I mean, he did give us cars and smartphones so maybe he's not that bad
Allah has laws, you break it, he can do whatever he wants to you.
It is funny how in society's laws, you'll be arrested or executed for transgressions, but God doing the same thing is looked at as strange.
If I ever make to jannah, I would request to see you godless beasts.
Yah because your opinion trumps facts.No they're not divine it's just the law of 7th Century Arab merchant later turned warlord.
"If I ever make to jannah, I would request to see you godless beasts"
You're telling this to people who don't believe in your warped sadomasochistic fantasies. Doesn't bother us in the slightest.
You've just thrown verses of scripture at me

Well none of us believe the devil exists so that statement is meaningless to be frankly honest.
What we were discussing was just a hypothesis based on what we know about God and the devil. It's foolish to claim that God is the most merciful (because he said so) and yet believe in eternal damnation whilst proclaiming the devil is the worst there is. Even Hitler with all his done could never wish to stoop to the depths of cruelty that your God is willing to endow on all who come to a rational conclusion based on what little evidence (or lack there of) of his own existence.
I simply don't like your God (from the way he is described).
How awfully convenient.
When it suits you use the Quran to make the devil seem better than God, using your own morals as a judge. At other times, however, you conveniently discredit the whole thing.
This thread was a tongue in cheek one in nature I don't believe Satan or Allah actually exist
The difference is that you used quotes and treated them like they're reality and actually facts so like I stated in my previous comment; quoting scripture as an factual, authoritative document will immediately switch me off.
If you own the key to life and set up all the amenities necessary for that life to thrive, you engineered all things visible and nonvisible, then some of your creations choose to go against your expectations, and you let them live and continue to thrive, they insult you on a daily basis, mock your message and those who believe in it, that you let those vermin you could squash effortlessly enrich themselves to their heart's content and you offer them chances to see things differently, for sure, you would be labeled most merciful. Allah deserves best example and I don't mean to degrade the almighty in the parable I have written above, but you get the idea of how his mercy is what enables you to question him while you breath his air necessary for your blood stream to get rich in oxygen and you live on to be this mocking creature of his.
Logic would have us question the "Who" behind what we see in our everyday life. No one in his right mind would accept my message self typed without my action, yet that is what atheism asks us to do, have a leap of faith in the illogical.
I can't use verses, yet you can use certain elements of Islam, such as the story of Ibraahiim (عليه السلام) And the story of Khadar and the stories of Ahlu Madyan, Qawmu Nuux, Qawmu Huud, and Qawmu Luut to twist the Quran to depict Allah as evil and Ibliis as good. Sound fair to you?
Wow this is rich
first of all, my Atheism isn't an active claim of of knowledge that God doesn't exist it's merely the default position I hold because nobody has provided credible evidence there is a Omnipotent, Omniscient being. If such evidence does appear to reveal itself I'll be more than willing to drop the Atheist title.
That said, even if you can prove via evidence that such a Deity exists you'd then have to prove that such a being is Allah and not some other God and finally you'd have to provide evidence Allah remained in contact with a 7th Century Arab for the best part of 23 years.
I don't you can provide evidence for the first part let alone the second and third.
I can depict him as an evil fictional character yes, just as the Joker in Batman is or Kefka in Final Fantasy.

BTW Jujuman, for your benefit;
Allah is word/noun that denotes no sex i.e. It is sex Neutral word, nor male or female, the only word that befits a being who is not similar to his creatures. Also, the Allah in Islam, is the same God other human beings in History worshipped by calling him different names in their own languages. So, it is your own misunderstanding that Allah is different from what humans taught each other throughout history. The mode of worship, the method and the manners were different because of local cultures, but to humans, no matter when and where they lived, they always had a word for God.
The Jews call him "Elohim", "Yahweh". English speaking societies call him God, Somalis used to call him Waaq as reported, makes no difference what people call God.
God teaches that what Adam taught his children is no different from what Muslims practice as a religion and the differences between nations when it comes to practice of religion, and how they describe God almighty are due to man made efforts/errors and an introduction of corruption to the one religion mankind always had. Quran corrects these wrong introductions into the faiths of the past and steers people back to what should be the correct view of God.
That is why the word Islam means "Submission to the will of God" and has no association with race and ethnicity. Whereas many other faiths have race or a person attached to them due to corruption.
Moses was not a Jew but they tell us he was a Jew. Jesus was a Jew but Euros laid claim to him and painted him as White. You get my point.
Quran does not teach Allah is a new God. It is simple logic that God who is one can not be different to different groups of human beings. If God is one, and he created mankind, he sent information to inform them about him, then consistency is there you would agree.
Final post. I edited enough.
You've made around about 15 separate claims alot of these claims of which you've derived from the Mushaf. None of which are backed up by evidence.
