I put your God on the stand and ask him what he has done to stop ANYTHING!??
I hold your God to the same standard I do of ANYTHING! Actions speak louder than words!! And again, I’ve seen ZERO so there is ZERO Belief!!


The issue may be eyes to see and ears to hear.

You look through all of history and see no times when evil was restrained. If it wasn’t restrained for individuals and societies, can you imagine the state we would be in?

The issue for you and throughout history is man good or evil? If man is good we can create heaven on earth, if not it is hell on earth.

How are you defining good and evil? Is it a relative thing, defined by man, changing day by day. We live in a day in which good is evil and evil is good. What does that tell you?

The amazing thing is that God has not turned us completely over to our hearts desires. The amazing thing is that he does restrain some evil.

The very discussion of evil and good requires that there be a standard to evaluate. What should that standard be?

The gov’t thinks it is evil that you should have a house and car all to yourself. Are they right?

Or is there a perfect unchanging standard we should understand and strive for?

man's heart is what controls society. hence the ghetto vs upper class. and THAT is the crux of defining who it is that is indeed maintaining the balance. If there is an ultimate being that is over seeing all this and is sitting back waiting for man to fix it, well that is one cruel sob... And if thats the case, what the hell is he even there for??
