Hey everybody, sorry for the long layoff, but Open Mike Nite is back by popular demand (seriously)! You can expect a longer, more traditional blog post in the coming days, but just to get the ball rolling again, here's a quick quote by the Greek philosopher Epicurus to tide you guys over.
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then He is not omnipotent.
Is He able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is He Both able, and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is He neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
So what do you think about the validity of these assumptions?
Happy debating! With the varied religious backgrounds of my readers, I expect this one to get pretty heated, so don't disappoint. Who's going to be the first one to comment?
"Digressions, objections, delight in mockery, carefree mistrust are signs of health." -Friedrich Nietzsche Come debate anything you would like here, free-flow of ideas and spirited dialogue are encouraged!
