That is where religion fails...despite Joe's rantings. you people just give up and say, "Oh well, God is good, and only good", despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
First of all, it's not "you people" because I'm an agnostic. Secondly, you face a paradox of your own when you talk about God, good, and evidence to the contrary.

That's because if there is no God there is no good or evil. Yes, I know atheists have tried ad nauseam to come up with arguments for why there can be intrinsic good and evil without the "something else" outside setting the rules as to what constitutes good and evil. But all of the arguments fail.

You can't argue that there is no God because God does evil because if there is no God there is no distinction between good and evil to begin with. And yes I know there are people who think you can argue otherwise. But you really can't.

John,
As you well know, the nature of all truth is Paradoxical
Thus the foundation of agnosticism. From Websters:
a person who holds the view that any ultimate reality (as God) is unknown and probably unknowable; broadly : one who is not committed to believing in either the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Though not ALL truth is paradoxical. This message board exists, for instance. No paradox about that.
