Summary of my questions
Rick Frey
Sorry again for doing it this way, but I was at a loss as to how to
get our miscommunication straightened out. I hope this does it. Any
questions you feel that I haven't hit clearly or yoou've been unclear on
what I've been saying, feel free to question me back.
1) How did the damager-God come about? Did he/it evolve? If so where are
the others or was there some big fight? If he/it was created, who created
he/she/it and what about them, who created them, etc.
2) Scenario: You're 12 year old son says he didn't mow the lawn (when you
specifically asked him to) because the damager-God controlled his actions
and made him not do it. He uses the same excuse for taking drugs, stealing
and beating up other kids. How do you answer him?
3) To broaden this last one, how would you deal with a criminal who on the
stand said that he didn't want to kill all those people but the
damager-God made him. How do you punish someone for something they didn't
do or weren't the motivating force behind?
4) Why do we have a Bible that tells people to look for the good, ignore the
evil, be joyful in tribulation, praise God when things go bad, love you
neighbors, treat other people as more important than yourselves when all
these things will make people get along much happier rather than teachings
like go ahead and divorce your wife if you don't like her and if someone
hurts you go ahead and get them back. Why would an evil God write or
inspire a book that teaches people how to live together peacefully?
These are my big three(the criminal one is just an extension of #2). Go ahead
and respond seperately to this and crank away. I'll be looking forward to
seeing if we can get straightened out on making clear what we've answered and
dealt with (or attempted to deal with) and what's still up in the air.
