If I had to modify something non-trivial on that website, I think I would have to get drunk first. It\u2019s a mess. No separation of concerns, no layers of abstraction, sensitive configs in PHP files, templates mixed up the the business logic \u2013 not only is it objectively \u003Cem\u003Eugly\u003C\/em\u003E and \u003Cem\u003Eunreadable\u003C\/em\u003E, but most importantly, it takes a lot of time to understand what the code does, how it does it and how to change it best.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThere is also a lot of \u003Cstrong\u003Eduplication\u003C\/strong\u003E. I wrote some code to handle a post form in the admin panel. Then copy-pasted it and adjusted to handle an image form. Then the same for a comment form. And some others. Now if I had to change something regarding the form handling generally, I\u2019d have to do it in all of those places (knowing the whole application, and trying not to forget\/miss any of them). If only I had that shared logic separated into any kind of abstraction, I would only have to update that abstraction, so that every form which uses it would just switch to the new version.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThat code would also cause me trouble regarding \u003Cstrong\u003Ecooperation\u003C\/strong\u003E.

Possibly also spaceless and timeless?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAny god that has those attributes cannot possibly exist.

Yet. How can he be sure there\u2019s nothing outside of his knowledge? To paraphrase our imaginary theist apologist: you cannot prove that there\u2019s nothing he doesn\u2019t know he doesn\u2019t know, can you?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMercy is, by definition, suspension of justice.\u003C\/strong\u003E You can either judge someone as they should be judged to even the offence they caused, or you can show mercy towards them and alleviate their punishment. Not both at once. (Unless you\u2019re a married bachelor, maybe).\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAlso, infinite justice would require you to know and understand all the suffering and all the \u003Cstrong\u003Etemptations\u003C\/strong\u003E that your accused was subjected to. Of course, god does know that, right? He\u2019s omniscient, in the end. But can you really understand such issues, unless you have experienced them yourself? Would you feel judged fairly, if your judge has never been tempted, has no needs, has no limits, no problems, no weakness?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E(If we focus on one particular religion, you could argue that god does indeed know all the struggles of being a human, since he came here as his own son and in a human form begged himself for forgiveness.... You know, two thousand years ago, while the human race exists since at least a hundred thousand. Ooooh, the timeline of god\u2019s plan is a topic for a separate discussion... Long story short: it\u2019s just another lame theological excuse.)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBeing infinitely good, while having created a \u003Cstrong\u003Euniverse where evil exists\u003C\/strong\u003E, is also contradictory.

And also that in order to have free will, we have to be allowed to do wicked things. (God, however, already knows what we\u2019re gonna do, before we do it... So are we free or predestined?
