[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The idea that God must be all flowers and gum drops is a very childish one. At least to me. How else can people be tested if not through trial and tribulations? Challenges in life sometimes mold us to become stronger individuals with better character. This is the purpose of life. To learn about ourselves and about love.[/quote] I agree with this. I've never understood the concept of a completely benevolent and merciful God. Not saying that I'm an atheist, but I agree it's infantile to believe in a totally "good" God. It makes much more sense that God has a dangerous, tumultuous, aggressive side - particularly if you believe in a God that is omnipotent and omniscient. The "Devil" has always seemed like a concept that's an excuse - for not wanting to accept that God that had a "bad" side (which God has to have, to create a Devil in the first place), or maybe misplacing human responsibility.
