Lucifer is not evil like god says.

So majority of my opponent"s case is him misunderstanding or neglecting my argument, and therefore going on with what I refuted. The resolution states if Lucifer is described as how God describes Satan to be. My opponent confuses this with what common people think Satan as. So pro brings up all these quotes about whole Satan is beautiful, but neglects the fact that they came from the bible. And we know that the bible is the word of God and it is inspired by God, thus everything in the bible about Satan, is how God described it. Thus all of his verses provided are useless. Pro also misunderstands when I say evil is due to Lucifer. Yes God did create everything, but the thing is that evil is a thing that exists because it"s essential for there to be good. If evil didn"t exist then good wouldn"t exist because then everything would just be normal. I hope this was sufficient but if not then I"ll go into depths in my next turn. But since now that"s established, the evils on earth are due to Lucifer because God isn"t actively creating these evils, Lucifer is. Evil does exist because of God, but the specific acts being done aren"t by God. Therefore the evil acts are due to Lucifer and in the end are way more numerous. , Lastly, aside from the poor rhetoric, pro states many things he deems as bad on God"s side and on Lucifer"s side. Well first I ask my opponent how he knows that billions died in the flood. Then he says that Lucifer did nothing like that, but yet I have shown why Lucifer has done much more harm. I have also shown how rebelling was not the only wrong thing Lucifer did and my opponent has conceded that as well, and no I wouldn"t have rebelled. Who in their right mind would disobey and all powerful entity? God does not needlessly murder, in the bible which tells us all this stuff, and which is valid since we are assuming god exists, God is described as just. Therefore his acts were just. And my opponent claims to be able to read God"s mind and say that he knows God"s purpose was to create for his own ego. But if he was all powerful then couldn"t he have done it without creating humans? It would be also ridiculous for me to try to respond to every single quote taken from this website which he copied and pasted. https://www.quora.com.... As for slavery Pro is disregarding context in which the bible is written and what it is referring to. As we know the gospels are truly the heart of the bible everything Jesus teaches in there does not condone abuse of another by taking advantage. Looking outside the gospel one may find a verse that points otherwise and seemingly contradicts the bible but recall the bible doesn't explicitly condone slavery as ok it just tells slaves how to defer to their masters or may have instances in which one of God's chosen people had a slave. For the first part the bible centers on people being a humble and servile for the glory of God. To always be rebellious isn't always Godlike because God does place redemptive value in suffering. So a slave that is obedient would be pleasing to God not because God wants him to be a slave but moreover because God wants him to show that he is willing to embrace suffering and be humble and servile as a way to glorify God. On the second part slaves in that contact might not have been like the slaves we think of today in human trafficking or transatlantic slave trade. Some slaves were even treated as family members and groomed to sometimes even we'd the daughter and continue their lineage. Even though they are engaged in forced servitude there life isn't necessarily wrought with the suffering we tend to conflate slavery with. Some of them are just children that don't have homes and need a domestic occupation. I would gladly refute his quotes but he has to explain how they are unjust.
