    I never said I believed that, I don't believe people are created evil. I don't do evil things, and it's not because I'm scared of going to a bad place. Hmmmmmmmmm

    By the way, I like how you use gambling in your questions, like it's a bad thing, yet you gamble. Classic.

    Ok, so according to you, i am gonna hop in my car and drive 100kmh in a 60 mph zone. When the policeman pulls me over, i am simply gonna say, "well, according to Systems philosophy, i am going to blame the manufacturer, they built the car that will allow me to speed". Why did they build it this way, are they sick people? Its not my fault

    Secondly, WHERE DID I SAY WAS PERFECT - SIN FREE....?

    Was that car built just to speed, then yes...

    I know, it's easy to not be perfect when you think all you have to do is ask forgiveness and all is forgiven

    If you honestly believe that then you are honestly a fool.

    Secondly, if you ask for genuine forgiveness, then yes, that is why Christ died for us.

    Is that how you prove your point, by calling names? What are you, 10? I could say the same thing about you...

    If you keep repeating the same "imperfection" knowingly over and over again, is it genuine

    So, because you are driving a sports car, you speed, get into an accident, kill the passenger, you are gonna blame the death of the pasenger on the car manufacturer?

    I think most people here would laugh at you.

    Secondly, that is for God to Judge, he knows exactly your heart and thoughts

    SJD - Rostos clarified my view on my "purpose" in a following post. That is exactly how I feel. If I'm in school, my purpose is to learn and get good grades. If I'm at work, my purpose is to do the best job I can. If I'm at home, my purpose may be to take care of my family in the future. Purposes are short term. There is no long term purpose other than those you create for yourself.

    And now, for an attack on SJD's credibility in arguments.

    1. When Moses lived it was approx. some 3,450 yrs. ago and so do you know of any historian that was around during that time to account for Moses? So how are you going to get evidence outside of the Bible? Stop making ridiculously irrational statements. The only evidence we have is Moses himself in his writings in the Holy Bible. He said they wandered in the desert for 40 yrs. then they wandered in the desert for 40 yrs.

    So let's go through this, briefly, because it won't take long.
    Let's pretend it isn't Moses. Let's say it's...Harry Potter. Let's take the actual Harry Potter books. Let's say that 1000 years down the line (assuming we haven't wiped ourselves out) the Harry Potter books are all intact, but for whatever reason, there is no mention of the author, no one has any idea who wrote them. Everyone presumes it's Harry Potter and that the books are 100% true. Is that reasonable? The only evidence we have of Harry Potter's existence is Harry Potter's writings. Is that good enough evidence?

    Your argument fails fundamentally. Extrapolating beyond Moses...the only evidence we have for god, the only real evidence, is the book you claim he wrote...well...that doesn't exactly work.

    And at #2 LOLOLOLOL. So basically, god let humans live a long time... then changed his mind... then gradually increased our lifespan by a few years every decade or so... and now is allowing us technology to live perhaps hundreds of years. Yeah, ok.

    1. When Moses lived it was approx. some 3,450 yrs. ago and so do you know of any historian that was around during that time to account for Moses? So how are you going to get evidence outside of the Bible? Stop making ridiculously irrational statements. The only evidence we have is Moses himself in his writings in the Holy Bible. He said they wandered in the desert for 40 yrs. then they wandered in the desert for 40 yrs.

    So let's go through this, briefly, because it won't take long.
    Let's pretend it isn't Moses. Let's say it's...Harry Potter. Let's take the actual Harry Potter books. Let's say that 1000 years down the line (assuming we haven't wiped ourselves out) the Harry Potter books are all intact, but for whatever reason, there is no mention of the author, no one has any idea who wrote them. Everyone presumes it's Harry Potter and that the books are 100% true. Is that reasonable? The only evidence we have of Harry Potter's existence is Harry Potter's writings. Is that good enough evidence?

    Your argument fails fundamentally. Extrapolating beyond Moses...the only evidence we have for god, the only real evidence, is the book you claim he wrote...well...that doesn't exactly work.

    And at #2 LOLOLOLOL. So basically, god let humans live a long time... then changed his mind... then gradually increased our lifespan by a few years every decade or so... and now is allowing us technology to live perhaps hundreds of years. Yeah, ok.

    You may think helping your sick mum has a purpose, at the end of the day, i may think shooting myself up with heroin has just as much purpose as your life.

    Subjective.

    But is that really true?

    Sorry, but a sports car can go fast or slow. If you read a little more carefully, I said if a the car was built juuuuuuust fooooooor speeeeeed, then yes. Is that slow enough for you

    Another area where your analogy is flawed. I have a choice to get into a car and drive it fast. I had no say in my being created "evil". And again, I'm not blaming anyone for anything, remember...

    God says you are bad enough---by nature. Man in his natural state does wicked deeds, thinks evil thoughts, goes to bad places, rejects Jesus Christ---because he has an evil heart, No one is naturally good. If you are good, why not become acquainted with Jesus, who is supremely good?

    What are you slow? I never said man had no option but to "sin" (do bad things). This is exactly what I said....

    God created us to do evil and gave us free will to do evil things , but then we're not suppose to do them What kind of sick twisted shit is this 

    Again, this is not what I believe, I'm just trying to make sense of this wacko religion....

    Hang on, hang on, hang on.

    Listen to yourself.

    In one sentence you said "God created us to do evil and gave us free will to do evil things , but then we're not suppose to do them"

    You need to rephrase it and think like this,

    God gave the ABILITY to do evil things, by our free will, we can chose to do those evil things or NOT to do those evil things.

    As i said, the price of free will is that people will CHOSE to do evil. It is YOUR CHOICE.

    There is no issue in having the ability. If we dont have the ability, then we dont have free will.

    The world is a completely different place without free will. We will be robots, this forum wouldnt exist, you couldnt have sex before marriage, there will be no casinos, brothels, doubt there would be any rich people, it will be a completely different place.

    Maybe that place is heavan?

    No, I don't need to rephrase things, you do to fit your agenda. 

    According to your buddy SJD, man is created evil. Again, this is what he posted. You guys need to get on the same page.

    "God says you are bad enough---by nature. Man in his natural state does wicked deeds, thinks evil thoughts, goes to bad places, rejects Jesus Christ---because he has an evil heart, No one is naturally good. If you are good, why not become acquainted with Jesus, who is supremely good?"

    Again, if you are naturally evil, wouldn't you be more likely to do evil things??????????? Stop trying to switch things around. It won't work with me.

    Your problem is that you have a gripe with God because he gave us FREE WILL.

    Do you have a problem with free will?

    Yes he gave us the ability to do evil things, the only reason why is that evil is a consequence of free will.

    What do u want? are u that confused?

    Do you want free will with an INABILITY to do evil things?

    No, I'm not the one with the problem. I don't need to change peoples words around to suit my own needs ( for example, I didn't say the ability to do evil things, I said he created us naturally evil). I have no gripe with god, because they're is no such thing. I'm not confused, but you seemed to be. 
    Go back and read post #1769 what I said again slowly, because it has nothing to do with the questions you are asking. Maybe instead of asking questions, you start answering some. But again, that is what you do best. Better yet, how about some more analogies or some of your favorite sayings

    Go back and read post #1769 what I said again slowly, because it has nothing to do with the questions you are asking. Maybe instead of asking questions, you start answering some. But again, that is what you do best. Better yet, how about some more analogies or some of your favorite sayings

    God originally created man without sin, man chose to disobey God, that is when sin came into the world.

    Maybe so, but she created him evil, so what do you expect

    "God says you are bad enough---by nature. Man in his natural state does wicked deeds, thinks evil thoughts, goes to bad places, rejects Jesus Christ---because he has an evil heart, No one is naturally good. If you are good, why not become acquainted with Jesus, who is supremely good?"

    JUST ONE.

    1.  Your mom tells you to steal.
    2.  Your dad commands you to kill someone.
    3.  You have to lie to honor the sabbath.
    4.  A starving person steals a loaf of bread (if he doesnt, he is not honoring the temple of god in the body)

    Those are all 10 commandments based.  There are literally hundreds more moral contradictions in the bible - BECAUSE THE BIBLE PRETENDS THAT MORALITY IS ABSOLUTE - and it cannot stick to its own rules.

    But lets start with those.
