You're assuming that people have choice, which is inconsistent with the idea that there is an all-knowing god who created us.
Argument as follows:
1. Assume an all-knowing, all-powerful God exists.
2. Assume the aforementioned God created us.
3. Being all-powerful, God could have created us in any way he wanted.
4. Being all-knowing, God knew the exact consequences of creating us in each particular way, including what 'choices' the people would make.
5. God chose to create us in a certain way, thus deciding our 'choices' for us. If we were able to make a different decision, then God would not be all-knowing, thus contradicting 1.
Without choice, I think the notion of sin and a 'bad person' falls down, especially as it has to be god that created sin.
That's right.
Christianity always claim that there is only one God in heaven and stuff like that. But allow me to explain the essence of this notion.
The truth is, there isn't only one God and all the others are the so callled the angels; there are actually more Gods than we can count. As a matter of fact, some of us were once Gods or Goddesses and why we are here has been stated previously as you now know.
So why the Christian faith keeps emphasising on this is because different race belongs to different kingdoms of heaven. One fact I've gathered is no asians or blacks can enter into the Kingdoms of heaven for the whites.
Asians can only ascend into their own world provided if they genuinely practice Buddhism or other forms of religion that hasn't been widely preached by monks, etc. This may also apply for the whites unable to enter the asian world of heavens. And there are the blacks that also belong to certain heavenly worlds. THe point is, Jesus Christ tried to prevent the CHristians spreading their faith/religion to other race because those asians that do practice CHristianity are wasting their effort because they will never be accepted into the white world. (Sorry for keep calling it the white world, I really don't know the correct name for it). This is also because Jesus Christ is only just powerful enough to help his own people "the whites" to be cultivate so they can return to their heavenly worlds.
Btw Jesus Christ is a great god who came down to earth as a saviour but there are many many more greater Gods with greater powers, knowledge, that are above Jesus Christ. I'm point this out because it is relevant to the fact that heaven is not just ONE place like Earth that is more pleasant. It's something you might already be aware of, it's the dimensions that co-exist with the space we also occupy. Its space is much thinner than ours and we tend to recognise it as some place higher above us but it is really a place that is higher multi-laterally. For example, the air in heaven is much thinner. There are also many many numerous layers of heaven that exist and the higher one goes, the thinner the air becomes.
The fact about what it's really like in heaven such as thinner air might not be true. But I'm just using it as an example to illustrate the point that heavens come in layers and the higher the layers, the better and more powerful the GOds are in it.
