    I said God created everything....but ''sinners sin''....in their whims while ''While the God-fearing look at them with awe!''...
    To sin is man's own act not endorsed either by God,Nature or common sense!!

    If God is all-powerful, why did he create a sinner?

    your govt may be all powerful; your country's laws more powerful, yet crime
    is committed. People wrong only on their own..similarly they sin because of their little 'will''!! But unlike govts or country laws which react quickly and immediately, God's mill grinds slowly but surely!!

    Who isn't slave to Laws! Even a lion is a pussy cat in a cage..
    God has given 'will' to humans....how can then humans be slaves to Him??
    All living things are 'slaves' to air, food,water and sex; non-living things to their ' sensual stillness' and lack of 'motility'.

    God has given humans a road map to live their lives, the same as your government, institutions, family and society gives you one. Try get out of their limits and feel the brunt. Why then believe the Creator, God, for being lesser??? If He's not important to you why is His name always on your lips??

    If Moses and Jesus were there..... What would have
    been their reaction to this????

    Playing God
    Adam Rutherford meets a new creature created by American scientists – the spider-goat. It is part goat, part spider, and its milk can be used to create artificial spider’s web.

    It is part of a new field of research, synthetic biology, with a radical aim: to break down nature into spare parts so that we can rebuild it however we please.

    This technology is already being used to make bio-diesel to power cars. Other researchers are looking at how we might, one day, control human emotions by sending biological machines into our brains.

    Watch the full documentary now

    G L WILSON IS BACK!

    Welcome back Willy. If God created us he would have created along with us the possibility for atheism. If I was God I would have added to creation a few fat pinches of chance. I would make free men, not slaves.

    So you must think it's ultimately determined?

    I'm a card-carrying determinist, Fate is the only God I recognize, but I'm not quite sure what you mean by this question Caf. I was saying if God created man then God would have created him free and able to err. Creating slaves would make for poor theatre.

    Welcome back, G L!

    The problem of evil has never been answered fully by any one of those to which it is posed the most. The idea that God's only excuse is that he does not exist is met by a deep uncomprehending silence as if a twist in the tale is not permitted. "Everything's permitted." The only thing that stops us from anarchy is an obedience to human law and nothing else as is clearly shown by example.

    The ancient Greeks had a code of honour and decency and look at their gods. I understand the significance of the so called "death of God," but really, there was more than just God keeping us at least moderately in line for those two Christian millenniums. Look at the Chinese, they didn't have our God.

    "Everything is permitted" only if we permit it, and its simple as that. Only a madman, a bull goose loon, would extend philosophical nihilism to practical nihilism. Is there really nothing good in this world? Of course there is. Even if at times we can't appreciate it we know its there. There's always love and beauty if nothing else. Imagine a world bereft of those two things and this world becomes by contrast "good."
