My Journal

Was reading a blog, acquainted with a Joshua Woo Sze Zeng (apparently studied at Trinity Theological College of Singapore), who has a blog in the past for nitpicking Dr. Stephen Tong's lectures and sermons (though much professional than others like 陳遠明 or 謙順, etc., mentally speaking, but nitpicking nonetheless).

Premise 1: If God exist, then he would eradicate evil.
Premise 2: Housework is evil.
Premise 3: I have to do housework, hence evil exist.
Conclusion: God does not exist.

But if God exist, clearly one of my premise is wrong. Which is it I wonder?

To which I answered:

That's easy:
Premise 1: If God exist, then he would eradicate evil.

Supposition: If and only if God eradicates evil, then evil would not exist.

Explanation: Since the non-existence of evil cannot exist without the eradication by (I reposted my comment because I used the word "of" instead of "by") God, therefore God exist.

Solved.

Secondary:

Premise 2: Housework is evil.

Response: Says who?

Solved.

I supposed he was trying to make a point that "housework is not evil".

The worst crime the evangelicals could commit is to call their vacational leisure as missionary trip.

I see missionary trip as equivalent to Paul's. Thus hardship is expected, not parties all the time in their churches. I think that hardly qualifies as persecution.

As if mere message is not enough to spread the Gospel, they have to show them how they enjoy their nonchalant lives.
