Yes, God made everything in her/his domain. Evil too. A balance to good and a lesson to the dummies that see there is a choice between good and evil.
I own a bible and have read it cover to cover a dozen times and have certainly read all of Genesis,it is a story,a fairy tale.Not reality .I grew up indoctrinated with "faith".So I will pose this question,Do you believe that humankind has no morals without God?If so then would you explain it.Because of the human species need to survive as a lifeform,there is and has been an actual inherent morality of behavior to that survival before religion and the idea of God ever saw the light of day.Paternal/Maternal instincts, the need to protect the young and to guide them in life is a part of the survival behavior this is what we were,but this age is different and not to sound bleak it will have its fall sooner or later because of the abandonment from the simplicity of nature and survival instinct.It is clear that you do think that morality strictly comes from God.....it simply dose not,otherwise our species would have seen its last day years ago.Stealing and killing never brought peace to anyone at anytime Rebel u know that im sure.Catholic religion has many flaws....do some historical research,and look at how lavish the Vatican sits with its opulance,anything but a symbol of humility and meek measure of the faith that is handed over at sacrement,while so many starve and die from disease amongst a plethura of other problems,that great mass of wealth that is under the popes control,maybe a fraction of it actualy goes to help if it is a Good day for them to do so,but certainly not at there inconvenience.Sanctomony of objects is another flaw i find disturbing,putting so much faith in the relics of Saints as though they were blessed by Christ himself through the power of the holy spirit.,,,,,,Sigh sadly enough Rebel there are flaws in every religion because it is man who has created religion and wrote its doctrines to control masses....not God,but i do not expect my dialogue to sway your faith,it takes more than the words of atheists to do just that,youll have to question to find this truth for yourself.
Where on earth did you come up with those stats? Oh, someone told you...
Well, let's start with your own quote "90%+ of scholars that try to disprove the bible in their Career turn christian." Where on earth did you get that from?
How so? What exactly is not specific about one of the most common theological problems in all of philosophy? I just googled "problem of evil" and got almost 13 million hits with the first page full of the very specific logical problem that this is named for, with the wikipedia being the first link that summarizes the issue and the many attempts by theologians throughout history to come up with an answer. It almost appears as if you have never heard of it. If that's the case, then I propose that you haven't really thought much about your beliefs to begin with.
This is the most ridiculous and blatantly untrue claim I have seen here in some time.
Do you honestly think that these things would occur without a bible or god? Do you know how to think for yourself? Have you ever questioned your religious teachers or do you just accept what they tell you?
First of all, who are you replying to and second what on earth are you trying to say?
It all depends on what you mean by "disprove".
...same God and same laws, no? Isis, Osiris, et al...
Okay, I tried to rep you on that quote, but it is obvious I can't do that. Something about having to rep someone else.
