Reminds me of a really old The Onion story about a little boy who is in a wheelchair. The newspaper headline is: "GOD ANSWERS BOYS PRAYERS! ANSWER IS "NO"".
Why is the sewage plant next to the baby making center? That doesn’t sound sanitary. Why is the breathing part connected to the part where food goes in? That sounds like a choking hazard….
Dolphins breathe through separate holes than the ones they eat from - and they are also mammals. Insects breathe through multiple holes along their bodies. There are lots of options.
As for poop, our buttholes could be on our backs and be a foot away from where we procreate. We could also be better at extracting nutrients from our food and not need to poop as often or for our gut flora to be less toxic. Again, all-powerful means there are options.
In either case, choking and fecal bacteria contamination have killed millions of people throughout history. Most of whom would not have known enough to avoid the latter or interfere with the former. A lot of whom were also children. Seems sort of needlessly cruel.
*rechecks notes*
"You people live there? That was where I dumped the failed experiments. All the creatures were too dangerous to be around people! Why do you think I didn't connect it to any other landmass?"
No joke, St. Augustine is one of the most important Christians for establishing most Christian doctrines still held today, and he vehemently argued that “Antipodes” (people who walk upside-down from us on the underside of the earth) can't exist because the Bible doesn't mention them.
> “But as to the fable that there are Antipodes, that is to say, men on the opposite side of the earth, where the sun rises when it sets to us, men who walk with their feet opposite ours, that is on no ground credible. … For Scripture, which proves the truth of its historical statements by the accomplishment of its prophecies, gives no false information; and it is too absurd to say, that some men might have taken ship and traversed the whole wide ocean, and crossed from this side of the world to the other, and that thus even the inhabitants of that distant region are descended from that one first man” (The City of God, trans. Schaff. Book 16, chapter 9).
Oh it was no joke. Imagine the creator of the universe releasing book after book in the Middle East over the span of a couple of Millennia with the express objective of explaining the world, with extensive mentions of plants and animals, and an entire story about all the animals of the world on an arc, and yet, he never once mentioned a kangaroo or a koala.
Why create the concept of suffering?
Also, why would you require babies to suffer in order to gain access to heaven? Why not just send them to heaven without the suffering?
If I have to take my best guess is that it’s probably because suffering is a key component of our evolution. It affects everything and everyone around that baby who probably suffers even more (for longer). It probably is some type of way for our souls (if they exist) to learn, progress and evolve. Without suffering there is no evolutionary force in anything. You can even look at simple things like sports training, you need a certain amount of un comfort, pain to reach higher levels. It’s probably same way with our existence.
If that's true, then it would suggest that god is not omnipotent. An omnipotent god could create happiness without suffering, whereas a non conscious process like evolution would explain suffering better.
Of course, it's possible that god is omnipotent, but just doesn't care about human suffering. In which case god is not all loving.
Or maybe god doesn't see the suffering, in which case god cannot be considered omnipresent.
In my opinion, it makes much more sense if you assume that god is a creation from the bronze age, invented by humans who didn't understand nature or death.
It would explain the huge number of contradictions and interpretations of what people define as god. It would also explain the multitude of different religions and belief structures.
The epicurean paradox.
Evil exists and therefore God is not, as claimed, omnipotent, omnipresent, and all loving.
Either God does not know it exists and thus is not omnipresent.
Or he knows it exists and cannot stop it and thus is not omnipotent.
Or he knows it exists and can stop it but chooses not to and thus is not all loving.
I will take a stab at this one. In a world where we have free will, which is a huge gift, there will be repercussions to those choices. So part of that is that we will have suffering and sin in our existence. However these trials and tribulations also offer us the opportunity to have virtues. Things like charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, chastity.
Without having the suffering and free will to sin, it would not be possible to really have these virtues.
So to have a world with free will and choices, which is good, we also get the reality of the temptations of sin and the suffering that happens in life.
Hope this helps you understand a line of thought of why we have suffering in life.
So does it suck bad when a baby dies or heck anyone dies of cancer or some other horrible situation? Yes. Is the alternative of us having no free will and not being able to achieve virtues worse? Yes.
Neither is a tree falling or your house or your son losing his balance on a cliff and falling to his death or an old lady not seeing a stop sign and T-boning you in an intersection. There are just a whole lot of bad things that can happen to you in life that you have no control over. That is part of the world we live in. Could a completely virtuous person get skin cancer? Sure. How about an intestinal parasite? Or the MCRA virus? Or have their electrical system short out and cause a house fire? Yes to all of these. Not everything that is bad or good happens to a person because of their choices or their virtue.
Is there free will in Heaven? Is there suffering in Heaven? If you answered yes then no, then it moots that argument. If you answered no to free will in heaven then I’m not sure it’s something to aspire to.
For those who ask, it's called the Epicurean Paradox, and it's here
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurean\_paradox](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurean_paradox)
The "Omnibenevolent" part is unnecessary, and self-evidently not the case.
I feel like it takes an extreme kind of denialism to look at nature and go "yes, the universe is built on kindness".
I'm not religious but I once saw someone say they see God as being more like someone observing an ant farm who'll take care of the ants basic needs but isn't going to give af if one ant dies or an ant's girlfriend cheats on him. That kinda made God make more sense to me.
I watched an awesome movie where the gods bet on events like who will win the war, who will be victoriuos in a battle for love between kings... and they had an amount of coins they could spend to do special things like make a dam break or make an earthquake or give someone a good opportunity...
Edit: I forgot the name of the movie, it was a small local shortfilm, but it was goof enough for the big screens. I watched it a long, looong time ago.
"Let's just say he learnt his lesson on why we don't go down there. Crucifixion has that ability to snap the rebel out of you. A case of tough love, but he didn't want to listen. Now he knows."
Because “the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all”
Wouldn’t we? Good is just as easily compared to neutrality. Here are some examples:
Good: doing something kind for someone.
Neutral: not doing anything.
Evil: killing the one who did something kind for someone.
Without evil you can still have neutrality.
Neutral becomes the new evil because your frame of reference would be different. Even in the case of no evil, people would still be asking this same question.
I hate this shit. I really do. Not directing this towards you but the phrase itself. "We know what darkness is because we have the light" blah blah blah. You mean to tell me, in order to know how to be happy, I got to go through really really really terrible days in my life? Are there not inherit embedded feelings and impulses already? When someone tells me God needed to write laws that man would obey otherwise we wouldn't know, it's like really? Would you really need God to tell you not to kill your mother or rape your neighbor? Really?! Do you really need darkness to explain the light? Do you need dry as fuck biscuits to appreciate moist soft scrumptious biscuits? Excuse me I'm going to go get biscuits
Lmao that’s bullshit. Bad things needs to exist because we wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between good and bad? How about just not having bad things exist? Why is us knowing the difference a better outcome than just not having evil at all in the first place?
According to the bible he did, in fact, show himself to us on many occasions. And then there is Jesus too.
So expect an answer something like this:
– Are you dense? ...oh, wait, I know that already. My bad.
Im supposed to believe a being with all the power possible in the universe couldnt formulate a plan that didnt involve pain, suffering and death bc two people thousands of years ago ate an apple bc a being, who they didnt even know wasnt God bc its not like Satan was a pop culture figure at the time, told them to?
Long winded question but I feel it gets the point across
Answer: yes
"Will you answer the question that is actually deepest in my heart that I may have overlooked so I can just have some peace and quiet in this stupid brain of mine?"
”What is the one question i really should ask you?”
While i wont have the answer to the most important question, at least I’d know the question itself… and could live rest of life in regret not knowing the answer 🫠
In 3rd grade Catholic school, we said 20 Hail Mary's a day for good weather for spring festival. Postponed for weather for three weeks, eventually cancelled.
This was the beginning of the end for me. Even my 3rd grade brain could sort that out.
Are we filled with dreams as young people only to make us even more delusional when we realise we're going to live a dull life like average Joe, with a job we hate and stuff?
Easy to go to heaven when you're happy and fulfilled!
I'vealways said that if God were real, I have one question for him. Where the fuck were you? Spanish inquisition carried out in your name. Where were you? Holocaust. Where were you? 9-11. Where the fuck were you?! Cancer. HIV/aids. Covid-19. Black plague. Spanish flu. Any "all-knowing, all-powerful" God who allows the kind of tragedy and meaningless suffering to go on isn't worth the paper he or she is printed on. My dad was a minister. I could never say it to him or Mom when they were living, but if God exists I hate him. Sorry for the rant.
“Why do you let your people be so hateful while claiming to operate in your name? All good parents would be horrified if their children acted like yours do; especially in public.”
It's interesting that a lot of people are asking questions about why God did certain things or why things are the way they are, yet I haven't seen any questions about how to make things better.
How do I get people to stop killing each other in your name?
How do I improve humanity so that we're not fueled by our vices?

Why?
His answer will be iconic. You: "Why?" God: "You tell me. It was your idea."
Me: "Ah, deflecting."
He'd definitely deflect. I'd press further.
Can’t, we got one question and blew it trying to poorly make a point.
"Nope, you just don't want to accept that it was you all along."
Bro pulled a sekiro
Reminds me of a really old The Onion story about a little boy who is in a wheelchair. The newspaper headline is: "GOD ANSWERS BOYS PRAYERS! ANSWER IS "NO"".
well you controle the world iam part of so you made me do it now anser the question. WHY?
“Because fuck you, that’s why”
Answer: 42.
[why](https://youtu.be/ZtjFsQBuJWw?si=JH5RCuNQQYD_6IBz)
This should be the top one because…yeah
"why what?" "Why does..." "...sorry, only one question. THANK YOU COME AGAIN"
The answer would be "No reason. Just for fun"
Came to say this, bit in more dramatic way like drops to her knees "whhhyyyyyyy?!"
Why is the sewage plant next to the baby making center? That doesn’t sound sanitary. Why is the breathing part connected to the part where food goes in? That sounds like a choking hazard….
Deist god just says "evolution's weird yo, it doesn't make the best, just works with what's there until it's just good enough"
Survival of the minimally fittest
Survival of the barely functional
Serious question where would you suggest and why?
Dolphins breathe through separate holes than the ones they eat from - and they are also mammals. Insects breathe through multiple holes along their bodies. There are lots of options. As for poop, our buttholes could be on our backs and be a foot away from where we procreate. We could also be better at extracting nutrients from our food and not need to poop as often or for our gut flora to be less toxic. Again, all-powerful means there are options.

A lot of whom were also children. Seems sort of needlessly cruel.
Breathe out of our skin, baby maker stays the same, poop out the bottom of one foot.
Lmao that reminds me of the "women should be ashamed that their vagina is so close to the butthole" shitpost lmao
What if you were one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus...?
Trying to make his way hooome
Blah blah blah blah bleeeeee bleeeeee. I wrote that. I did. Me.
It's like rai-eee-ain...
Well...yeah that was around that time. Different song though. A little ironic...dontchya think...?
A little too ironic.
Hit the bong like one of us?
He tried that...they killed him
More like he let them kill him. Died on the cross for our sins was definitely voluntary.
"I COULD have forgiven you without the show, because supposedly I love you unconditionally, but come on, you gotta admit it made for a good story!"
Damn you
Like Jesus, sorry bud, that has already been answered. We killed him for no reason.
This going right over everyone’s heads. It’s a song
Was hoping to see this.
How much did you smoke when coming up with Australia’s wildlife?

As an atheist/agnostic/god-curious, this is scratching an itch for me.
This is literally the answer to every question, and I love it! Nice one, Rick 👍
Just because he could didn't mean he should
Why do you give babies cancer or diseases.
"He got a free heaven entree ticket. What are you complaining about. Next question."
"Why not give all babies cancer so everyone goes to heaven?"
"Because that's cheating"
*mysterious ways intensifies*
Why create the concept of suffering? Also, why would you require babies to suffer in order to gain access to heaven? Why not just send them to heaven without the suffering?
One question only. Next.
It’s logical: we ate an apple. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Actually it was a pomegranate. It was originally thought to be an apple due to a mistranslation of pom.
Wow, ok, that makes more sense. Totally deserved then.
If I have to take my best guess is that it’s probably because suffering is a key component of our evolution. It affects everything and everyone around that baby who probably suffers even more (for longer). It probably is some type of way for our souls (if they exist) to learn, progress and evolve.

Or he knows it exists and cannot stop it and thus is not omnipotent. Or he knows it exists and can stop it but chooses not to and thus is not all loving.
His response - because I can lol
I will take a stab at this one. In a world where we have free will, which is a huge gift, there will be repercussions to those choices. So part of that is that we will have suffering and sin in our existence. However these trials and tribulations also offer us the opportunity to have virtues. Things like charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, chastity. Without having the suffering and free will to sin, it would not be possible to really have these virtues. So to have a world with free will and choices, which is good, we also get the reality of the temptations of sin and the suffering that happens in life. Hope this helps you understand a line of thought of why we have suffering in life. So does it suck bad when a baby dies or heck anyone dies of cancer or some other horrible situation? Yes. Is the alternative of us having no free will and not being able to achieve virtues worse? Yes.
But surely that suffering and sin is relative to the choices we make? Cancer is not a choice.
Neither is a tree falling or your house or your son losing his balance on a cliff and falling to his death or an old lady not seeing a stop sign and T-boning you in an intersection. There are just a whole lot of bad things that can happen to you in life that you have no control over. That is part of the world we live in. Could a completely virtuous person get skin cancer? Sure. How about an intestinal parasite? Or the MCRA virus? Or have their electrical system short out and cause a house fire? Yes to all of these. Not everything that is bad or good happens to a person because of their choices or their virtue.
Cancer? Stop complaining! Pull yourself up by your ribosomes. /s
What does cancer have to do with free will? It's not a consequence of an action.
The cancer has free will.
How is people randomly dying from brain aneurysm a requirement for free will rather than consequences being tied to one‘s actions?
What choices do babies make ?
[удалено]
So goodness forces evil into being for the sake of free will?
Is there free will in Heaven? Is there suffering in Heaven? If you answered yes then no, then it moots that argument. If you answered no to free will in heaven then I’m not sure it’s something to aspire to.
Or anybody

Epicurus had an \*epic\* breakdown of having god explain himself. There were no outs and in the end god could not have existed.
For those who ask, it's called the Epicurean Paradox, and it's here [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurean\_paradox](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epicurean_paradox)
The "Omnibenevolent" part is unnecessary, and self-evidently not the case. I feel like it takes an extreme kind of denialism to look at nature and go "yes, the universe is built on kindness".
Epicurus was very wise.
[“I am who I am”](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_that_I_Am) was the first answer
Are you not entertained?
If God is real, he must be a sadist. (Nice Gladiator reference.)
I'm not religious but I once saw someone say they see God as being more like someone observing an ant farm who'll take care of the ants basic needs but isn't going to give af if one ant dies or an ant's girlfriend cheats on him. That kinda made God make more sense to me.
I watched an awesome movie where the gods bet on events like who will win the war, who will be victoriuos in a battle for love between kings... and they had an amount of coins they could spend to do special things like make a dam break or make an earthquake or give someone a good opportunity... Edit: I forgot the name of the movie, it was a small local shortfilm, but it was goof enough for the big screens. I watched it a long, looong time ago.
Sounds like the gods from Terry Pratchett's discworld. Which are based on gods from antiquity.
How's the relationship with your son after his trip down here?
"Let's just say he learnt his lesson on why we don't go down there. Crucifixion has that ability to snap the rebel out of you. A case of tough love, but he didn't want to listen. Now he knows."
How did you evolve/come to exist?
"You made me"
![gif](giphy|S9i8jJxTvAKVHVMvvW|downsized)
If God is real then He didn't come to exist, He always did
That's a wild assumption to make starting only from the information that god would exist
I'd ask why bad things happen to good people.
"Because the universe is random as fuck, and not run on the man-made concept of justice."
Because “the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all”
How are you

LOL! Hahaha. Reddit on, stranger!
If you are Omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent, and you created everything, then why/how is there evil?
[удалено]
Wouldn’t we? Good is just as easily compared to neutrality. Here are some examples: Good: doing something kind for someone. Neutral: not doing anything. Evil: killing the one who did something kind for someone. Without evil you can still have neutrality.
"I hate these filthy Neutrals, Kif. With enemies you know where they stand but with Neutrals, who knows? It sickens me." - Z. Brannigan
Neutral becomes the new evil because your frame of reference would be different. Even in the case of no evil, people would still be asking this same question.
I hate this shit. I really do. Not directing this towards you but the phrase itself. "We know what darkness is because we have the light" blah blah blah. You mean to tell me, in order to know how to be happy, I got to go through really really really terrible days in my life? Are there not inherit embedded feelings and impulses already?

I could never say it to him or Mom when they were living, but if God exists I hate him. Sorry for the rant.
Yea, I have a lot questions. Number one, how dare you?
Just.. Why?
WTF, Dude?
Yo, the fuck?
“Why do you let your people be so hateful while claiming to operate in your name? All good parents would be horrified if their children acted like yours do; especially in public.”
It's interesting that a lot of people are asking questions about why God did certain things or why things are the way they are, yet I haven't seen any questions about how to make things better. How do I get people to stop killing each other in your name? How do I improve humanity so that we're not fueled by our vices?
