I don't think God is evil.

Just distracted.

She should have never left the primordial soup to boil over.

Distracted by what?  Is she no good at multi-tasking?

So god is omniscient, god is omnibenevolent, and bad things happen only when distracted?

Well the extinction record seems to indicate when she is distracted creation goes wrong.

Or maybe all the mass extinction events were when it was her God time of the month?

Yes.

Sort of like marriage.

Drafts. The dinosaurs, for example, were drafts.

Btw, if you ever feel a bit down and want to cheer yourself up, just picture a T Rex trying to make the bed with those short arms.

LOL.

Mind you I reckon we are a draft too as AI and robotics will not so far off make clear.

Well, back in the day, Yahweh was married, so...

This sub-forum is not about God, its about not-God. The mods should move it to spirituality.

But in order to talk about not God, you have to talk about the God you know is not.

You can not play heads or tails without both sides of the coin.

Or understand Hinduism without rock, paper, scissors.

Any debate about God or gods is ultimately fruitless considering that
neither exist in the real world.

So there is no point in proclaiming yourself an atheist then.

All ideas have thesis and anti-thesis.

By the way, you really need to review the treads created here.

It is not all about Richard Dawkins sour nature.

What did God say to the atheist when the quantum physicist could not empirically prove string theory?

"I was just flying kites."

Well, I only use the term "atheist" because people usually
look at me blankly when I tell them I'm ignostic.  It usually
kills any potential religious debate on the spot LOL.

Me:   I'm an ignostic.

Them:   Uh... um... okay.  No problem.

Where does the 'real world's end and the other one begin?  Don't people who believe in god/s, and who believed through the ages, live and lived in the 'real world'?

You think the 21st century is some sort of culmination just because you live in it?

That is a very good question, with no real answer.

If the world of theoretical quantum physics by our guide.

As Spock would say.

Fascinating.

I personally love theoretical Quantum Theory, it offers possibilities that are amazing .

I like the thought of infinite ME's in string time.

Some of whom have not buggered up their entire lives.
