    Christianity is monotheistic, therefore we only believe in on God, but this one God has three separate but equal parts to it? If we say that there is only the Father, God, we are wrong, because the Father has a Son, sends his one and only son to the earth and sends the Holy Spirit to us, but these three persons are the same? Does this mean that the Father God has himself, sends his one

    Professor Johnson explains how society sees God in five different ways. One, that God is invisible higher being or entity, who sees everything and can intervene with our world in order to bring changes. Second, God is seen as someone who oversees everything and thus “rules” the world in manner that seems fit. Third, God is always portrayed as “He”, even though being referd to as the Supreme Being, and is remote from this materialistic world. Forth, God is presented as one who loves the world but

    perfect God allows evil into the world that he/she created. This question has brought about many answers and much debate between believers and non-believers. I have done a lot of reading on this dilemma and hope to address it through looking at a few key points. First, I want to address the question, what do we, as humans perceive as evil. To answer that question, I will look at both physical and moral evil, as well as try to explain what both are, and how they should not be blamed on God. Secondly

    this text titled GOD by Simon Blackburn, the protagonist agues of beliefs and other things. I am going to argue that there does not exist a super or godlike being who is all good, all knowing, all powerful. (40 words) In the text titled The problem of Evil, Blackburn infers that god is not fit to be worshipped and should not be the origin principle of right and wrong. God supposedly has perfect morals and is infinite in power allowing him to accomplish anything he desires. God is an all-powerful

    From the Excerpts on God from a Neo-Scholastic Theology Book, we learn from its first section that God is a subsistent (continuously existing) being, and that he is existence itself. As written by Reys in the first excerpt "Subsistent Being," "[God's] existence is not an activity distinct from the ultimate being... Its 'nature' and 'existence' are one single eternal fact" (CP2 10). Likewise, we see this same fact in Chapter 3 of CP2, where it says, "With anything other than God, you can distinguish

    God and humans have had a relationship since God created them. This relationship started with humans thinking of God as their father and creator, and a God who forgives. We think of God this way because as humans we can be hospitable and kind, but we can also not follow God’s plan and make mistakes. These mistakes reveal the forgiveness in God, and our hospitality and kindness show that God is our Father and loves us. Humans direct relationship with God allows him to work through us and show humans

    between God and man or “the divine”. In these stories the gods are almost always close by. The gods in Gilgamesh are very similar to the humans in terms of appearance. Not only that but they behave similar as well. They have emotions and feel things but also expect things of the humans. They want sacrifices and for the humans to obey them. In obeying and pleasing the gods however, the humans in return expect to be guided by the gods and kept safe. This is because the humans see the gods as unconquerable

    very well about god at the time so despite me liking Greek mythology, actually believing it never crossed my mind. I will explain the overall difference between Gods sovereignty and that of Greek fatalism. If you so happen to be a Christian that knows about Greek mythology, then one thing stands out the most; there is only one god in Christianity besides there are several gods in Greek mythology. Zeus (the highest and most powerful god) created all gods in Greek mythology, as in our god that has been

    This quote is very introspective about deities. And it is true. Many gods in myths and legends are not known to be kind. This is why people try to appeal to them in sacrifices and offerings, fearing the gods’ wrath in the form of natural disasters and sickness. The concept of deities was formed in order to explain unknown things, and since people before could not predict natural disasters, they hoped that their worship will stop the bad things from happening. Even now, people appeal to deities for
