Causing the people who built the tower of babble to stop being able to understand each other's language. Sending plagues. Causing wars and deciding who wins that war. Influencing who will be made king or not. Etc. etc. etc. And if what if somebody dies an untimely death. To give that death some meaning, a priest is likely to tell those who are grieving that it was god's will.
    dude......are you simply going to ignore all the examples in the Bible of people NOT doing God's will?.......like maybe Adam and Eve being disobedient?........or Cain killing Abel......and that's before we get to chapter 5........

    What I wrote wasn't a belief. It was a fact. I even gave an example of that fact that I had experienced first hand. The guy was a piece of shit. He used god as an excuse for being a piece of shit. Also, there are probably many members of the Mafia who are true believers. But somehow they still manage to justify doing what they do. Now if you don't agree with what I said, say why. We can hash it out. When you come out on the losing end, it's time to change your "beliefs." To set aside your herd mentality. To start thinking for yourself instead of letting others do it for you.

    When I was speaking of "people," I was referring to most people. I am not one of them. I have free will.

    And when people didn't do what god wanted in the bible, did not god punish them? Also, it must ultimately be gods will that people screw up from time to time. Otherwise, he would have made them more intelligent. Also, what if instead of talking to moses as a burning bush far away from everybody else, he went right down to the multitude as a huge giant for everybody to see and say it directly to them what he supposedly said to moses. He could have also picked up a couple of sinners in his hands and crushed them in his hands in front of them. And tell them that he will cause sinners and those who don't do as he said from then on to die horribly. Don't you think that would have caused much less sinning? If anything, I think god likes sinners.

    so your argument that people have no free will is that people did what God did not want them to do?......

    I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and, to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” I suppose we all thought that, one way or another. robert oppenheimer

    Anything that can clearly be demonstrated isn't a belief. It's a fact.

    You can call it what you will. Either there is stupidity and lies in the old testament or there isn't. Either there is evil in the old testament or there isn't. Either there stupidity and lies in the new testament or there isn't. Either there is evil in the new testament or there isn't. There is nothing more in that regard to figure out. Also, according to scientologists, scientology is a religion. They even got tax exempt status as a religion.
