Characteristics of God...All-Powerful

All-Powerful....I have heard this all my life and just always nodded in agreement. But I have issues with it when I think through it with logic and reason. Let's take a quick look at child abuse. With the Penn State scandal in the news, Bernie Fine, and all the other shit I see and read about children suffering it makes me really question what I was taught about God. If God is All-Powerful then why? Go ahead fundy...tell me the line about free-will blah blah blah. Here is the implication of such a defense. An all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving and perfect God would stand idly by and allow billions of people throughout the course of history to suffer, die, and go to hell if they don't have fire insurance simply because two naive humans named Adam and Eve took a bite of some fruit from some tree in the Garden of Eden that God said not to eat. Even though prior to the decision they had NO concept of right and wrong, no concept of what consequences meant or were. In other words, one mistake by 2 people ages ago caused an eternity of pain and suffering for billions of people which all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving and perfect God allowed to happen in the first place. Anyone else see a problem with that?The fact is, shit happens. It is what it is. Keep coming back cuz it works if you work it!

God's torture chamber...the abbreviated version...

Once upon a time a great big powerful God, who knew everything, and could see everything, created a torture chamber in which to torture his own children if they listened to the devil, an evil bastard also created by the all-wise God. But don’t worry. He killed his own son so a few of his kids could escape his torture chamber…………………THE END
