Session – 7

The Book of Genesis

 In session 6 we covered the logic behind the suffering of all woman due to Eve’s bite of a piece of fruit and the overwhelming use of contradictions by Christians’ to explain or cover up errors within the Bible; which are more numerous than Dark Energy which makes up 73% of the known Universe.

 Chapter 4: Cain & Abel

And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord (Gen. 4:1).  And she again bare his brother Abel.  And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground (Gen. 1:2).

 And in the process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the Lord (Gen. 1:3).  And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof.  And the Lord had respect unto Abel and his offering (Gen. 1:4).  But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.  And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell (Gen. 1:5).

 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him (Gen. 1:8).

 Who’s responsible for Abel’s death?  According to the Christian Doctrine; God is omniscience and therefore would have known that his acceptance of Abel’s offering and not Cain’s would have ultimately caused the death of Abel.

 Most Christian’s response to this would be along these lines “Yes, But, God gave everyone free will, (this free will stems from the creation of man through his image) so Cain acted alone.”

 One must remember two things here (1) free will may be present within an adult but; a child is still defenseless and has no will of its own. (2) According to Christian Doctrine; God knows all before, during and after no matter what is involved so; if God so loved Abel, why didn’t he save him?
