I learned at a young age I was being duped by the claim of an all-loving, all-powerful god when I realized how much evil and cruelty there is in the world.corunna skepticnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726306875167162020.post-50345756473115641812009-07-30T13:23:03.608-04:002009-07-30T13:23:03.608-04:00Corunna Skeptic - Bart Ehrman has a great book out...Corunna Skeptic - Bart Ehrman has a great book out called "God's Problem". He went to Moody Bible School and then through the Princeton Theological Seminary and lost his faith dealing with the issue of why we suffer. <br /><br />The book is well written and handles the different reasons/justifications for the problem of suffering and then shows, clearly, why they're empty (and contradictory).sarniaskeptichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02183125250166884307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726306875167162020.post-48829699298962526522009-07-27T11:12:29.846-04:002009-07-27T11:12:29.846-04:00The problem of evil is always ignored by the relig...The problem of evil is always ignored by the religious. It drives me mad when such evil is done to a child and the whole time religious people are praying to bring the child home. And when the child is found dead, they just make an excuse and say it was "all part of God's plan". Disgusting irrationality.<br /><br />I mean, what the hell is the point of praying if God already had the plan for the child anyway? Your God doesn't care for little children's safety. That's because your god is a fairy tale.Corunna Skepticnoreply@blogger.com
