I would like to address this statement specifically from the CHICKEN POT PIE thread.
If one person's good is another person's evil, how can anyone put a definition on these terms? If you cannot put a definition on these terms, how do you define God and Satan, who are supposed to be the ideals of Good and Evil?
By that statement, God takes a different shape and purpose for every single person on the planet.
With that, how then, can any single religion claim to be right about their view of God?

Your premise is wrong, therefore your conclusion will be wrong as well. The current system of "good and evil" is Satan's policy for the world, not God's desire.[/b]

The statement was made in these current times, after the "rejection" of God's system. The question I ask is still a valid one.
If God defines what is good and Satan defines what is evil and everyone definition of these is different.....
Who is to say which is the correct way?

Second - you are evading the question. Christians have defined God and all that is good and Satan as all that is Evil. That is a Christian definition, not a worldly one, not mine, not some alien from another planet. Since CHRISTIANS have defined them as such and it is very clear that each individual person's definition of what is good and what is evil differs...does that not make God and Satan different for each person? Step-by-step logic shows that this is the case.

Bubble bursting time, I'm afraid. While I do not doubt that you have heard a Christian or two spouting off such nonsense, I submit for your consideration that said Christians would have difficulty discerning between chicken salad and chicken sh!t.

You'll have to support such a position, as it is clearly not a biblical definition.

You, of course, are welcome to insult and slam your fellows as much as you wish.
