Quote by: Lullaby Chainer And you, my freind, have a embarresing childish and lack of understanding or respect for the conceptual powers God supposedley has to use at his own will. You really think a book like Fahrenheit 451(horrible book I might add) is a reasonable bundle of creative ideas to which a GOD would have trouble avoiding? You seem to be oblivious or just plain ignorant to the very structure on which my "ideal god" thoughts were based on. The only world I speak of is nothing less than Heaven, a place commonly known in the Christian world for being arguabley a LOT better than here on Earth. I believe they even call it a utopian of sorts. If the world I speak of is so destined to fail as forseen by your grand display of all-knowing books, than Heaven would inevitabley face the same fate. You say paradise would strip us of our humanity? I'd hate to see what Heaven's like. Though I would hope God isn't as simple minded as you are and allows himself to think beyond a few books written by limited minds and realize his powers are limitless and thus he is capable of so much more. ^^ Even after your selfmockery you proceed with words of "selfishness" when I clearly indicated that such emotions or feelings would no longer exist, and I would hope even you would be able to understand that this is all very possible when dealing with the unlimited powers of God. Surely this is where your joke must stop, but no? With the power of God, I would imagine, lifts the burden of stress and clears the mind.

The difference between Heaven and your mythical utopia is that the former is run by a Being who is good (all the time) and the latter would be run by a fallible human. If you're not a little cynical about mankind, you should be. I maintain that an average person with omnipotence would be a terror. We make a mess of the few things we have power over now.

I also scoff at your arrogance and self-importance. I highly doubt you are on par with the aforementioned writers, limited though they may be. Don't forget, Caesar, thou art mortal. You can't even manage the rudiments of spelling your post correctly, much less the weightier concepts of cosmology. I don't limit God at all. I would never presume to do such. But having a lot of power does not make you God. God isn't just a bigger version of us like the Greeks and Romans thought. God is something different entirely. It is very much to our benefit that the One who holds all of the power is beneficent.
