I know! Don't you hate it when people ask questions they are already sure of, and then vote for the people who agree with them? Your question made me laugh!

Is this supposed to be an example of a thought-provoking question?
Here's a better one:
"We can ask, is God good because to be good just is to be whatever God is; or is God good because God has all the properties of goodness? If we choose the former answer we again find that goodness is arbitrary, since it would be whatever God happened to be, even if God were a sadist. So we must choose the second option: God is good because he has all the properties of goodness. But this means the properties of goodness can be specified independently of God and so the idea of goodness does not in any way depend upon the existence of God. Hence there is no reason why a denial of God's existence would necessarily entail a denial of the existence of goodness."

I love thought provoking questions, lol...but not all the questions here provoke thoughts or apparently provoked any thinking prior to asking them.

Because religious people are used to blindly following things other people made up, so any thinking they have to do makes them upset.

Do you mean those champions of logic like:
If God is all powerful, can he make a rock to heavy for him to lift?

I'm not sure but I bet there are not many loose limbs around your place. God still loves you and The lord Jesus awaits to welcome you into his fold. God bless.
