Is God competent or incompetent?

[ding]

I didn't say the Bible was allegory. There are several literary styles in the Bible. Allegory is one. They are allegorical events of actual events. The first eleven chapters are the history that is common to the world.

The first chapter is history? You mean the story of Noah in chapter one? And some invisible dude taking 6 days to make everything?
So what's allegorical and what's not and who gets to decide? Science? When something is disproven to be possible it becomes allegorical? Like the resurrection?

No. Allegorical accounts of a shared history of everyone.

We don't need to do things like that. We leave that for you.

So Jesus is allegorical?

The person? No. Historical.

So how do you decide, and who decides what is allegorical and what isn't?

Common sense.

Is God competent or incompetent?


We are told in scriptures that evil begets evil and good begets good. God, as our creator, according to scriptures, creates us all as sinners, which many see as evil.


God can thus be seen and judged as being the original sinner since the fruits of his labor (us) went bad or are born bad. A tree is known by its fruits. What else could come from a sinner tree but sin?


I give God a fail on competence for the following reasons.

God created heaven that produced Satan. Fail.

God created Eden which produced Original Sin. Fail.

God had to reboot creation with Noah’s flood. Fail.

God sent his son to forgive mankind instead of stepping up himself. Fail, for moral reasons.

God also had to create hell for his rejects which scriptures say will be the vast majority of us. Fail.


Jesus said we would know his people by their works and deeds and if we believe that, then the Christian God would obviously be rejected by Jesus and agree with my fail judgement.


Do you agree?
