Did you ever study American History? Have you ever studied World History? I think you should be able to answer that question yourself.

Is that the best you can do? This question is one of the dumbest I've ever seen on this forum.

Except God didn't intend for anyone to be atheist. But he gave us free will.

Standard definition.

In regards to the Old Testament? The term "just" is on pretty flimsy grounds there. The definition seems to depend on what side of the fence you're on. If you're the Caananites, Midianites, Anakites, or the Sihonites, you probably have a different view of what "just" is. LMAO

Not a strong point with them, I know
Well, wait a minute. The Democrats have been tearing conservatives down for years, through smears and ridicule (Rules for Radicals). Why shouldn't we do the same? Besides, we have so much more material!!!

I've never quite understood the free will argument. I can't make sense of it.

If i have free will, but an Omniscient being knows everything i'm gonna do before i'm even born, then how is my will all that free?

We are all born with God given rights.
The right to freedom.
The right to speak our mind.
The right to practice our religious beliefs.
The right to protect ourselves.
The right to pursue prosperity.
The right to liberty.

Depending on the geographical location that you are born, some bureaucrats limit or keep you from having these rights.
