The Christian God Does Not Exist

"If god is omniscient then he has forknowledge that I will get hit by a car. If he knows I will get hit by the car, then I must get hit by the car. If he can save me from getting hit by the car, then it is not the case he 100% knew I would get hit by the car." "In order for him to save me from getting hit by the car, there most be a possibility for me to not get hit by the car. However if he knows I'm going to be hit by a car, then there is no possibility for me to not get hit by the car." Reason for me bringing that up is to illustrate the mechanism behind it, but ok lets go with that analogy. It's not a matter of if he can save you, we know he can, but the point is whether or not he chooses to. By default, if you are meant to get hit by a car, God will automatically allow you to get hit without intervening directly. Once God "decides" you will get hit, there is no possible way for you to escape. "P1) An omnibenevolent god must act in a way that achieves the "fullest good" P2) An omnipotent god can act in a way that does not achieve the "fullest good" C) Omnibenevolence and omnipotence are incompatabile If he can act in a way that is contrary to the fullest good, then he is not omnibenevolent, if he can not, then he is not omnipotent." As i stated earlier, omnibenevolence, omniscience, and omnipotence co-exist. You can only do and think what is "benevolent", but not omnibenevolent. In Job 1, God allows evil to occur to Job, but points out his morally upright character. At the end, Job maintains his integrity in the face of calamity (Job 42). Eventually in verse 12, God gives him more blessings than before. A benevolent being would probably prevent you from experiencing evil for good, but an omnibenevolent would help you overcome evil for the "fullest good." "P1) If your future actions can be known with 100% accuracy, then you don't have free will. P2) An omnipotent god can have free will. P3) An omniscient god knows all his future actions with 100% accuracy. C) An omnipotent and omniscient god is a contradiction" Like i said earlier, if God refuses to intervene in saving you from a car crash, knowing that you will, you still have free-will because you choose to walk across the street. I can give examples of where God is omniscient, but also omnipotent. Gen. 2:15-17 "15 Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, """Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." God gave man the free-will to either obey or disobey his commandment. The choice was left to man. He created the woman and the serpent tempted her. Notice that God is not present (not intervening with man's moral choice), but shows up until v. 8-9 "8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?" v. 11 demonstrates his omniscience "11 And He said,Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?" Now to an extent, it may seem as if you have no free-will, however God can easily change the circumstances so that you have the ability to choose your path. John 3:16-21 18 "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God." As you can see, God does give you the power to make a sound decision, thus you have free-will. "p1)An omnipotent god can perform all acts p2)An omnipotent god can't deny himself(which is an act) c1)True Omnipotence does not exist c2)Beings defined as omnipotent don't exist. " I've pointed out how this paradox doesn't work. In round 1, i stated: "you have created an argument which is essentially logically impossible. 1. if he can do anything, but has the ability to do something he can't do, he cannot do anything 2 . if he can do anything, but he can't do something he can't do,there something he can't do" When concerning the Christian God, i think you misunderstand the concept of his omnipotence. 2 Tim. 2:13 "If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny who he is." Matt. 19:23-26 "23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." 25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, "Who then can be saved?" 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." As we can see, God can only do all things in the sense of acting upon the universe, but not acting in contrary to himself. In conclusion: my opponent failed to fulfill his burden of proof that the Christian God does not exist. He did not explain how using some of these arguments disproves his existence.
