I know there was a troll around talking about the four things that prove there is no god something about evil and the will and/or ability to do away with it, what was it?

The Epicurean paradox?

"Is [God] willing to prevent evil, but not able? then is he impotent. Is he able, but not willing? then is he malevolent. Is he both able and willing? whence then is evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"

What part of free will did you mouthbreathers not understand about The Bible? They covered this shit before you could even come up with your lame ass explanations as to why God can't exist.

I'm all for free will, but if that's the case, who do so many christians (of all type, mormon, protestant, etc) constantly try to get me to join their religion?

Another part you troglodytes fail to understand is that God is not some dictatorial puppet master imposing His will on people. We brought evil into the world, not Him. If we want to do bad things He will not get in our way. The Bible clearly points out the consequences of evil and the rewards of good. You can choose to do one or the other.

God is neither malevolent or impotent. He simply refuses to turn people into robots. If He got rid of evil, and nobody had any choice but to do and experience for Him, what's the point in having followers? It's only when people choose to do what is right, choose to obey God that He is rewarded.

I refuse to believe in something that has no evidence to exist. It's like me saying that I can travel through time, but refusing to demonstrate. Prove that god exists or leave us enlightened people in peace. You may need religion to soothe your insecurities in life. The fact is anything you do or say is totally meaningless in the long run. Some people can recognize this, others delude themselves to feel important. Theologians are the most selfish people around.

So again, I challenge you to prove his existence empirically or theoretically. Until you can do that, stfu.

Only as much as you do. I just take reality for what it is, not what I want it to be.

Actually although there have been 2 theodicies as they are called as to why free will allows the problem of evil, they are both utterly weak and bullshit arguments. University philosophy student talking here.
The God of theology doesn't exist. End of.

Actually, Satan tempted us into evil. It's not our fault the being he created presented more desirable options, and that he made us so susceptible to temptation.

Irrelevant, if the existence of EVIL is even among the reasons you think god doesn't exist, that's silly.

I don't believe in Christian Theology because its most basic concepts are borrowed from Egyptian and Mithraism. Why should I think something is genuine and true if there are numerous other divine figures in other religions that use the EXACT same shit down to the date?

Seems like bullshit to me.

Trying to prove God doesn't exist is impossible. The nature of God is entirely theological, anyone who says X is true about God is lying or stupid because we know nothing about God. The bible is not 100% verbatum because it was written by man, and mankind knows nothing beyond what their mind can comprehend.

Only things that are absolutely true about God are the following.

He might exist.

well thats also a good concept to apply to the universe as a whole
we don't 100% KNOW that anything is the way we think it is. its probable that we are all wrong. personally i refuse to believe period. whether thats in god or in evolution or anything. i think its better to understand but not accept, because accepting something as true for any other reason then to try and understand something else, is fairly ignorant

He created Satan and thusly was the first cause of evil. QED
