      I understand the epicurean paradox but I also understand for god to exist as some believe it would have to be paradoxical. I also understand that any true religion, anything not just societally and culturally forced, would not take hold as a probability based on geographical location of birth. I believe in a god that can give humans divine inspiration but I do not believe in a religion that is just a long tradition of group think. Any god that choses to create these structures of religion and call them right and just is of no interest to me.

      I like that guy jesus, tho. He was a bro.

    God is also supposedly an all-knowing being, while at the same time excuses his shitty decisions and faulty creations with not being responsible for men’s actions and decisions, and also free will is a thing.

    Pick a lane. Either god is all-knowing and knows what every single human being who ever lived/lives/will live did/will do in their lifetimes and free will is an illusion, or he’s not an all-knowing being.

    Or… hear me out on this… He’s not real! Crazy, I know.

      If God created everything, who created God? And who created the thing that created God?

      Or, if God just sprang into existence, then the universe could have sprung into existence and saved a complicated and useless step.
