      A narcissistic asshole gaslighting its victims into believing they’re not really victims because the narcissistic asshole made a bet.

      It’s supposed the be an explanation for how evil can exist despite a benevolent creator… but it sums up as a sock puppet to which the explanation is “you wouldn’t understand”

        It’s also completely undermined in Isaiah.

        I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

        Isaiah 45:7. Evil exists because God creates evil.

          pretty sure Isaiah didn’t conceive of a benevolent god.

          pretty sure Isaiah’s god (all four isaiahs, in fact,) was a pretty freaking angry god.
