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!!

Back for a bit.
If you cannot see that, as evidenced by your response to post 253, your atheistic blindness prevents you from seeing both the consequences (direct and indirect) of disobeying God (thus suffering) as well as His restraint (thus the whole world is not a N.Korea, as well as what your faith is up against in the light of the universe, then nothing can presently change that.

Be back later.

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?
