That's a very deep question, when you say our, are you saying mankind as a whole? I have to disagree if that's the stance, for God though loves mankind, hates sin. Man by his nature is sinful, thus God hates mankind. God will destroy the world and all those in it.

My what a kind, loving, upstanding diety you have there. He supposedly created us all in his image and loves us infinitely, but he hates us so much that he wishes to destroy us...
Such love.
This is why I like paganism. Multiple gods. It makes it much easier to explain contradictions and so forth.
Of course, there's always the monotheistic view that there's only one god, and the contradictions exist because it's as bat-shit insane as its followers.
I have to disagree...for God though loves mankind...thus God hates mankind
Disagreeing with yourself, your doing it right.
Yes, and where has your "God" *been*, anyway? I mean, he was supposed to return and destroy the Earth 2000-odd years ago...
Can he make up his mind? First he loves mankind, then he hates mankind. Why destroy the world that he supposedly created. If he's so perfect, then the world would be perfect too.
And, you people have been saying that God will destroy the world for millenia now, he seems a bit indecisive...
Yes, but if all men are mortal, and Socrates is a man, and Socrates has a beard, and a beard is a woman covering for a gay man, then doesn't that make gay women with beards immortal?
Logic. It works better when you don't f*** it up!
TechnoGeek's logic is not a strong point. He, by default, equated Man with sin. So, follow the logic through. God made a fool of himself trying to save sin, which is abhorrent to Him. There can be no rapture. The Bible is hopelessly corrupt and corrupted because it came through sin, and God colluded with sin in being born as Man - remember: Man = Sin.
I could go on in this vein, but...yawn!
God made man in his image.
God made man sinful.
=> God is sinful.
God hates man because he is sinful.
=> God hates himself.
Sounds to me God is just some emo kid with too much time on his hands
Their not usually so forward about their idiotic contradictions, but there it is. In only two adjacent sentences, got loves you, and he hates you.
If god really is that much of a psycho I'd rather go to hell to be as far away from him a possible.
Man by his nature is sinful, thus God hates mankind. God will destroy the world and all those in it.
I thought He did that already around 2400 BC. If Man is by nature sinful, why did He keep Noah and his family? If Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations and walked with God, how is it that his descendants became corrupted? It sounds like God screwed up, either in His initial design or in His choice of Noah.
God made you in his image, made you sinful by default, hates you for being sinful by default, loves you and wants to help you, but can't help wanting to destroy you and everyone else everywhere, there's only one thing you can say to something like this : LOLRELIGION
Genesis 8:21: And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth ; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
Does that mean there is no need to worship god as he's going to destroy us anyway, why waste precious time going to church, reading the Bible, pretending to be good etc.
Hey now all you fundies can rape, murder and pillage, without consequence, just like you expect us Atheists and Agnostics to do, because we don't believe in god.
Re: Davros'es post
"The key word here is "Blackwhite". Applied to a opponent, it means the habit of impudently claiming that black is white, in contradiction of the plain facts...
Applied to a Party member, it means a loyal willingness to say that black is white, when Party discipline demands this.
But it means, also, the ability to believe that black is white, and more, to know that black is white, & to forget that one has ever believed in the contrary..."
Emmanuel Goldstein - 1984
We loves the peoples, yes we do, don't we precious, no, we hates them! We hates them all! Gollum, gollum!
So you acknowledge that your god is a bully, and that your devotion to it is based on fear of its wrath.
That's not news. I've known for years that's what your lot is all about.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
