Your comments, all of them, make it seem like you know nothing about Christian theology. Why then, would you think you are able to debate it?

I do know Christian theology, which is why I am asking questions Christian theology cannot answer.

You’re sort of pretending not to know the concept of the Trinity while at the same time suggesting you do.

Of course I know the concept of the Trinity. But I went form being an Eastern Orthodox Christian to an agnostic; perhaps I learned too much for my own good :). But I am not sure where you are coming from (Christianity is rather heterodox), so I ask.

How do you expect to be taken seriously?

You keep responding, so I suppose you take what I say seriously, don;t you? Why else would you be dealing with someone you don't take seriously?

Christian theology can answer your questions. (I would like significantly more difficult ones, please.)

“So, God is not in charge of the world?”

Christian theology teaches essentially that God has Satan on a leash.

“Which God?”

The Triune God is three in one.

“So, are you saying the world is not the way God wills it, but how we will it? Who’s driving this bus?”

God’s will is categorized into two forms: God’s eternal will and God’s moral will. His eternal will is what happens no matter what. His moral will is what should happen, but doesn’t always due to the fact that mankind—through his own free will—often violates it.

“What difference does it make?”

I was just curious.
