Religion is a belief system, an ideology, an opinion.\nIt\u0027s a subject of debate and criticism.\nTelling a gay person \u201chere are ten reasons why you should stop being gay\u201d would be as pointless\nas explaining to a black person why they should stop being black.\nHowever, persuading people to change their \u003Cem\u003Eopinions\u003C\/em\u003E, including religion, is a perfectly normal thing to do.\nReligious people do it all the time, trying to convert others to their faith!\nYes, it\u0027s possible to discriminate against someone based on their religion,\nand there have been plenty of religious wars and people suffering just because of what they believe in \u2013\nbut me saying \u201cI don\u0027t respect your beliefs, I actually consider them harmful\u201d is nowhere near any of that.\nMe simply saying \u201cI\u0027m not religious, and I believe the society would be better off if nobody was\u201d,\nand explaining why I believe so, is not discrimination.\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYes, I do recognise the value of religion in the past, its influence on art, philosophy and even science.\u003C\/strong\u003E\nSure, I\u0027d argue that all of them would probably be perfectly fine, if not better, without the patronage of churches,\nsince the human need to express ourselves and to understand the world around us is universal,\nbut I have to set aside the what-ifs and admit that in the universe we \u003Cem\u003Edo\u003C\/em\u003E live in, the reality has been shaped by religion on a large scale.\nNot just that, I\u0027ll admit that in the past believing in a higher power was actually\u2026 a pretty reasonable thing to do \u2013\nin the absence of better explanations of the world, I\u0027d probably be religious too.\nBut that\u0027s the past. We now live in the world soooo massively different from how it looked like millenia, centuries or even decades ago.\nClinging to outdated belief systems that aren\u0027t compatible with our modern understanding of the universe \u2013\njust because it used to have value in the past \u2013 just doesn\u0027t sound like a good idea to me.\nWe can appreciate the past without still living in it.\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYes, I do mean all religions.\u003C\/strong\u003E\nMy personal experience might have been euro- and catholicism-centric,\nbut it\u0027s not like I know nothing about other mythologies; I spent a lot of time in my teens getting acquainted with alternatives,\nfrom different branches of protestantism, to islam, buddhism, taoism or pantheism;\nI was clinging to the religious way of seeing the world while trying to escape the homophobia and dogmatism of catholicism.\nSure, religions are diverse. Some are more queerphobic, others less. Some are more internally consistent, others less.\nSome are more compatible with the scientific facts, others less. Some are more harmful and entitled, others less.\nBut in the big picture they\u0027re all saying the same thing:\n\u201cI claim to know how the world works based on something that ultimately can\u0027t be traced to anything other than some person making it up,\nI can\u0027t provide any convincing proof or evidence for my claims, but you must believe what I\u0027m saying and give me money, or be punished\u201d.\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMany people have tried to convince me over the years that I should believe this or that thing.\nAnd honestly, I\u0027m tired of listening to them.\nIf there\u0027s no evidence to what you\u0027re saying, I\u0027m not believing it, simple as that.\nI\u0027m not going to no hell, there\u0027s no samsara, and thunders aren\u0027t cast by Zeus.\nAnd I\u0027m justifiably angry for having been fed those lies in the past by people financially and politically profiting from it.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EEven though I know it wasn\u0027t my fault in any way, I still feel embarrassed and kinda sorry for having been religious.\nThe world would be so much nicer, if we collectively cared more for evidence and reason \u2013\nand I used to be a part of a system actively working against that goal.\nOh well, I did my part trying to counteract that.

Let me tell you why.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI\u2019ve always been a curious kid. Asking thousands of questions about the world, reading popular science journals, being super diligent at school...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMy greatest fear was not understanding things. I was honestly suffering psychologically and emotionally from not being able to wrap my head around some concepts. Having a \u003Cstrong\u003Emental mess\u003C\/strong\u003E in my head was just painful.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnd there was one issue in particular that was bothering me \u2013 how did the world and humans \u003Cem\u003Eactually\u003C\/em\u003E come into being? At school I was taught about the big bang and about evolution, while at church I was told about a guy who \u003Cem\u003Ejust existed\u003C\/em\u003E and who took six days to \u003Cem\u003Esay things\u003C\/em\u003E and they just \u003Cem\u003Emagically\u003C\/em\u003E appeared. Two equally valid and reasonable hypotheses, right?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFor a reasonable adult, of course not! But for a ten-year-old who\u2019s been taught practically from birth to trust their parents and to believe whatever priests says? Who has learned to get on their knees and recite prayers earlier than learning to count? Who\u2019s been indoctrinated practically every day of their childhood?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EParents and catechists seemed not to notice \/ to actively ignore the obvious contradictions between their favourite book and what science \u003Cem\u003Eactually\u003C\/em\u003E knows about the universe. So I had to put my mind at rest by inventing a worldview that would somehow combine both of them: with a god who caused the big bang and then watched over the universe until the Earth formed, who created the first single-cell organism and then watched it evolve into humans... I swear, I\u2019ve never heard of \u201cInteligent Design\u201d at that age. I just went on with whatever made sense under the assumption that no one is \u003Cstrong\u003Elying to me\u003C\/strong\u003E. I didn\u2019t know that was an option.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThen came the teenage years and I can\u2019t even begin to describe what a horror it was to realise that I\u2019m a horny bitch. Not only I had sexual fantasies, not only did I masturbate and liked it, but I also started to think that I might be \u003Cstrong\u003Einto boys\u003C\/strong\u003E more than into girls.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ENow I know those are all amazing thing, but back then I was a good catholic boy. And to quote Stephen Fry:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cblockquote class=\u0022blockquote ml-4 pl-4 border-left\u0022\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt\u2019s the strangest thing about this church \u2013 it is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now, they will say we, with our permissive society and rude jokes, are obsessed. No. We have a healthy attitude. We like it, it\u2019s fun, it\u2019s jolly; because it\u2019s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult.\nIt\u2019s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/blockquote\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThere wasn\u2019t a week going by in which I wouldn\u2019t hear voices condemning \u201cimpure thoughts\u201d, masturbation, pornography or homosexuality... And the punishment for all of them was the eternal damnation in hell, worse than any suffering you can possibly think of. Can you imagine what damage being in this cult can do to a developing mind?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf the Catholic Church gets you to really believe in their bullshit, you start \u003Cstrong\u003Ehating yourself\u003C\/strong\u003E. Everything you do is potentially a sin. You have to regularly go to a cult guru and tell them all the worst things about yourself. Seriously, what sadist came up with the whole confession thing?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EGoing back to slightly more mundane things than psychological damage: religion can take up a lot of your \u003Cstrong\u003Etime\u003C\/strong\u003E. I didn\u2019t just go to a mass every Sunday. I was an altar boy, I was singing in a band, I was learning their bullshit at school, as if those were facts, I was going on pilgrimages, I was praying every day, I was spending a massive chunk of my time trying to reconcile my sexuality and morality with the \u201cmoral\u201d teachings of the Church... There\u2019s so many more useful things I could\u2019ve spent those hours and hours...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOh damn, it was supposed to be just a short note, but it\u2019s already gotten quite long... And I didn\u2019t even start complaining about all the awful and pointless traditions, about facing the catholic homophobia from my own family, about all those matters who didn\u2019t affect me personally but are still shitty, like opposing women\u2019s rights, the Rwanda genocide, pedophilia, anti-condom campaigns, etc. etc.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI know, I know, I\u2019ve been bitching about the Roman Catholicism, not religions in general, but the truth is, they all operate under a similar framework. It can be better (like Protestantism, being less dogmatic and less homophobic), it can be worse (like Islam, threatening death to apostates), but the underlying principle is the same: blind faith is more important than reason, and whatever rules we make up, you have to follow, or else...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt\u2019s abuse.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EGetting out of my cult \u003Cstrong\u003Efelt like escaping a prison\u003C\/strong\u003E.

Asking thousands of questions about the world, reading popular science journals, being super diligent at school...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMy greatest fear was not understanding things. I was honestly suffering psychologically and emotionally from not being able to wrap my head around some concepts. Having a \u003Cstrong\u003Emental mess\u003C\/strong\u003E in my head was just painful.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnd there was one issue in particular that was bothering me \u2013 how did the world and humans \u003Cem\u003Eactually\u003C\/em\u003E come into being? At school I was taught about the big bang and about evolution, while at church I was told about a guy who \u003Cem\u003Ejust existed\u003C\/em\u003E and who took six days to \u003Cem\u003Esay things\u003C\/em\u003E and they just \u003Cem\u003Emagically\u003C\/em\u003E appeared. Two equally valid and reasonable hypotheses, right?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFor a reasonable adult, of course not! But for a ten-year-old who\u2019s been taught practically from birth to trust their parents and to believe whatever priests says? Who has learned to get on their knees and recite prayers earlier than learning to count? Who\u2019s been indoctrinated practically every day of their childhood?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EParents and catechists seemed not to notice \/ to actively ignore the obvious contradictions between their favourite book and what science \u003Cem\u003Eactually\u003C\/em\u003E knows about the universe. So I had to put my mind at rest by inventing a worldview that would somehow combine both of them: with a god who caused the big bang and then watched over the universe until the Earth formed, who created the first single-cell organism and then watched it evolve into humans... I swear, I\u2019ve never heard of \u201cInteligent Design\u201d at that age. I just went on with whatever made sense under the assumption that no one is \u003Cstrong\u003Elying to me\u003C\/strong\u003E. I didn\u2019t know that was an option.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThen came the teenage years and I can\u2019t even begin to describe what a horror it was to realise that I\u2019m a horny bitch. Not only I had sexual fantasies, not only did I masturbate and liked it, but I also started to think that I might be \u003Cstrong\u003Einto boys\u003C\/strong\u003E more than into girls.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ENow I know those are all amazing thing, but back then I was a good catholic boy. And to quote Stephen Fry:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cblockquote\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt\u2019s the strangest thing about this church \u2013 it is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now, they will say we, with our permissive society and rude jokes, are obsessed. No. We have a healthy attitude. We like it, it\u2019s fun, it\u2019s jolly; because it\u2019s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult.\nIt\u2019s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/blockquote\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThere wasn\u2019t a week going by in which I wouldn\u2019t hear voices condemning \u201cimpure thoughts\u201d, masturbation, pornography or homosexuality... And the punishment for all of them was the eternal damnation in hell, worse than any suffering you can possibly think of. Can you imagine what damage being in this cult can do to a developing mind?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf the Catholic Church gets you to really believe in their bullshit, you start \u003Cstrong\u003Ehating yourself\u003C\/strong\u003E. Everything you do is potentially a sin. You have to regularly go to a cult guru and tell them all the worst things about yourself. Seriously, what sadist came up with the whole confession thing?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EGoing back to slightly more mundane things than psychological damage: religion can take up a lot of your \u003Cstrong\u003Etime\u003C\/strong\u003E. I didn\u2019t just go to a mass every Sunday. I was an altar boy, I was singing in a band, I was learning their bullshit at school, as if those were facts, I was going on pilgrimages, I was praying every day, I was spending a massive chunk of my time trying to reconcile my sexuality and morality with the \u201cmoral\u201d teachings of the Church... There\u2019s so many more useful things I could\u2019ve spent those hours and hours...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOh damn, it was supposed to be just a short note, but it\u2019s already gotten quite long... And I didn\u2019t even start complaining about all the awful and pointless traditions, about facing the catholic homophobia from my own family, about all those matters who didn\u2019t affect me personally but are still shitty, like opposing women\u2019s rights, the Rwanda genocide, pedophilia, anti-condom campaigns, etc. etc.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI know, I know, I\u2019ve been bitching about the Roman Catholicism, not religions in general, but the truth is, they all operate under a similar framework. It can be better (like Protestantism, being less dogmatic and less homophobic), it can be worse (like Islam, threatening death to apostates), but the underlying principle is the same: blind faith is more important than reason, and whatever rules we make up, you have to follow, or else...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt\u2019s abuse.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EGetting out of my cult \u003Cstrong\u003Efelt like escaping a prison\u003C\/strong\u003E.

But the main point is: now we might be less advanced than the Earthlings are, but we\u2019re way more advanced than they were three thousand years ago. We could use that to our advantage. Maybe Your Majesty\u2019s intelligence has some reliable intel about the Earthlings\u2019 history, weak spots of their species, etc.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOne of the Generals stood up. \u2018This is a top secret knowledge, but with Your Majesty\u2019s permission, I\u2019d like to share it with the members of the Senate in this time of crisis\u2019.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe Emperor nodded.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018We do, indeed, have plenty of intel about their past. We are able to pinpoint the exact point in time, where adding just a little bit of confusion and misinformation could lead them to basically destroy their own planet before they were even able to leave it in bigger numbers and save their species.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EA surprisingly cheerful murmur made a round among the Senators. Those monsters have a weak spot after all! Not all hope is lost!\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe General continued: \u2018They narrowly escaped an utter destruction after they had been exploiting the natural resources of their planet to its limit, producing tons and tons of carbon dioxide and other substances that are toxic for them, for their atmosphere and disastrous for their climate. They were facing horrible hurricanes, fires, floods, food shortage, etc. etc. All we need is to go back to that decisive moment and convince them not to care, to carry on and just hope for the best, or even not to even believe that the whole threat is real.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESomebody started clapping. Somebody started cheering. Soon the entire Hall was loud and visibly hopeful.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018ORDER!\u2019, thundered the Emperor. \u2018Let\u2019s have a plan ready first, before we start celebrating having a plan.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe Senator who proposed it realised that they aren\u2019t getting beheaded today. They have the Senate on their side. So\u2026 they started questioning their own idea now...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018Is this enough?\u2019, they asked the General. \u2018Shouldn\u2019t we have more ways to harm them, just in case this one doesn\u2019t work out? We won\u2019t get a second change at it.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe General didn\u2019t seem worried. \u2018Oh, trust me, Honorable Senator, those monsters might be invincible monsters now, but they have had plenty of problems in their past. For instance, the only reason they\u2019re even still alive today is a method of protection against diseases that they call \u201cvaccination\u201d. Never mind the details, but if we just convince enough humans that they don\u2019t really work, or that they are a scam, or that they have some bullshit side-effects, they\u2019ll start dropping in numbers faster than the asteroids fall on our Second Moon.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018They weren\u2019t always as united as a species as they are today, either. They used to have those things that they called \u201ccountries\u201d, that basically divided them into arbitrary groups who hated each other for no reason. Also, they come in different colours of the skin, which apparently used to be a valid reason to hate and kill each other for centuries. All we need is to make them keep doing it.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018What more is there...? Oh, this. Their technological advancement wouldn\u2019t have happened if it weren\u2019t properly funded. And it was only funded so well because they could afford it by taxing the rich, which led them to more social justice, less poverty, and more money for things that actually benefit them as a species.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018Their science also had to be supported by the majority to be successful. It could only happen because they finally rejected most of their primitive superstitions they called \u201creligions\u201d and decided to look at science for answers instead.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018We just need to stop their progress, that\u2019s it, and they\u2019ll finish themselves off. Let\u2019s make them disregard their environment, their science, their reason. Let\u2019s feed their hatred towards each other, let\u2019s spread the differences between them. If all goes well, we won\u2019t even have to fight the Earthlings. There will be no Earthlings.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EA storm of applause has passed around the Plenary Hall. The Emperor had to silence it again. One Senator stood up and asked: \u2018but how do we even get there?\u2019.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EA different General stood up this time and answered: \u2018again, it was a top secret military operation, but with your permission, Majesty...\u2019 \u2013 the Emperor nodded again \u2013 \u2018Last week the Royal Army has successfully taken over one of the enemy\u2019s spaceships. It is fully operational and able to travel back to Earth.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe Senator, who originally proposed time travel, stood up again and asked: \u2018Will the T\u0125arren\u00e6\u2019s Time Machine fit inside? Does it mean our troops can travel to Earth, perform the travel to the past over there, and possibly limit the consequences of The Law of Immense Reaction to \u003Cem\u003Etheir\u003C\/em\u003E planet? Does it mean that the only part of our timeline that will get destroyed would be the part between the Earthling\u2019s invasion and now? Will we just live as usual until the moment of invasion, then we won\u2019t notice that it was supposed to happen in the original timeline, and then continue to live our happy lives?\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe General wasn\u2019t sure what to say. \u2018For obvious reasons, not only haven\u2019t we studied time travel \u003Cem\u003Eenough\u003C\/em\u003E to know that for sure, we didn\u2019t study it \u003Cem\u003Eat all\u003C\/em\u003E. Who knows what\u2019s gonna happen? It will be a very risky operation, whatever we do. Worst case scenario: our entire existence will be wiped out. On the other hand, if we do nothing, or continue to fight a conventional war, the same will happen, except inevitably.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe silence was piercing the ears of everyone in the Plenary Hall. It was unbearable, scary, heavy. They knew it will be the hardest decision they have ever and will have ever taken.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018This will be the hardest decision of your lives\u2019, said Emperor K\u0125al\u0268d finally. \u2018But we have to make it as soon as possible. I\u2019ll leave the details to be worked out by the General Staff of my Royal Army, but the decision whether or not we do it at all lies entirely on the People\u2019s Senate.\u2019\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThey sat in their throne and left the podium to the Speaker of the Senate, who slowly approached it, cleared their throat and said loud and clear:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2018The most Honorable Senate of the People of Mendr\u0268a and its Three Moons is being asked by Their Majesty, Ruler of the Seven Continents, Sovereign of the Three Moons, Protector of Freedom, Emperor K\u0125al\u0268d, the fourth of this name, to vote on whether Their Royal Army should proceed to strive to save our Empire from the most atrocious invasion by the monsters from Earth, by using the Time Machine of the Great T\u0125arren\u00e6 of R\u0268\u0268n\u00f8, despite the chance of The Law of Immense Reaction possibly hurting us in unpredictable ways.

Does it mean that the only part of our timeline that will get destroyed would be the part between the Earthling\u2019s invasion and now?

Who knows what\u2019s gonna happen? It will be a very risky operation, whatever we do. Worst case scenario: our entire existence will be wiped out.

Possibly also spaceless and timeless?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAny god that has those attributes cannot possibly exist. He\/she\/it (let\u2019s stick to \u201che\u201d for simplicity), he would be \u003Cstrong\u003Eself-contradictory\u003C\/strong\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo be omnipotent, he has to be able to do literally everything.

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. If you\u2019re omnipotent, therefore able to create any universe you wish, but you decide to create one with evil in it, then you and only you are \u003Cstrong\u003Eresponsible for that evil\u003C\/strong\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOur apologist would now certainly say that our universe is the best possible one, and if god removed some evil from it, some other one would emerge in a different place. 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? Make up your mind, finally!)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOk, hands up, who deliberately does evil \u003Cstrong\u003Ejust because you can\u003C\/strong\u003E? Oh... apparently not that much, is it? Most of our evil-doing comes from the conditions we live in, that could easily be changed by an omnipotent being. God could\u2019ve created the world with more natural resources and more fair distribution thereof, so that we didn\u2019t have to work that hard and fight that much for them. God could\u2019ve created us with weaker sexual desires. Or at least reveal himself, so that we make an \u003Cstrong\u003Einformed\u003C\/strong\u003E decision about our beliefs. How could any of this lead to more evil, not less?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf suffering has to exist, because it makes us better human beings, how come the perfect god manages to be good without suffering?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnd what the fuck are all the parasites and diseases about? Innocent children are dying in huge numbers every day, totally senselessly. It builds their character? Their suffering enriches the world around them? Please...\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAlso, since god is so omnipotent, cannot he create a universe with free will but without evil? Even if such universe would be self-contradictory \u2013 isn\u2019t god self-contradictory as well?

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.

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?

Most of our evil-doing comes from the conditions we live in, that could easily be changed by an omnipotent being. God could\u2019ve created the world with more natural resources and more fair distribution thereof, so that we didn\u2019t have to work that hard and fight that much for them. God could\u2019ve created us with weaker sexual desires. Or at least reveal himself, so that we make an \u003Cstrong\u003Einformed\u003C\/strong\u003E decision about our beliefs. How could any of this lead to more evil, not less?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf suffering has to exist, because it makes us better human beings, how come the perfect god manages to be good without suffering?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnd what the fuck are all the parasites and diseases about? Innocent children are dying in huge numbers every day, totally senselessly. It builds their character? Their suffering enriches the world around them?
