More than once I read statements in this section that are so black and white.
I just read this:
"There is evil, because God gave us free will. Would you rather have the alternative, that we are all walking robots with no choice?"
Why aren't there other alternatives? Like:
-free will, without the option of doing evil with it
-free will, but without being so easily offended
-free will, but without the ability to hate
-free will, but without knowledge of what violence is
etc, etc,etc
Since God can apparently create as He wishes,in my eyes there really is a long, long list of what God could have created, with still letting us have this free will thingy.
In my country, Holland, we also have pure freedom of speech. Only if it is abused to publicly discriminate or incite hate/violence, it's forbidden. That actually takes away nothing from the pure freedom...with free will, God could have done the same, right?
