Can I assume that you agree that there is no threat of God being usurped by what is stated on this thread?

Why do you assume that evil reigns? Perhaps it is in God's design to have this thread exist so that people can read it, as well as other views and determine what is the best path to him on an individual basis. Perhaps you are subverting God's plans by taking an approach that is filled with hatred rather than love and therefore obscuring the path for those who are still seeking Him.

Do you believe that God feels threatened by anybody who may be mocking him? If not, why do you feel threatened by it?

But then again, I can't give you a reason why you shouldn't speak a word against evil where you perceive it. It is exactly what motivated me to post to you tonight. So I guess this means that we are going to keep on going around in circles since you know that you are right about your interpretation of evil and I know that I am right about my interpretation of evil.

I believe that a person's path to God is sacred and personal and that it may take them through a variety beliefs before they find their destination. I believe that they have the right to express their beliefs (or lack thereof) at any point on the path.

I consider it evil to cause pain to other people who are expressing their personal beliefs (or lack thereof), based on those beliefs.

I guess that you and I will be our own version of a little perputual motion machine, each basing their actions on decrying evil when they see it.
