Did God create sin?
Sikoticâ„¢:
I've been arguing this with my family for the past 3 hours.
Since, according to the Bible or whatever religious text you subscribe to, God is the creator of ALL things. Does that mean he created sin/evil? But I thought he was a God of love?
I'm saying that this is a contradiction in the concept of God. My family take the ignorant route and say that I can't understand what they understand because they have faith and I don't yadda yadda yadda.
So discuss.
I TO DA GEEZY:
Each one of the monotheist religions, as well as many other religions, rely in one way or another upon the premise that the nature of the soul, which is the true essence of every being, is divine. Nothing new so far. The reason for the creation of all things, on behalf of god of course, is more or less equal to masturbation because god's ultimate objective is to elevate the creation to his level, from where he himself basically reduced it to begin with. YES- He purposely created the physical, which is ways more inferior than the spiritual, for it to ascend back to the top. Sin is a derivative of the physical because the physical is the complete opposite to god's spiritual nature (Despite God being the one to create it). He created man, a tiny piece of god or a soul possesser, in order to be the active force in the creation hence to make the choice between sin and elevation.
I TO DA GEEZY:
p.s The reason the creation is almost equal to masturbation is because the only way for God to get his kicks is through altruism, due to his spiritual nature, and since there was no one aside from him, there was no one to grant things to.
