Tony c: God and the devils "kill counts"?

Question

Some people argue that in the bible God has killed more people than the devil.

Considering that in the first 5 chapters of the bible, anyone can see that the devil is the one who caused all the human deaths in the bible, wouldn't you agree that people who think this are shallow?

Example:

A tree outside gives aids to people who eat from it. I tell a kid not to eat from the tree, or he will die from aids for lacking common sense. A stranger tells him the fruit is great, and the kid eats from it. He then has billions of children, and all of his children begin to die because of aids.

Is it my fault the kid is stupid? Or is it the stranger who tricked him that should be blamed for the kid eating from the tree?

So assume that God killed 10 million people (who probably deserved it anyway), satan has killed millions more.

Dreamstuff Entity was talking about the kill counts in the question "Do you want to go to hell?", incase you were wondering why I was asking.

God didn't think humans would be so moronic as to eat from a deadly tree, just like I am sure most people aren't stupid enough to kill themselves with a kitchen knife, just because THEY PUT IT THERE!

meissen it was your pride falling from the sky for such a dumb response, that doesnt really answer my question. You see an acceptable answer could have been: "yes" or maybe a "yeah" or even a "yup".

Dreamstuff Entity its a miracle you had the courage to respond.

Anyways, my God didn't "create" the devil, he "created" an angel. An angel that to turned bad due to his own motives, and there is no reason for God to have forseen that.

Just like strong people don't lift everything they see, God doesn't have to forsee everything, unless he wants to.

Funny how some people argue that God that is omnipowerfull and all-knowing must have known that the devil was going to rebel, but if he is omnipowerful he can obviously control how much he wants to know, or it would be violating its own definition. Its kindoff like a messed up paradox.

Please all respondants, when you talk about "my God", don't speak with assertiveness, because 99% of the time, you don't really know who "my God" is, or what he can do.

Answer 1

Exactly. Here, have a star from me. :)

Answer 2

So kids who make fun of a bald guy deserve to die?

Satan killed exactly ten people in the bible - Job's children.

compared that with over 2 million killed by your god:

anyway, your god created your devil, knowing exactly everything he would do and still creating him this way, right? so any blame is your god's alone.

Answer 3

The Bibles says that God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, they are his creation, he loves us all, the devil as a roaring lion roameth about seeking whom he may devour. The devil was a liar and muderer from the begining and the father of it. You are right. no contest!!!

Answer 4

Did God start WW!, WW!!, and most of all, Iraq? I don't think he did. Man was given free will. In all these cases, he chose the path the Devil gave him. And this in not to mention the Napoleonic Wars, and certain other wars of antiquity, which were also begun by free will, and Satan.

Answer 5

Didn't god put that tree there? WHAT WAS THAT CRASH???? Oh, that was your argument falling from the sky.

Edit: Apparently you don't understand that your go put the tree there and is therefore responsible for what that tree does.

Answer 6

samuelcrow777 is right. man is given a choice, and he chose the wrong thing.
