Think about the following:

In the medieval ages, people were popping out 5-15 children on average. Child mortality was extremely high, with roughly 80% of children dying before they were 5 y/o.

Now, what should god do (if they existed)? Let the children life and cause overpopulation, which leads to famine and disaster, or kill a lot of children? There's literally no solution.

That was until contraceptives were found. And interestingly, contraceptives exist at roughly the same time that antibiotics exist, thus preventing both high child-mortality and overpopulation.

According to Isiah 45:7 it’s C.

“I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things”

Their logic would be

C

If something bad happens to someone it’s because they deserved it

“But they were a good person”

They were going to do something terrible

“I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things“

hear me out.

what if it's actually B and C?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 21 hours ago

C sort of implies B or A. If he causes them then he doesn’t prevent them because either he can’t or he doesn’t want to. It would be kind of weird if he caused a terrible thing and then prevented it before it happened.

Then it is not worthy of worship.

The god the Abrahamists have chosen to worship is a weather and war god. So he is a vengeful dick.

When the Israelites were still polytheistic they worshipped, besides this war god, a sun god and a god of fertility in the Pantheon. Yet they’ve chosen to solely worship the war god. Says a lot about them.

It's not that deep:
1- In the case of natural evils: C. God causes them, but they are morally neutral from the spiritual perspective. If what matters is salvation and glory to God it doesn't change anything if you died by tornado or by anything else, and inevitable death might even be a net positive individually and to others (Ind: the person might repent about something, social: seeing the frailness of life leads to less self love, while increasing compassion)
2- In the case of human caused evils: B with an asterisk. Given that He has imposed upon Himself the restriction of respecting free will, He won't stop people from doing evil deeds, even though He wants them to do good and He can make them do it. Why God chooses to do it like this is a mistery and doesn't really matter, but it seems to be because He wants people to freely choose to worship Him.

E. You deserved it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 22 hours ago

He caused it/allowed it to happen because he wants to test YOUR faith and make sure you're cool with needless pain and suffering so long as it means you get to go to heaven/avoid an eternity of torture.

Pretty sure every pope is a multimillionaire (or at least lives exactly like one) without having to answer this question 🫤
