Seriously, how arrogant do you have to be to assume the authority to tell others what some type of divine creator wants and doesn't want. Especially when that divine creator lacks any semblance of definition?

You know nothing. God has spoken to me in a way you would not understand. How can you not believe that God loves you? He watches over you and cares for you more than you can ever know.

Only joking, load of old rubbish. I'm with you buddy!

Yeah I think that is pretty arrogant. I hate it when people think they can speak for him. God speaks for himself and He does it in whatever way He sees fit. Thats just what He is. He is the Divine Creator. He made everything unique, He took the time and He did it. I agree with you though. People shouldn't abuse their authority by trying to tell other people what a "divine creator" would want. Their's only one Divine Creator-He speaks for Himself. :)

Now that is a difficult question. But Devine Creator does not lack any semblance of definition or else it would not be possible for him to be the Devine Creator. You have already named two of His attributes, He is Devine (God all powerful) and he is the Creator, to be the Creator he has to be creative, which means that He has the ability to conceptualize and design.

I’m not sure audacious is the correct term; maybe presumptuous, egotistical, retarded, or stupid would be better - but arrogant certainly qualifies.

Solly –

Atheists do not psycho-analyze God(s); at least no more seriously than they do Bugs Bunny or Santa. However, as all gods are inventions of the human imagination that create and believe in them, it is fair to examine the intellectual nature of believers through the purported teachings and actions of their gods.

The only thing more audacious would be to say that you ARE god. Fortunately you are unlikely to have anyone saying that at a kid's birthday party.

Yeah well that's what the Bible is for. Unfortunately, its been translated to many times that its a bit off...and even more unfortunately there are people who call themselves christian and act like they're God. But that doesn't mean Christians are stupid for believing that they believe, not all of them think they can be God.

I agree, God often speaks through His children
He doen't need us. He does like to include us in what He's doing.
oh and He's the one that does the defining, balancing half a billion gallaxies, and over 10 trillion cells that make up the human body
but I am on scratching the surface

I find serial killers taking lives more audacious and immediate than the pontifications of religious zealots, but of course that is a personal opinion.

It's like when I was hurt in a match, and Kevin Nash was speaking for me on Monday Nitro. That just wasn't cool brother. Only the Hulkster can speak for all the little Hulkamaniacs, brother.
