That is not my opinion, that is logic.

Here is proof: Me and you see love differently, based on our own personal expiriences, thus making love ambiguous.

I agree that we disagree, but I further disagree that "is logic". if that is the case, then any word or etymological reference is ambiguous.

I would otherwise say, that it isn't ambiguous to me, and isn't to you, but we have differing opinions as to definition. But I can't say that because you already said that you believe the idea of love is ambiguous; unless I am misunderstanding what you are saying.

Supposedly he gave us free will so our characters would develop in a way unlike any other. I fail to see why god couldn't create us programmed with character, but, you know...we don't always have all of the answers.

[TPB_Bubbles]

Your first pitfall is that you assume that we have "freewill." Says who? If God could create us, this world, and the universe, isn't it quite possible that he creates our lives, choices, and fate? Who says we choose anything...?

It would not be love, if he created us as some of the angels that were created to love Him. we choose to love Him (or not).

Biblical definitions of "perfect" can mean sinless, or even of a pure genealogy. in any case, perfect does not mean contradictory to freewill to choose. so I agree to disagree with your conclusion.

[907ak (Banned)]

the biblical definition is wrong.

if we were created PERFECT, then we would NOT sin.

shut up, you cant say that the biblical definition is wrong. In the bible, perfect means sinless, which we all were born.

Didn't God know that giving us freewill was a mistake? If God did, then why didn't "he" just create us perfect in the first place?

I know these questions have no answers, but lets see what is your logic.

Like, if you draw a picture of God in paint, then you save it in .gif, it's still a picture of God, but it's distorted and not as good. Saving it in .gif is like making a human.


I'm not a Christian, but I guess thats my logic. I'm on the computer too much during the winter.

The question is, why didn't god save us in .jpeg, and why does he punish us for accidentally saving us in a .gif?

[noob101]

Im pretty sure the Bible says that God created humans in his own image, and since he has freewill, so do we.

Sure, why not. Someone's gotta do it...

[Truthiness]

Because God doesn't exist. That's my personal belief, anyway.
