RE: moral world
Why, the one that our society chose to adopt.
That would be the society that prints "In God We Trust" on their money.
Seems you're out of sync.
That includes a number of things, such as "the lawgivers are not above the law" and "people have responsibilities to those in their care."
I see your point, but, if the lawgivers are not above the law, then how can the lawgivers execute the law on everyone?
IE: Police don't violate the speed laws when they have their lights and siren on.
Or everyone and or entity pays taxes except for the lawgiver who collects taxes.
Heh, God's going to strike me down for blasphemy? I guess I'm not really afraid of folks that don't exist.
Ummm, guess cliff jumpers come in various forms.
You don't believe that it's God's world, or that he's able to watch us all at once, and has the ability to intervene whenever he chooses? Funny, most Christians seem to.
My bible says friendship with the world is enemity with God.
My bible says there's whole lot of people he never knew.
My bible says Jesus couldn't do much miracles in certain places because of their unbelief.
Guess some flexiablity is needed on what can or can't be.
How could I have intimate knowledge of a figure that doesn't exist?
A rather definitive statement, are you basing that statement on verifiable proof that He doesn't exist or a whole lot of faith based on very little evidence?
I'm just saying that there's obvious inconsistencies when you try to reconcile an all-powerful, benevolent deity with the real world that we observed.
Perhaps drawing conclusions from erroneous presuppositions produces such inconsistencies.
Again, I don't claim to have any better knowledge of god than anybody else. I'm just saying that if you're going to propose that this world is watched over by an all-powerful, benevolent deity, you have some questions to answer.
From your defining statements about God you've made, I'd say you have some incorrect perspectives.
I don't recall any verse saying an "all-powerful" God watches over this world.
However a verse or two come to mind that He can watch if He chooses too.
RE:
"One question though, if God is all knowing (as you say)
then why does He ask; "Where art thou" when Adam and Eve are hiding in the garden?"
He's not my god. Why don't you tell me?
Not only don't you believe in God as you have said, but you're missing some good pointers in verse about Him.
