I'm not a christian, but I grew up in a Baptist household, so I have at least a passing understanding of the Bible. Lemme know if I got any wrong.
If I'm understanding the bible correctly;
God Created heaven and Earth, Including Mankind and Angels
God is all-knowing and all-powerful
Relevant to this discussion, God created Lucifer and all the angels who sided with him.
God made Man in His image, and ordered the angels to serve them.
Lucifer, prideful of his own beauty, and envious of God's (at least perceived) favoritism of Man, and of God's position, started a rebellion in heaven and was/will be cast down into the lake of fire(aka Hell).
lucifer later tempted/took the form of the Serpent in the Garden of Eden and tempted Eve to eat of the Tree of Knowledge.
my conclusion: God, with full knowledge of what lucifer would do/become created him and set him on the path that led to his downfall, and to the Sin of Mankind.
Or to put it more simply; God created Sin through his foreknowledge of what Lucifer would become.
I'm not trying to start a shitstorm here, but this is the logical conclusion that I find myself at.
Any Christian pedes wanna poke holes in this for me?
Same here fren. While I type this my spousal unit is imploring me to get off the damn computer and go mow the grass.
Thank the lord for the invention of the 54'' Zero Turn Cub Cadet!
lol, I'm happy for you, but I made a lil mistake when I bought my last lawnmower😂
Indeed you did! It's kind of strange that among the items listed along with the mower is a gas can.
$16.28 Scepter 1 Gallon Capacity SmartControl Gas Can
SmartControl model. That means you have to be Smart just to figure out how to get the gas out of the can. (I'd like to choke the guy who designed the environmentally friendly nozzle on can's like this.) First thing I do when I buy one is take a hacksaw and drill to it.
Don't you dare lay a hand on him on until I get my licks in first...
thanks to CA laws (no doubt), it's a bitch to get a useable gas can anymore. I actually kept the lid off of an old one until it snapped in half, because of those goddamn things...
...and safety my ass. god help you if the fucker tips over, they spill gas everywhere. I keep 5 gallons in the bed of my pickup just in case, and the number of times I've had gas all over the bed is infuriating. Not to mention needing to keep a damn vent open on my "topper" so the whole thing doesn't become a bomb from fume buildup...
honestly, the more I think about it, I use a funnel anyway (good luck getting that sonuvabitch into a car gas tank without one), so I think I'll take a trip to the hardware store for a sheet of PVC. figure if I hack the knozzle out, I can use the screw on ring and a piece of PVC to make a cap...
yeah, I figured it'd be easier than having to get gas all the time for the lawnmower, jokes on me now. One battery (I actually have a 20v, not that one, but I didn't see mine anymore so :shrug: ) lasts for maybe one fifteen-by-four foot swathe, then I had to swap in another and let the first one charge for four hours -_-# three 4MAH batteries and one 2MAH battery(i've bought a few other tools fromt he same company, why I opted for the 20v) barely gets the left side of the path to the front door.
My USED gas lawnmower would do my entire yard and I'd only have to refill the (rough guess) 1quart gas tank once. Not to mention it rarely if ever clogged from the three foot grass I inevitably have, because my procrastinating ass never gets anything accomplished until it's a disaster.
