Condemning God

Submitted by Robert Lockett (guest) on Sun, 05/03/2009 - 11:42pm.

I ask to discuss a tangent of the ID debate.

Like myself, most design advocates (but not all) believe in the Biblical God to one degree or another. I am of the more literal variety.

Somewhat recently, I was challenged by a very honest individual on a legitimate point surrounding the God of the Bible. He more or less said that he was disgusted at the conception of a God who would condemn us for the way He made us.

After some reflection I did respond to the person, but I wanted to see what others here think about the matter.

And please, call it like you see it. I am not going to deny God's responsibility at the heart of the issue or employ mystical theological maneuvering to make it go away.

What say you?
