Texas: Put Creationism In Every Textbook!!!

[Utceforp]

God created everything that exists, and since evil exists, God must have created evil. Since he's omnipotent, and couldn't have accidentally created evil, God purposely created evil and purposely made humans imperfect and able to be tempted by evil, and then when the inevitable happened God punished us forever and ever for something he did. That's what religion implies.

no he didnt the demon is a rebel angel that wanted to be like god and create a tyranny he was defeated and sealed in the hell and both forces are the equilibrium of the world

Why did God create an angel with the capacity to rebel and be evil? He can't have done it by accident, being omnipotent and all.

EDIT: It double posted my message and I don't know how to get rid of it

You can't. Just leave it.

Stop plagiarising from the Babylonians.

no , its just genesis

1. Evolution has been observed.
2. Evolution is one of the best established theory known to mankind.
3. Creationism makes no falsifiable and testable claims which means it is not a hypothesis let alone a theory.

Evolution is not falsifiable or testable either.

Fail. Go retake highschool biology.

[The Tundra]

evolution as the origins of humans isn't object truth, its a theory. if we are gonna be so fucking particular about vocabulary. evolution happens and is testable, evolution as how we came to be is not testable. every scientist knows this.

Evolution has nothing to do with the origins of life. Did I not just go over this with you?

no, you just yelled at me for saying that evolution has the most scientific merit out of all the creation theories

[Divair]

no he didnt the demon is a rebel angel that wanted to be like god and create a tyranny he was defeated and sealed in the hell and both forces are the equilibrium of the world

Why did God create an angel with the capacity to rebel and be evil? He can't have done it by accident, being omnipotent and all.

Paradise Lost isn't part of the Bible.

see old bible

Old bible? Do you mean the old testament?

[Jetan]

God created everything that exists, and since evil exists, God must have created evil. Since he's omnipotent, and couldn't have accidentally created evil, God purposely created evil and purposely made humans imperfect and able to be tempted by evil, and then when the inevitable happened God punished us forever and ever for something he did. That's what religion implies.

no he didnt the demon is a rebel angel that wanted to be like god and create a tyranny he was defeated and sealed in the hell and both forces are the equilibrium of the world

Suppose this tale of amazement and wonder was true. If this "god" person is omnipotent, why did he not stop the devil from affecting the world? Because he couldn't? Then what kind of a god is that? Because he wouldn't? Then why should I serve bastard like that?

[Pandeeria]

Separation of church and state. Once you start breaching that line, you slowly descend into a Theocracy, which even a Christian like you must admit that's bad.

I have no problem with creationist ideas being taught. If it is just that, being taught as this is what this group of people at x time believed. Having it addressed as a actual scientific idea is wrong for a education system to do, though.

What about all the middle eastern countries?

Did I not tell you evolution and abiogenesis are entirely different? Yes, I did. Go back and read the post properly.

Not a creation theory. There's no such thing. We weren't created.

[Williamson]

is anyone surpised by this?

[The Holy NeoSpanish Empire]

no he didnt the demon is a rebel angel that wanted to be like god and create a tyranny he was defeated and sealed in the hell and both forces are the equilibrium of the world

its just the needed word equilibrium between evil and good you cant make everything good , there will be always evil

[Pavlostani]

You and the Muslims worship the same God though.

...not really. The main difference between Christianity and Islam is that Muslims see him as sterile (so no Jesus), and think that Mohammed was enlightened. So, in addition to being the SAME BLOODY GOD, the beliefs themselves are similar. Both religions endorse violently slaughtering heretics, and both advocate against not killing people (wait, what?). Actually, credits to Muslims, at least they are motivated to donate to charity and do other good works.

But isn't Christian god supposed to be omniscient?
So surely, he saw an angle rebelling and creating tyranny but still chose to create him.
