Who created evil?

Of course I think some translations are more accurate than others.

He created evil, capacity for evil, calamity, disaster, "Satan", diseases etc. etc. It's all "good" then?

I think God says we shouldn't judge others because we can't see the motives of the heart.

Do you acknowledge divegeester as your fellow Christian?

I don't know for sure if he is a Christian or not. But I don't think any 'Christian' should be attacking other 'Christians' or using fowl language.

I take your word for it when you claim to be a Christian and I'm pretty sure divegeester does too. You're not inclined to reciprocate the courtesy?

The way I understand the scripture God 'created calamity and disaster' by creating us with a free will. It was not meant to be evil but has the capacity for evil because we can choose to do evil. God does not make our choices for us.

As far as I recall he called me a troll and everything but a Christian. Your memory seems short.

How exactly did Fetch attack dive, if in fact he is the one you claim Fetch was attacking.

You refuse to acknowledge divegeester as a fellow Christian. Isn’t that an 'attack' on him, at the very least within Christian terms of reference?

I can think of a dozen people here who think you are a troll, at least part of the time. Has he ever refused to acknowledge you as, or denied that you are, a fellow Christian?

I don't recall him acknowledging that I am. I have never referred to him as a non Christian. When I said he is attacking his 'fellow Christians' does that not mean I acknowledge him as one?
