      Well, in terms of overturning the created order and destroying God, he can't win, no. He can however seperate himself from God and his created order and go into the spiritual darkness of Hell, as we have the same choice.
      but if god is omniscient, he knew there would be evil... so he knowingly created evil... doesn't that make god evil?

        No. Foreknowledge of an event does not equal foreordination of that event.

          Shi, would you mind speaking before a couple of small audiences of conservative Christians?

                I've liked the New Jersey Devils since they wore the green uniforms. Does that make me a Satanist?

                  uhmmm but if you knowingly do something that you know will be evil, aren't you responsible?

                    Sure, I argue with my more conservative Catholic brethren all the time.

                            I don't take the old testament literally. It says there is a God, which I certainly don't take literally.

                            If you believe in God based on a book, why not believe in the other things based on the same book?
