Jake1997...I am familiar with what the bible says....Adam created, then Eve, then the sin and the banished to earth....etc....was just getting straight to the point.
Anyway, I think you are missing the point. My argument is....why would god create man in the first place if he is so powerful? To serve him? To pray to him? For his love? Why would he need all that?
And slymattb, you bring up an interesting point about god and the devil. I do agree that the devil is a fallen angel and he took other angels with him as well. And then god gave man choice....to follow him or the devil. And he said that if you follow the devil I will put you in hell.
Man....what a power trip god is on. First he creates man, then he gives him freedom of choice, then (in his almighty mercy) he spares the fallen angels when they oppose him, next he tells man that if they follow him they go to heaven where there is untold pleasures, of not they will go to hell where they will burn for eternity. Sound to me like a sadistic joke god is playing on humans!!
