its bullshit

I tell people that you can't praise god for the good and not blame him for the bad.

Obviously those people believe in a capricious and unloving god who uses people as toys and discards them as they get old, disfigured, sick or unwanted.

The miracle vs the "tragical." You can't have one without the other.

Edward Currant (religious Poe type satire on youtube) came up with the term in one of his videos some time back.

If God is omniscient and omnipotent, I don't see how he could "intervene" at any time. If he knows everything that's going to happen and controls everything, then everything must have been set up exactly the way he wanted it to at creation. He couldn't not know something or change his mind, and no situation could arise that's not part of his plan. That's why I never understood praying for something to happen. I'd be like, "why? He's already decided everything, duh.". And don't even get me started on "Satan", who is also supposedly a creation of this all knowing, all powerful God. If Gods own creation could undermine him in any way, he'd be a lousy object of worship.

You have to be pretty shallow in your thinking to accept this stuff. It took me a short time as a child to sort it out.

Selective good deeds and selective tragedies.

It's god's will. LMAO
