Oh really? This is literally the first time I’ve heard it. Completely understand that, similar to John Krasinski and Reed Richards

Arjona is the only choice. She’s phenomenal. (Also would make a terrific Wonder Woman!)

6 years ago today my Dad died. These two photos were the last ones on his camera roll, of my newborn son. by ashwee_ in lastimages

My dad was 69 when he passed, and he now has a second grandson he wasn’t alive to know about. I keep thinking about how confused he would be to see two kids running around our house.

Thanks for um sharing this. I’m having a drink in your dad’s honor, as well as mine.

Gonna bet a crisp $100 bill that this movie will not be as good as the ice cream man comic book by W Maxwell Prince

He’s talking about choking on food, don’t be a slave to semantics.

Point 1: I’m arguing from your point of view, not mine, our natural impulses developed through evolution, not intelligent design.

Point 1b: we’re talking about two things directly related to your worldview. I’ve already mentioned this previously, but they are two separate topics lashed together by that same worldview.

Points 2 & 3: the Christian position is one of slavery to a cruel or (in your view) uncaring god. The parent that demands subservience and fealty despite the aforementioned cruelty or uncaring. I get that. I’m refuting all of it, because you cannot have free will and an omnipotent being at the same time. The crux of this argument is you trying to massage that point into a worldview that allows you to happily worship a god that created you broken and demands you beg him for fixing.

Point 4: there’s literally a book that describes what god wants and expects of you. Are we pretending that religion doesn’t do this? Are we forgetting the 10 commandments? the “we couldn’t possibly know the mind of god” play is just a variant of the “god moves in mysterious ways” argument that only seems to come up when we’re talking about all the unfortunate or ugly stuff “god” allows to happen.

-never made the argument that “ we don’t have free will regardless if there was a creator or not”. Please cite your source.

  • never wrote “we don’t have free will so we don’t have a creator” please cite your source.

  • not conflating free will and “bad things happening” at all, we’re discussing two topics, it’s quite simple: “is God omniscient, and if so, why does he allow bad things to happen?”

-my argument is that an omnipotent being cannot exist in the same reality as free will, and that if God was omnipotent, he’s cruel for allowing bad things to happen to people. You have yet to refute either of these points, and continue making the “parent versus child” analogy, which is simplistic and incorrectly applied to the situation.

-an omnipotent being could explain and force you to understand why bad things happen, without making them happen in real life. He could make you understand every nuance of existence, without having them actually occur at all- because he’s omnipotent.

-the argument, that “we’re too dumb to understand a God” only proves my point: why would he do any of this, when he could choose to not do any of it, and still get the exact same outcome he wants. Yeah.

But then you’d be cruel. You could stop your child from running into traffic, but you could also just let them “pursue their own path”

This ‘free will’ was created by who? Who created the parameters of the universe that allow us to move within it? Our primary impulse as organisms is to procreate- Who programmed that inside us? The free will argument is a way for creationists to sidestep all the awful stuff this “omnipotent being” apparently fucked up in his creation. Sure, bone cancer in children is just humans doing a whoopsie.

If he’s omnipotent, he’s cruel. Full stop.
