Gnostic Bishop Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Satan gave man love. Was it worth the hate? Adam thought so. He instantly and without argument or hesitation ate of that knowledge when Eve offered love to Adam. Without Satan causing Original Sin, mankind could no know of love or hate as love and hate are subject to being good or evil. Would you do as Adam did? Was Satan right in opening our eyes to love and hate? Should we venerate Satan more than Yahweh who tried to deny mankind love? Regards DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards DL Hi @Gnostic Bishop How would you distinguish love from hate (not lack of love) if they appeared the same? (begging the question, I know) (my thinking: not being able to tell is foundational to moral relativism, being 'lost' like a sailor out in the middle of the sea without any means to navigate) Edited September 14, 2018 by barn were->appeared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan is the Monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey that changed the proto-men into men capable of perfecting their technical practice. Satan is therefore the creator of mankind, a kind of Prometheus.

MahtiSonni Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Biblically speaking, God is love. So the GB argument here is that Satan gave mankind love by getting them turn their backs on love and choosing evil in its stead. How to discuss with someone who redefines death and getting stuck in shackles of sin love? I do not think there is such a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
