterly inconceivable a god would be. A god would be far beyond our ability to even imagine.

Re: If you were God, what kind of God would you be?
So far, just as I expected, one personal attack and no serious answers.
Why was my answer not serious? Because it does not fit what you wanted. If you ask a question like that you have to expect a few things. One is ridicule, the other is answers that you yourself do not accept or expect.
This again shows that your worldview is a very confined and rare worldview. If you want a serious discussion ask a serious question.

Re: If you were God, what kind of God would you be?
Not only that, it is very close to exactly what happened and why you are here.
So you are able to fathom what a god intended and what a god did? Amazing.
I wish I had a god. Yours seems so puny and insignificant.

Re: If you were God, what kind of God would you be?
How about you telling us your answers then we might get some ideas? Or is it sacrilegious for you to consider such a thing?

But the problem is, that idolatry starts in the heart, when men think that they know better than God.
This is why we have such a wonderful system of rape, murder, adultery, theft, violence....Because men go it alone without God, thinking he doesn't know anything, yet blaming him for everything that happens.
Bizarre but true my friend.
How about quitting the preaching and dealing with the topic.

Re: If you were God, what kind of God would you be?
Again Mike I got to ask. Can you please stop the preaching and attempt some semblance of staying on topic?
Do you even read what topics are about? We do not need or want your preaching.
OP asks
If you were God, what kind of God would you be?
Can you answer without preaching?

Re: Should I Rape Suzy? Part III
Well I am as much an atheist as anyone that comes to this forum. I think people can tell that from my posts. I implore you not to rape Suzy because it is morally, ethically and legally wrong.
Imagine that an atheist with morals. Whodathunk?

No response to Dr. Adequate?
Not willing to comment about Suzy?
