If the judeo-christian god is omni-powerful why would he instruct Adam and Eve not to eat the apple?

      There’s quite a bit of evidence to argue he is actually malevolent.

        Christians then start applying “ends justifies the means” logic.

        Calvin ball. Its all just Calvin ball.

        Try telling that to a Christian and you’ll hear the battered wife type arguments come out sooooo quick.

          I really enjoy reminding them that Satan only kills about 10 people in the Bible. He temps others to do things, but he’s only responsible for a handful.

          God on the other hand… much more direct and merciless. Doesn’t really seem to give a shit at all about killing people actually. Like a kid with a magnifying glass burning ants.

            I love the story where he kills everyone in the world except for that one disfunctional family.
