A Perfect Being Can Exist

1. The Orbit of the PlanetsThis was specific to the Catholic Church, first of all. And second of all, how does this in any way truly show that the creation is not perfect? It doesn't. So what? So the orbit is elliptical. This is explained by science as to why it does this. And it is just another perfect part of the perfect creation. Con has to show me how this is actually imperfect, and how scientifically and logically it would make more sense to have a circular orbit, all the while taking into account the consequences should it be circular. Why is the orbit elliptical? I call that another perfect part.2. The Earth's ShapeThe reply to this is the same as above. Science perfectly explains as to why this happened. Con seems to think that everything must be a perfect circle in order to be perfect. Why so? When you actually look into the science of why the Earth is the way it is, you will see perfection and beauty in its creation.Interestingly enough, the Qur'an actually speaks of this. http://www.answering-christianity.com...3. The Problem of EvilAgain, there is no problem of evil. Epicurus didn't take into account what would happen if you remove all evil from the universe. Lets think about it for a second. If you remove all evil from the universe, you remove all free will. I'm sure both Con and I have committed some "sin" or "evil" in our past that we aren't proud of. If God were to have taken away the ability for us to do that, God also would have taken away our free will, because we do not have free will if we can't choose to steal. So take away evil, and you take away free will, and you make it impossible for one to steal. Take away evil, and thereby free will, and you make it impossible to have war, to murder. Take away evil, and thereby free will, and you take away our authentic creation. Not to mention that you also completely distort the intention of creation, which is to test mankind, so God may as well have just made angels with no free will and nothing else.If you take away the possibility of "evil," you completely distort the universe, because much of the "evil" today are things like natural phenomena, like volcanoes and hurricanes, earthquakes, as these all kill people and ruin lives as well. And to remove such natural phenomena would mean to distort the universe, the Earth in specific, and what makes it the Earth. Also, by taking away the possibility of evil, you completely distort our society, you make it unrealistic, as there are many scientific and psychological explanations as to why one does evil, the main one bing free will, the ability to choose a path.Would Con prefer us all to be robots?Therefore I conclude with this argument: If God exists, then he is naturally omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent. If God created the universe with the potential for free will, and with the intention to test mankind, sentient beings, and a universe that is perfectly logical with both free will and the intention, then there is no unjustified evil. There is no such thing as unjustified evil, as mankind has free will and was created with the intention of testing them. Therefore the creation is perfect, with perfect parts, and is logically consistent with a perfect being. 4. The Perfect Creation SummarizedCon seems to mention evolution an awful lot. In fact, that is the explanation to just about all of it. Evolution is actually one of the most perfect parts of our perfect creation. I challenge Con to think of something more beautiful and complex than creation by evolution. Sure, God could have just poofed everything into thin air, but God is logical, and so is creation, and He is also an artist, so something so crude wouldn't befit Him, now would it? Con goes on to name off all of these things that are imperfect, but what he doesn't realize is that he is calling evolution itself imperfect. So here is the challenge that he must meet:Con has to think up of a way that is logically consistent, and as beautiful and complex as evolution as a means of creation of life. But keep in mind, he has to also explain through science how this is logically possible as well.Everything that he mentioned as imperfect, is perfect. Take the possibility of such a part coming to be, and you take away the possibilities of so much more in our creation. Completely distorting it.5. ConclusionCon hasn't really given any actual rebuttal in my eyes. Everything seems to be a perfect part of a perfect creation intertwined with the intention of testing mankind and the possibility of free will. And evolution is just an amazing process of creating life that God implemented into our creation.
