Re: What do you Value/appreciate in Religion/Atheism?
※→ Elvira,
et al,
This approach is a contradiction as well.
(REMEMBER)
∀ IF the SB is All Knowing (past, present and future) ⇒ THEN ⇒ the SB knows, in advance of the creation, whether I will be evil or good.
∀ IF I commit evil, ⇒ THEN ⇒ that is because the SB/UCC set the conditions in motions such that nothing else could have happened. Because the SB/UCC had foreknowledge (Omniscient) of all future events.
∀ IF there is evil in what Adam and Eve did, ⇒ THEN ⇒ it is the WILL of the SB.
(COMMENT)
Adam and Eve could not have perpetrated any transgression in the Garden of Eden
(eating the fruit of the Forbidden Tree) that the All Knowing
(past, present and future) SB/UCC could not have seen at the time that Adam and Eve were created.
• Either it is the case that the Supreme Being (SB), the Ultimate Cosmic Creator (UCC), is NOT All Knowing (past, present and future), thus imperfect as a SB...
OR
• The SB/UCC intentionally created Adam and Eve, knowing in advance that Adam and Eve would make that transgression (when the SB/UCC created them), and purposely instilled the capacity in Adam and Eve to transgress the SB's command for the purpose of perverse divine amusement.
IF there is "evil" in Humanity, it is because the SB/UCC WILLed it to be so. The SB/UCC is all powerful. There is nothing humanity can do
(including transgressions against the SB) that is outside the WILL of the SB. Man CANNOT contravene the WILL of the All Powerful SB.
IF a transgression was made,
THEN it was because the SB WILLed it.
The alternative
(of course) is that there DOES NOT exists a invisible, all knowing, all powerfully, etc etc etc SB/UCC.
