Does Good Come From God?

[cindylou]

Christians speak like that all the time.

Don't worry, I already ignore them.

Lol good

I don't get it? You're arguing good and evil can't exist without gods? How so?

I already gave my position. How do you discern good from evil? was my question, so how do you? Where does good and evil come from? Everyone has their own take on this subject. Scientists believe
"the big bank theory," a huge explosion occurred in space, and we were formed from atoms and evolved from stage to stage into human form. However, why do humans have emotions and inanimated objects do not? My point is, there had to be a primordial-mystical influence wrought in humans that seperates them from the rest of the evolution process.

Really. Logically and without moral absolutes...it can't.

That's not logical. Humans are rational enough to come up with guidelines to follow without the presence of religion. Murder, theft, etc..those are all things that have negative effects on organized civilizations, so we couldcome to the conclusion that those things are wrong or right without the help of any type of god.

We're capable of creating moral absolutes without religion. Athiests know right from wrong or good from evil without believing in god or an evil counterpart, no?

I'm not saying that people can't tell right from wrong...I never said that.

Religion and god don't equal the same thing so you gotta quit lumping them together.

When an innocent child dies, what does everyone say? Satan took your baby? No, they say "God needed an angel".

When someone find out they or their loved ones have cancer or some incurable disease do they say Satan is attacking me? No they say "God is testing me".

When someone goes through serious physical, mental or emotional trauma and their lives are never the same do they say Satan fucked me over? No they say "God works in mysterious ways".

Has Satan ever killed all his children?

Bro, come on....you just spoke for the whole world! This is typical Christian dogma you're speaking.... You're beating youself at your own game. Did God kill all his children? Anyway, you failed to answer my question, what is the definition of evil? Your take on evil might not be what others believe.
What you think is evil someone else might think is good. It is all idealism.
