If the devil punishes bad people, doesn't that mean the devil is a good person?

[MAYOR QUIMBY]

Can we please have a thread dedicated to religious paradoxes? I need to be prepared next time Jehova's Witness knock on my door.

Here are more:

1.) Could God create a stone so heavy that even he could not lift it? Any way you answer the question, you will realize that God is not all-powerful.

2.) If God truly is all-good and all-powerful, then why does evil exist? Since evil exists, an all-powerful and all-good God cannot exist.

3.) Supposedly, God gave humans free will. Humans can choose whether or not to believe in God. But if humans choose not to believe in God they go to hell. So if you think about it, human's don't have free will. Humans have no other choice but to believe in God or else they will burn in eternal hellfire.

God said thou shalt not kill. So why did he destroy every living thing on the earth with a flood? And why did he destroy Sodom and Gomorrah? And why did he give Samson strength to kill an entire army like rambo with the jawbone of an ass? Why did he also sanction Samson killing the Pharisees at the temple of Gaza? Speaking of Killing, didn't Saul kill thousands? Didn't David kill Goliath? Why is killing ok.. yet not?

I was referring to King Saul, not the Saul who later became the apostle Paul.

Saul of Tarsus wasn't a Christian when he did that. He later converted and followed another path. The story showed that God forgave him and that he still uses people for his plan regardless of what they have previously done.

What my questions revolve around are people who killed while serving God.

well im going to convert on my deathbed then

He could, but why would he want to, he'd be fucking himself over.

God puts the evil there so that people can witness the evil and learn not to do it by reminding them of the line you don't cross.

Bullshit. If I say if you're going to grow a titty in the middle of your chest if you don't buy a Lil Romeo album, does that make it true? Of course you may already have one, in which case that shits spooky. Maybe he is up there after all.

What did Carlin say "5,000 years ago some religious and political hustlers got together and came up with this shit to control people", which sounds about right.

Heaven and hell exist within, heaven is what you make it and hell is what you going through.
