Reuben,

Be VERY careful about acusing other people of "BS philosophies".  Consdier 
your own statement:

.................To us was born His Son, Jesus Christ who shed His blood for 
our sins (sins such as the ignorance displayed in the 'ccml Does Evil Exist 
................

Many, including me, would regard THIS to be "BS philosophy" and here's why:

IF God is omnipotent then WHY was Jesus' blood sacrifice required to assuage 
mankind's sins?  Why couldn't God just simply forgive us?

Alternatively - if a blood sacrifice WAS required to cleanse our sins, then 
either God is not omnipotent or he's a blood thirsty tyrant.

As I say, be very careful about BS philosophies.
