"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing?Then he is malevolent.Is he both able and willing?Then whence cometh evil?Is he neither able nor willing?Then why call him God?"[Epicurus]"If God is omniscient, he must already know how he is going to intervene to change the course of history using his omnipotence.But that means he can't change his mind about his intervention which means he is not omnipotent"[Richard Dawkins]If He knew it allIf He knew everything there is to be knownThen that would mean that He would always know what to do next to change the course of historyHe could choose to suspend the laws of natureHe would always know the past and the futureBut this would make his own knowledge untrueFor if He knew everythingHe could not do anything different from what he knowsAnd even if he could hear our prayersHe could not encroachThere's noone here who knows it allThere's nothing there beyond the world we knowThere's noone here who knows it allIs there something there beyond the world we know?Christian morality has all the characters of a reaction; it is, in great part, a protest against Paganism.Its ideal is negative rather than positive; passive rather than action; innocence rather than Nobleness;Abstinence from Evil, rather than energetic Pursuit of Good: in its precepts (as has been well said) "thou shalt not" predominates unduly over "thou shalt."[John Stuart Mill]
