No. No that is literally not how software engineers operate. At all. Ever. Most engineers think the tests will pass with flying colors. The tests are ran anyways.
So much BS is just people making assumptions about a being much, much smarter than themselves… Maybe God just wants to turn the wheel on the grinder, even though it would take an Act of God to ruin the result…
There is quite literally NO valid reason for God to NOT turn the wheel on the grinder… Saying so does not back up any specific religion, just pokes holes in any fallacious assertion that God has no reason to turn the wheel. He doesn’t need one that makes sense to you. Period.
All God needs to do for free will and “all knowing” to be true is for God to decide NOT to intervene in personal decisions. Yes, that blows Christians and other morons who pray to God out of the water, but it does not invalidate the concept of God at face value to not line up with idiots’ cliff notes of who God is.
Do you not write unit tests? Do you only test in production? I’m not referencing the obvious manual tests, but the fact that things are tested constantly even when they are working. Unless you’re doing something very wrong.
If things always worked, we wouldn’t need tests. When something inevitably breaks because of some totally off the wall reason, we have tests to figure out why the code didn’t work (or fail) in the way we wanted it to. I mostly work in game dev and HCI, and it feels like half the code I write for that owes its stability to hopes and dreams.
Exactly, and religion says we have free will, which supposedly removes us by choice from the control of “God”. How can you fail to see how that’s pretty damn close to a software engineer going, “fuck it, let’s see what these little shits can actually do.”? You could look at the variables going in to every separate character and know what they’d do 100% of the time. You’d almost certainly have an idea what the whole thing would lead to.
… and here’s the kicker: you’re not God! Any religious person readily dismisses problems with technically disproving allegory with what ultimately comes down to, “God is smarter than you”. Since allegory is the only way to compare things that don’t actually exist, you have to observe how each separate piece has a nugget of truth in it, and believers latch on to it, even if it’s the mere appearance of truth.
“God works in mysterious ways” is very, very much an actual thought-terminating cliche for the religious. You and me see how the allegory doesn’t hold up. They choose not to or sometimes literally cannot suss through all of the fluff.
I like how you claim that a software engineer “thinking” their code will work is comparable to a literal “all knowing god” as if they are remotely similar.
Are they the same, as in they are similarly fallible, or is an “all knowing god” more than the average software engineer? Pick one. You can’t have both.
God doesn’t make sense as described in the Bible either, so no it is not wrong to describe him in a way that “isn’t how he works”
You don’t know either. He doesn’t work. At all. The Christian God is not real, and the fact you think you know better how “He” works instead of engaging with the idea I’m attempting to present is frankly pathetic. You’re defending your own emotions, not making any logical defense of a God that LITERALLY CANNOT exist.
Yes, and I am pointing out how you’re not debating anything, because God’s not real, dumbass. There are dozens of reasons God as described in the bible doesn’t ACTUALLY make sense.
That’s the main point I was working from, yet your dumb ass comes in here thinking, “but that still doesn’t make sense tho” is making ANY point.
I STARTED by saying God doesn’t mzke sense but the PIECES can in SPECIFIC ways.
You pointing out that God is nonsensical still is literally a non-point.
I don’t use autocorrect because it’s worse than normal typos. The fact you keep trying to bring it back to some personal failing of mine instead of trying to understand the point is fucking pathetic. Do better. “Ohh, you’re being mean, that means you didn’t make a point!” … and you have the gall to call me the child. Fucking. Pathetic. Adults can take an insult without falling apart.

Software engineer here. I run tests to work out where my code fails and to deduce why that is.

I’m attacking your argument, not you, you child.

It’s so obvious that you’re way too emotionally involved for you to type correctly, let alone think or communicate clearly.
You’re being an asshole for no reason, on top of being wrong in so many ways.
Go outside and get some real human interaction.

Ah I get it now. You’re just a piece of shit.
