My friend, Julian Haydon, has recently been trying to make his arguments as succinct as possible. This is a great effort at being concise, and yet right on the money.
GREATER EVIL IS BEYOND THE IMAGINATION OF MAN
than that a God,
perfect in every way,
all-powerful,
needing nothing,
knowing everything
past, future and even possible;
a loving, just, merciful and forgiving Father;
should summarily create,
from innocent nothingness,
creatures capable of suffering,
while knowing in advance,
which ones he will consign
to suffer eternally!
No act of his ‘creature-victim’
could justify this verdict of unsurpassable hate,
injustice and mercilessness;
all, the very definition of unforgiving.
Nothing more is needed,
though volumes provide it,
to prove that such a God
is not and never was,
except as the sick
creation of
man.
