Hey... how do you make your borders? I've been trying and they just don't come out right. I didn't want to copy any of yours so do you think you could help me out?

Not really anything with the religion itself, just fundamentalist extremists XD Their whole mindset confuses me. But to each their own I guess.

-ohh....what do you mean by fundamentalist extremists?

Ugh, mass confusion DX
Anyway, thanks and sorry for like, attacking your comments page with pointless questions XD

-No Problem! :) you have some great questions! I'm happy to answer any that you have :)
is there anything that you're still confused about?

Wait a minute. I thought when referring to humans, Man was capitalized.

-That is true in some cases. But in the bible it does not capitalize "man". At least not in the translation that i have :)

Ah, that makes sense.
But doesn't "commanded the man" mean just Adam? Wouldn't it have had more effect on Eve if god had told her himself, rather than hearing it through Adam? Like, I get that it was technically her own fault for not listening, but if she had god himself telling her not to, I think she would've been a lot more hesitant about listening to the serpent.

-I'm glad that helped :)
When the bible says "man" they don't always refer to just men. Man can refer to the mankind or our race of humans. Not just gender.
When God told Adam this He also in a way told Eve also.
The main point is that Eve was aware that she was not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but even knowing this (and being told by God and Adam at some point of her existence) that she did disobey and sin against God.
After this it goes on in Genesis to talk about how they were kicked out of the garden of Eden and it also talks about their punishments they received.

Now I'm confused xD
I get that Eve ate the apple, but since God gave her free will, it's sort of expected in a way. She was tricked, she never had any contact with God since she pretty much worshiped him through Adam, so how could she know that what she did was wrong or had dire consequences? God never said (I don't think anyway, correct me if I'm wrong) what would happen if anyone ate the fruit.

-When God created Adam and Eve he told them both that they could eat of every tree in the garden, except the tree of knowledge and evil. They could have anything they wanted but they just couldn't eat of that one tree. God loves us and honestly wants to have a relationship with us. But he doesn't force us. He's given us free will. Eve was deceived. But if you think about it. She shouldn't have been near the tree anyways. She allowed herself to be tempted. When the serpent talked to her she should've just left. But she didn't and from that she ate of the fruit and disobeyed God.
God also told them in Genesis 2:16-17.
16 And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."
(By die God meant a spiritual death). She then gave the fruit to Adam (who ate it also).

And not to be rude/ignorant or anything, but would that mean all the good is made by god, and ALL the bad is basically mankind's fault (even though it was only Adam and Eve's fault)?

Like, I know it's because of the Fall in Eden and what not we have to labor and such, but if he was really that forgiving (I mean, he released SATAN(!) from chains), why couldn't he just allow mankind a second chance?

I haven't read the Bible, so if that issue was addressed forgive me for being totally unaware xD


-You didn't sound mean don't worry :) I'm happy to explain:
you have that part right that every good thing is from God. It says in
"James 1:17-Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." This shows how great God is and that every good thing is from him.
Also, God did give us a second chance. He sent His son Jesus Christ to save us. Through His son we can get to Him and into heaven. He is the only way to heaven. If you really think about it God has been so gracious to us. With the fall of eden. God had told adam and eve that they could eat out of every tree but the tree of life. Satan (disguised as a snake) temped Eve who ate the fruit and gave it to adam. They were then kicked out of eden.
Basically, our relationship is damaged with God because of sin. But through Jesus Christ (who died, was buried, and then 3 days rose again) we are able to get to God through HIm.

-God Bless :)

Ask Nietzsche. His quote.
Though I'm fairly certain he means he doesn't like a god that's full of himself, needs attention, etc. It's basically like he (if he exists) only does things for the praise and recognition. Not because he cares.

Besides, the terrible things in the world outweigh the good, so why should people praise him?



-Hey, sorry it took me so long to reply; that terrible stuff isn't God's fault. Those things happen because of man's sin not because God wants to punish us.

you're quotes are AMAZING! honestly; they're some of the best i've ever seen. keep up the good work!
