God is NOT Pro-Life

(1) Any act that God commits, causes, commands, or condones is morally permissible. TRUE (2) The Bible reveals to us many of the acts that God commits, causes, commands, and condones. TRUE (3) It is morally impermissible for anyone to commit, cause, command, or condone, acts that violate our moral principles. TRUE (4) The Bible tells us that God does in fact commit, cause, command, or condone, acts that violate our moral principles. TRUE Above we have a set of statements that have not been dealt with by the CON. I stand that all the statements are true, yet the CON will refuse #4 based on his previous thoughts, however I implore those reading this debate, that it is not possible for #4 to be false. It strikes me funny that our morals today have gone beyond the very atrocities that God was involved with in the Bible. The CON conceded that God kills and or allows the killing of unborn children of women for the purpose of punishment. This of course is a very small portion of the MASS killing that went on throughout scripture. I ask the CON if he would be alright with God acting out today in the same manner as He did in the past? If CON is okay with the God of the Holy Bible doing all that He did through out Biblical history, then he certainly must be okay with God doing it today. If God is not bound to His own laws, certainly Christians should be okay with the actions of God and those who He commanded to carry out these "MORAL" acts. These acts must be MORAL if God commanded it, right? Dare we say that either God is immoral or those following His killing orders are immoral. The Christian cannot and will not and does not say this, even though if it were to happen today the world would be appalled based on our higher standard of morals. When God commands humans to mass kill other humans in the Bible to gain land, this puts other humans above the very laws that God commanded. HYPOCRISY! You cannot justify God's actions of immorality by pointing to other scriptures to quantify it, because we know better. Even Christianity is divided about morality, Christians cannot even agree on what morality is in accordance to God. According to the Center for the Study of Global Christianity (CSGC) at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, there are approximately 41,000 Christian denominations and organizations in the world. This statistic takes into consideration cultural distinctions of denominations in different countries, so there is overlapping of many denominations. http://christianity.about.com... 41,000 Denominations! I think God could have done a better job of making His requirements more clear. CON: Our death is inevitable because of sin, whether we die in the womb, in war, on the street, or in a nursing home. This brief period of life that many of us have been graciously given is a chance to repent. The correct judgement on us all is death, and God allowed Jesus to take the judgement for us. If we don't repent, we will not be forgiven, and God will seperate us from Himself since he does not tolerate continued evil in his prescence. You call misery in life God's hypocricy, when what you are actually seeing is God's mercy in not immediately sending our entire species to Hell. Because you are right that a good God wouldn't tolerate evil. I would not complain about second chances. Your sermon at the end of your post does nothing for your defense of God. Sin entered the world because of God creating Adam and Eve to have the propensity to sin, places temptation in front of them, and then tells them to stay away from a tree and the fruit that He put there that would give them knowledge. Then God allows Satan (God's Bulldog), to tempt them, all so that God could curse mankind. I imagine that an all powerful, all loving, all knowing God should have foreseen this from the start and done a better job. It is funny that somehow the very sinning that took place in the garden has condemned the entirety of mankind forever unless they bow to Jesus Christ. All this work God did to have a world full of people, his supposed children, that He will condemn to hell if they do not believe His book, which I mind you that is full of horrific and terrible stories about His true nature, not the nature that people make up to fit there lives, but the nature that we see of Him killing so many people. Killing more people than Satan, by the biblical count. God is not PRO-LIFE, if He was then He would have done things different from the beginning. Again I hope the CON will deal with statements posted twice now that prove that logically the God of the Holy Bible is not moral. Thank you for this most engaging debate. I appropriate your time and effort.
