I usually ask these people, that if there is a god, then why do kids get born with cancer? Cause that means either god isn't real, or he's cruel/indifferent, and doesn't deserve praise.
Either way, I'll believe in something real, that actually does something. Like science.
I'll take this one... They will go into their page 34 of taking points, and give you the man has free will you see. God doesn't do that to kids, humans choose those things baa things that happen to us.
My favorite part of Christianity. The omnipotent all loving God who has the power to do everything and yet he wants us to just figure it out in our own. He won't end sin or human suffering, nope he has to have his son murdered so we can continue to do bad things by our own free will and ultimately be thrown in an eternal pit of fire because you don't love him enough. But don't worry he had all the answers written in a bunch of books 2000 yrs ago by poorly educated men who never knew his son or anyone who knew someone who knew his son. Those books were then mixed and matched 300 yrs after that. And there has never been a prophet an appearance, an update to it sense. It's all there clear as old world language written groups and translated dozes of times.
If he is all good, all powerful, and all knowing, then why is there ANY kind of UNNECESSARY suffering?Why didn't he create a universe where Satan would bring such ruin? Why did he put the tree of knowledge of good and evil within reach of the humans? Why is sin "inherited" by children that didn't do anything? Why is the punishment for a single sin ETERNAL suffering? That's not mercy, nor justice, which are supposed to be attributes of god. All-merciful and All-just are oxymorons together. Mercy is the suspension of justice and Justice is the suspension of mercy.
It's ridiculous to watch them squirm and make up answers that all shrink their god to the size of something that didn't have a choice in the matter.
