There is no God -- so you know atheists never blame god for anything.

[campbell]

imassume (technical term) you know about theodicy

just look it up in wikipedia if you don't. the concept is far from new, obviously

theodicy has been invoked for natural disasters, but when it's people being shitty to other people, one doesn't need to involve god. we do it to ourselves. ta da.

Church suffered a setback -- someone may ask "where's that omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent God that church lied about all the time?"

You're just upset that you didn't start this thread.

Yeah, because this is the first time anything bad has ever happened. Those church people will never know how to deal with it...

lame thread is lame

tens of millions of people die each year

[Baby, ByeBye]

that doesn't answer the OP though

[FoxNews]

FoxNews received word from God that he was out trying to see if anyone was willing to spend an evening or weekend with Baby, ByeBye, whether platonically or romantically, but to no avail

[TheGillotine]

This is actually pretty easy to defend from a theistic perspective and is consistent with most every Christian denomination.

The atheists gave up on this one sooner than I expected them to. There are still several things that are said in every religion thread that haven't been said in this one yet.

I think they're saying it over in the What's Heaven Like thread.
