Souls and God

Name: Nanami 2008-05-20 12:35

Now I haven't read much about logic or stuff so if someone could formulate my problem with a better language I'd be thrilled.
Let's say God is omniscient.
Because of his omniscience he will only act in one way, seeing how he's because of mentioned omniscience seeing himself act in the future, now and the past.
Now let's take a soul.
God is the creator of all souls, since he is the creator of everything. Which means that he makes a conscious decision when creating a particular soul. Because of his omniscience he will see this souls future before he's even created it, he will see whether or not this soul will sin or not.
Now here comes my point:
If God is truly omniscient, then why does he knowingly create souls that inevitably will sin and revolt against God, thus being condemned to hell?
The way one can explain this is if God's either not:
Omniscient

or

All benevolent

What do you guys think?
Did I think it through this time?

There are many ways of looking at the world where proof is irrelevant.
U FAIL.  The only way to look at the world without descending into infantile superstitions and other such nonsense, is through evaluating evidence and coming up with conclusions based on those.

You just, er, religiously believe in the scientific paradigm even though all proof is based on an unprovable set of assumptions in this paradigm.
U FAIL.  Science delivers provable results.  These results can be replicated by whomever cares to.  Religion just delivers genocide and other such spectacular sufferings and displays of sophomoric stupidity.

Daily life =/= an analogy for theories on the existence of God.
U FAIL.  Daily life IS living.  You speak of an unlivable reality, which by definition cannot be experienced.

You should be saying "ouch", since it only takes about 3 seconds to destroy your so-called arguments.  That's that easy to do since you have already dismissed the need for evidence to decide things -- particularly important things like if a divinity exists.  By dismissing the need for evidence, you're in the realm of fantasy, where it's easy to be wrong since it's all a fucking FICTION PLAY anyway.

You religifreaks are completely stupid.  What I'm doing here isn't much of a feat since a 12-yr-old with basic instruction in logic can PWN you up, down and sideways.  I mean, really:  "proof is irrelevant"?  What kind of fucking immature moron actually believes such stupidity?  Oh yeah, the religitards who hang around other religifucks so as to never encounter the sane people like myself WHO DEMAND PROOF OF OUTRAGEOUS ASSERTIONS LIKE THE EXISTENCE OF A DEITY.
