2) All the posts that show how ridiculous it is to think god talks to you
3) Whottt bragging about the high SAT score someone else got

No, the best part of this thread is Bo saying God told him to work at quicklube, a few months later he is a fleet manager, and you guys are acting like he is an idiot who got owned.

Irony.

[Imposter]

You're right. We should all aspire to be quicklube supervisors someday. Only a selected few can receive such an honor. Would there be the same irony if god told him to quit school to work that the corner store and he eventually turned into a shift supervisor there, whottt?

You're right, being the manager at a jiffy lube is like my dream job once I'm done with school. Hopefully god can set it up for me.

Oh you're better than that, I see.

Only a selected few can receive such an honor.

I don't think honor was his motivation.

Would there be the same irony of god told him to quit school to work that the corner store and he eventually turned into a shift supervisor there, whottt?

I guess you're right...he doesn't own the company already so obviously he's an idiot.

Haha...he could still be in school where he is guaranteed a high 5 figure income for life.

In any case, I have a friend in Dallas who is the manager of a Discount Tire...he's 25 years old and he makes 50k a year.

Look down your nose at that.

[Blake]

Cuz you don't need it any more.

so your heavenly reward is to be a robot. Altogether chillins: 'yay' amen

I'm not suggesting a rejection of free will here on earth at all. My question is regarding the apparent paradox in God's motives for creation.

Again, if God in his omniscience can see the future, then by that rule he would know who is and who isn't going to .

Why would a loving God create something knowing he loves, knowing full well that it will end up burning/tortured for eternity?

What are God's motives for creation?

God's knowledge of the future is conditional. When you're saying "God can see the future" you're seeing God as a magnified creature, anthropomorphizing him. There is no predetermination by the Divine of what a human - say you, or me - will choose and how will he freely act, so no one is predestined to be saved or to burn for eternity.

There are divergent theories on how to reconcile omniscience with free will (see Molinism, for example), but in the end, the essence of the Divine Knowledge is a mysterion - something that surpasses the power of natural reason, that resides above the finite mind and whose essence can only be expressed in imperfect and analogical terms (eg the Trinity).

[I am Tom]

What I don't get if God knows the future,and has supreme powers, and is a loving God, why did he allow 3,017 deaths on 9/11?

Better yet why did he even allow Hitler to be born, let alone give him the power to kill 6 million Jews. God isn't a very nice guy.

There is so much evil, that there has to be so much good.

Devil vs God.

Sometimes bad things happen. Sometimes good things happen.

Well sons, why did I bother wasting 4 years of my life at a top college when I could have learned all of these valuable life lessons working at the mall??!! !

Sounds like a series of coin flips to me.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Sounds like a series of coin flips to me.

Or just sounds like a world where random happens and there's no greater power dictating what happens. I wonder if Angel_Luv actually believes Pat Robertson's theory that Haiti made a deal with the devil.

[balli]

lol @ this thread going from " I quit my job at the mall" to another holy war.....

Routine exposure to blasphemous, pseudo-Christian zealotry will do that.

Thank you, kind sir.

[RandomGuy]

Or just sounds like a world where random happens and there's no greater power dictating what happens.

There is a random chance, however slim that you can start to cross the street, be instantly teleported to Mars, and then be teleported back after a few seconds to the other side of the street.

That possibility exists, however small. Although to actually see it happen would probably require a length of time longer than the universe has been in existance many times over.

Randomness is all around us, and the more one reads up on current thinking about the universe's structure in quantum physics, the stranger and more random it gets.

[mouse]

Although to actually see it happen would probably require a length of time longer than the universe has been in existance many times over.

And I suppose you know how long the universe has been around from a text book you read?
