Eliminate birth defects and disease Eliminate the effects of old age while still limiting lifespan Build in a mechsnism to limit the size of the human population. Increase the capacity for compassion while reducing agression.
I went with .... "kill the Devil".... but I meant this metaphorically...... not literally..... because if the Devil repents and returns to G-d with his whole heart........ the Devil..... .is really no longer..... by definition...... The Devil?! I want to start an online outreach to Satanists....
I would set up my religion (the one true religion of course!) as one that you could actually earn things like superpowers, miracles, and so forth through charity and good works. That way you could actually institute real Karma. The better a person you are, the more miracles, and good luck you would earn.
Yet even if there were a god, it hasn't done so thus proving that it doesn't know what is best or how to create it.
Yet if this god were the creator of everything, it created this devil. So you want to "kill the devil" in spite of this gods wishes?
Since a basic tenant of theism is that this god created humans in its own image, we all are already this god. So, no entitlement, just acknowledging a basic belief.
and you think you know how. We were created in His image in that we are creative and we contemplate eternity.....we are not Holy however.
Yeah first lets get rid of the Devil since he is pure evil, able to get into people's minds, and attempting to ruin my plans. Second, I'm going to stop making people with mental illnesses, or with genetics that lead to lower intelligence and lower empathy because it makes no sense to make people worse. Also, I am going to get rid of the idea of eternal reward and eternal punishment. If someone fails one of their lives, they are given a chance to start over in a new life. If someone has lived on this earth and done well, that doesn't mean they should just stop. I'd have them reborn in another life. This sounds like reincarnation but I'd do something different and allow people to have memories from their past lives so they can build on their past experiences and improve. I am also going to stop hiding myself from everyone and I am going have have open visits with the people on earth to give them advise and just be there as a father. If someone is hurting others I am not going to punish them merely out of a sense of justice because there no logical reason to hurt someone simply because they hurt someone else. That is just revenge and is pointless. Punishment should be about reducing crime and rehabilitating criminals. If someone is just evil in mind then I am going to put them into a rehabilitation camp of some sort to help them sort out their issues. I'd have training times between lives or make lives more about training so that it is less directionless and more focused on improvement. I'd also not use earth as a test since as God I can easily know what choices people are going to make. Or, I can scrap all of this and just create beings as powerful and good as I am and not make lower beings at all.
You are honestly telling me you can't figure out a way, even with omnipotence and omniscience, to solve overpopulation/low resources without creating polio? I find that doubtful. Also, unless there is another God restricting resources, why are you worried about a lack of resources?
I'm gonna ace this sonofabitch... ...by refusing to spend so much as a picosecond cogitating over a question based on the most preposterous premise ever to enter the mind of man.
Yes. Trump is a con man. See Trump University, just as one example. And I have no messiah. If you are going for a half-assed attempt at lib baiting and trying to hint at Obama -- the pre-programmed response I tend to get from Trump supporters when they can't support Trump on his own merits and thus feel compelled to change the subject -- I've stated more than once that Obama should have been impeached. You'll have to do better than that.
Yeah you'd just as well take away their free-will......then it could be you and a bunch of sexbots. Seriously, you ever figure what love would be like without the possibility of rejection? Or good without the possibility of evil? I wonder.....but I think God has it figured out. You don't.
How about the same possibility of rejection that Adam and Eve had? God made his presence known to them, at least according to the story. He didn't leave his existence up to "faith." So obviously he could have a direct relationship, laying out all the details for them, while still allowing for possibility of rejection. And if good can't exist without the possibility of evil, how can there be an eternal heaven? Wouldn't people in heaven end up falling all of the time?
And Trump told lies about his own plans for health insurance. Again, lib-baiting isn't going to work here. You'll have to do better. "Buh . . . buh, that guy is a con man too!!!!!" doesn't change the fact that the other guy is a con man. I don't know how you possibly don't know this already, but there is more than one con man in existence. Donald J Trump is one of them. Your constant attempts at deflection are to be expected as Trump can't be defended on his own merits and his followers are forced to try to change the subject instead.
No I would not take away free will. I wouldn't take away evil. I don't know what you read into my post to make you think that. If you don't have anything to contribute then don't say anything at all. I don't appreciate being misrepresented.
Why would any deity do any of those things? It's silly. After all, once you're dead and get pass Judgment Day you're supposed to live for eternity in a state of bliss. So what's the big deal about having a crappy life of maybe 50-98 years if you hit the jackpot for eternal life? Of course it will suck big time if you get eternal life but you have even worse problems than when you were alive. Better read the fine print because eternal life may not be all that you imagine it to be.
I'd start from scratch, and either forget about creating humans with the ability to procreate or simply create no more than two at a time with a death penalty for killing or harming another human and a life span equal to their ability to sustain themselves without imposition on the other.
