Okay so Lucifer obviously upset his sky-daddy, is demoted from being an angel permanently, is cast down to rule an entire sector of the afterlife called Hell which we come to know where all damned souls go after they die.

What is the logic of God practically awarding Lucifer an entire realm for him to rule on his own and nearly contest God’s power?

That’s like imprisoning someone to home confinement when they live in a mansion.

    Yeah, why does God have to be judgemental, mannn… It’s not like people do horrific things like enslaving (what God punished the egyptians for after literally 9 warnings) genocide, rape(a sin of Sodom and Gomorrah) cause illness or hoard money. /s

    Also, Mary did literally consent and then praised God.

    Luke 1:35, 38

    And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God.

    And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

    Luke 1:46-49

    And Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant. For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.

    Also

    while satan welcomes all who come to his realm, to better themselves. Are you literally getting your theology from Hazbib Hotel? Satan hates you. He despises you more than any human has hated anybody. He is a resentful prick who wants to drag you down with him because his shitty coup failed. Satan doesn’t rule hell. He’s suffering there and jealous that he wants to deprive mankind of heaven.

      Didn’t god create rape, genocide, disease, etc… by definition? Or he can’t do anything about that?

      Also I’m not sure if a teenage girl can consent when it’s the god of the universe. Pretty wild power dynamics there.

        The “teenage” part isn’t biblical either. And she clearly did. God wouldn’t have chosen someone who was unwilling.

        God will destroy these evils - but you call that “judgy”

        The folly of trying to have your cake and eat it
