Is50% good+50% evil=God? I ask this because every thing has an opposite answer this I am confused.
Nope... God is 100% good. The devil is 100% bad. Of course the devil twists things to make them seem like 50% good & bad are God but they are not.
For mankind, there are two opposites that dwell in man's nature. The positive and the negative. Everyone has the ability to be good or not. It is their free will that makes the decisions. God gave man the free will. But in God, there is NO duality of good and evil. God is all good. Ever since God cast out Lucifer and his followers out of Heaven, Lucifer has made it his work to undermine every work of God and God's people.
God is an ultimate positive force, satan is the ultimate negative force, like a battery, nothing works unless the two are working. Somebody show me different
Well, what is it you want to hear then?
No, God is 100% good, 100% righteous and 100% just - and God is not a battery.
Canada sweetie, you speak of the full 100% God +the full 100% satan= the all mighty god, you were right on; when you mentioned, the 100% God + satan...
..
I'm confused... could you explain in more detail?. And I'm sorry but I've been rather slow today.Hahaha
Canada sweetie you need as much of day as night, as much as wrong as right inhale as much as exhale. Now think about the battery.
I get what you're saying now. Wow.. I am super slow today.. haha
God kills children accourding to the bible. So the only answer that makes sense is that god is 100% good.
"good" and "bad" are relative terms though. If "murder" is killing another living being, and your God declares murder to be a sin, and going into another country and killing their people is murder (after all, God doesn't distinguish between killing for "good reason" or because someone wronged you or your president told you to, or someone did something you believe to be terribly wrong - taking anothers life, for any reason is murder) - those who fight wars are still murdering other people, even if they do it "in God's name"... Where do you blur the lines? Is this good? Or is it bad?
I believe in the duality of all things and that for all things there exists a polar opposite. But don't you believe that your God is the creator of all things? Which would make ALL things a part of God, right? That would include that "God" made "Satan"... so in essence, good & evil are two different degrees of the same thing. "Satan" would be a part of "God" and how can "God" not love any of her children?
I'm sure many will disagree and that's fine. But that is how it makes sense to me. The polarity game.
Speechlesstx the battery analogy is a metaphur. Could good and evil be separated. Could the poles of a natural magnet be separated?
Pixie mama, you are right on the spot with your thoughts. Good doesn't work without evil. In fact the thin line that separate them cannot be seen by hubble telescope.
Freethinka, God does not operate according to the natural laws of physics - He created them. :DQuote:

And if that is what Freethinka means then yes, evil and good will be separated one day. For now though, they are co-mingle on Earth until the rapture comes.
Of course Freethika does not really want to know anything, only cause trouble, but of course trying to ask a question where they know the answer only to try and bait others with questions that can not be easily answered since it all requires faith and belief.
But God is godd, all good, but man and all other things have evil in and around them. God has no evil.
As for as killing and death, there is of course a difference stated in the bible between killing and murder.
It's a yin yang deal. You can't have good without evil, how would you benchmark what is good if you had nothing evil to compare it to? Same works vice versa.
Think of god as the ultimate embodiment of good, and the devil as evil incarnate.
Do you mean God is only called good because there is evil? Like we refer to water as hot, cold, and worm. Water is hot because it is not cold. Water is cold because it is not hot. If water was all one temperature, we would not refer to it's temperature. So, if there were no evil, we would not call God good. We would just call God... God. Is that what you are getting at?
Forget the battery and read the bible instead, you are trying to figure out God which is impossible.
Speechlesstx, natural law is God, is what I hope you are tryin' to say, if you turn this around, the other way, it is a lie, then, a book was written, to explain how God created the universe. Think... If nature isn't God how could you live without it...Quote:

Is it true Martin Luther, heretic translated the King james version of the bible, on a diet of worms when imprisoned by the then king for not accepting the writings to be true. Wasn't this a fact?.Quote:

Marily is your holy ghost, as holy, as your holy devil? Please give me the honest drop dead truth, or nothing at all.
I perceive that you are an unbeliever, so far you have only been quarreling, and since only fools insist in quarreling , find someone else to debate with

I agree with you Speech. Even I find his line of questioning to be spurious and argumentative. He seems to post whatever comes to the top of his head whether it's relevant or not. I do see him/her trying to paint you into a corner and trying very hard to do it.
Yes, I find it sad that some atheists take such a tact. It paints a bad picture of atheism, and when someone such as myself wishes to learn about beliefs, the shield automatically goes up and I cannot find out very much.
There was an eternity of time during which God existed without the presence of evil and during which time he was fully a righteous needing nothing to make him complete. In short, he was working perfectly well without the opposites to his Holy character. If we take the position that he was lacking something because Satan and evil were missing from that eternity of time, then we are postulating a completely non-scriptural concept and we would not be describing the biblical God but merely an imagined one.Quote:

Also, the Bible tells us that God views evil as unnacceptable in his universe and promises to irradicate it. That also goes contrary to the necessity-of-evil idea.
Revelation 21:4
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."
1/3 APPLE+ 1/3 ORANGE+ 1/3 ORANGE= 1 APPLE/ORANGE.
This violates the law of non contradiction which states that two particles X and Y cannot be the same state at the same time.
Like it cannot be rainy or sunny at the same time or light and dark.

Only fools believe!! All I am asking for, is to see proof. Is an insult proof Mariy?Quote:

Or available from Amazon under the title MY SCIENCE THESIS- by Stephen A Jeffrey.
The maths of the big bang is wrong it violates the law of non contradiction that is why I wrote this mathematical parody of the big bang theory of everything.

Aircloud; where Freethinka live sometime we get the rain and the sun at the same time, we call it the devil and his wife fighting for potcake. Also darkness and light in the same place, was happening as far back, as my childhood twice daily. Aircloud explain this phenomenin.Quote:

I don't see how your argument about apples and oranges is anything but a strawman argument. It doesn't pertain to the real world. And your first post on this site about numerology further suggests to me that you have no mathematical or scientific background. Please keep your claptrap to yourself unless you have something to say that makes sense.
Freethinka, you are just being plain argumentative. "Only fools believe" is an incredibly narrow world view. I live next door to the local vicar. While I do not believe what he has chosen to dedicate his life to, I still believe that he is one of the most emotionally intelligent people I have ever met, and if I ever have a time in my life when I am not sure how to go on, I'm certain he will be one of the people I will look up and ask for advice. He helps the people in my community so much, and we are all grateful to him for that.
Believing certainly does not make you a fool.
Mate, why are you asking a question about a being you do not believe in?
That's like saying "the earth is flat. why are planets round?"
God is 100% good. Get over it.
Freethinka is asking questions about, the said being, that you quote. I do not believe in, I actually do not, because around me in my country where I live, it is sickening how individuals live, rant and rave 365 days a year, about this belief. These characters are wicked, corrupt, to say the best, devils that use that belief. To literally destroy a beautiful paridise . They (believers) are everywhere, like a bad infection spreading what isn't proven.. I can now apply your last remark about a flat earth, in its proper context: The earth is flat when it is dominated by something unseen and hoped for and need prayers and faith for it to operate. I see where we get our stress from, like Freethinka said, when you believe, it is exactly the same, as hanging on by a thread in the abyss.Quote:

Why do you always refer to yourself in the third person? Some in this world would see that as a symptom of a mental disorder.

It makes (Freethinka) I do have a right to use (freethinka) as much as I like, what is in my head is mine, as the same for you... What frightens me is people who have things in their head and do not reveal it to anyone... I look at that to be a mental disorder...

I say "I'm not going to heaven, because I don't believe in it" They say, "Well then, you're going to hell!" I say "How can I if I believe there's no heaven? Without god there's no satan, without heaven, there's no hell" Which would be completely opposite to someone with religion and faith in their life :)

Excellent. The question is answered.
What's wrong with believing free?
What's "sickening" about believing in a god who loves everyone unconditionaly, who heals people, who forgives you no matter what, who has a plan for each persons life that is better than an average life, who died for all of us?
Cal,
NeedKarma sees nothing wrong with that. NeedKarma believes all people can live with their beliefs as NeedKarma does. NeedKarma worries about people that strike down others for their beliefs.
There is nothing wrong with god who love everyone, he is through and in every thing so is satan, How could you identify spirits under a belief not knowing which is which?Quote:
