    In those quotes is not clear that God is the creator of them. It talks about the punishment that the protagonist of these books applies to people that according to him are rebelling against him.

    You have to think that the book is written in a point of view from the protagonist of the story and tries to represent how he views those who rebelled. Is obvious that he will try to justify his views.

    But in Christianity, God is Creator. The point of the passages was He didn't create Lucifer evil, that Lucifer chose, and was punished for his choice.

    Why is he evil? He only rebelled against him. Analyzing the story objectively how can you affirm he is evil.

    Yes, he chose to rebel. But, the options were living in a kind of dictatorship before the events in the Eden and the apple.

    As I understand it, he wanted to be God.

    It is very common today. Do you think it is morally wrong?
    Nope. But it helps if your heart is in it.

    Whose morals?
    Morals are just informal laws. They are both use to exists with crowds of people. If you go to Africa then you find one set of morals. If you go to San Fransisco then you see another set. If you went to Obama's Washington DC then you found a total lack of morals.

    Indeed. It is a sin. As per the moral code I follow courtesy of Jesus Christ.

    That being said, I can think of worse sins to commit. Killing being one of them. While stealing cars is bad too, it is not the equal of cohabitation because it cannot produce a child entitled to having two married parents - the bedrock of all civilizations.

    Old people cohabitation? Sure kids likely won't happen, but I don't recall a loophole being listed for age on that particular issue in any Christian text Ive ever read.
    "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

    No.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    I married without living together. It was not a disaster. However, I wish, now, that I had not married.
