man and satan done this

[violencerunsunabated]

@mr183129088 Well, as you can see from the graph in this video, the biblical God kills many times more people than Satan, the plagues put on innocent people being one example. And even if man and Satan are responsible, why doesn't God being all-powerful, put a stop to it, simply by growing these people food? Anyway, that's the question this video asks. My answer: There is no God.

@violencerunsunabated You probably dont have many answers but I can give you many but am very buzy so cant waste time arguing

[violencerunsunabated]

@mr183129088 Okay, I'll leave you alone. Because you're so busy. ;D

this is so pathetic and full of logical fallacies, it is a waste of time to watch this!!!

[violencerunsunabated]

What logical fallacies? Look, I've tried to contact you, but you don't seem to want to talk to me. Can't you at least explain what you mean?

Evil exists in the world because of our own choices and actions. God is not a controlling, puppetmaster. Why would we need him and love him if he were this way and if the world were perfect?

[jleigh355]

The "God of the Old Testament" as you say, was not violent and ruthless. He was a loving father. The people were ignorant and rejecting. God always gave them forewarnings to their actions but they didnt care. The people were selfish and malicious. Sometimes they deserved the consequences (like at Sodom and Gomorrah).

[paolopiasso]

The God of the Old Testament seems to be a violent and ruthless God.

The world today is ruled mainly by violent and ruthless people.

Maybe there is a connection.

good stat at the end ... biblical god is the nastiest creature of all myth

he kills children and burns 'souls' forever

and the arguements for this god are the most unconvincing verbal diarreah ive ever heard

Good video. Personally, while I like the music, I prefer videos that also have speech. Speaks to both the visual and the auditory parts of the brain.
