Ouch

Fucking whoosh. If god doesnt allow immoral behavior to be physically possible (like sprouting wings or floating isnt allowed) then it isnt an affront to free will anymore than me not being able to decide to sprout wings you idiot. God if it exists and is all powerful, made the conscious decision to create the ability for people to kill people, enslave people, rape people, etc. These things only exist because god wanted us to choose between them, even though there is no reason for that choice to exist. I can think of an infinite number of reasons id rather choose to have or not have wings than choose if i am going to kill someone, both of those are choices but only 1 involves an affront to morality. Gods choice to allow immorality is not because it would violate free will, we already dont have free will. If we had free will, i could decide to sprout wings and fly, but i dont, so i cant. Why this god didnt allow me to sprout wings is unexplained, just like why he does allow me to kill others is unexplained. Thr only clear thing here is that god decided i shouls choose between killing people or not killing people, and not choose between flying and not flying. One has terrible moral implications, the other is harmless. Both are an exercise of free will, but 1 a moral god would never choose.
