A little question to christians: [Spirituality & Religion]

If god was the evil one and the devil was the good one, how would you know?

Why would you ask such a stupid question? The premise makes no sense. It's a surrealistic question. Everyone knows the difference between right and wrong. Even without the benefit of dogma our bodies react when we lie or steal. This is one of the dumbest questions I've seen here!

@puck61 why is it a stupid question?
Because it's not contextually sound. It's like something Lewis Carroll would've written. I answered your question in my comment also.

@puck61 you didn't answer anything. You are assuming that "God" is good. We have only ever been told one side of that story. History is written by the winners.
@zerofuks2give Your being ridiculous and foolish. There's no point in engaging someone who is being silly.

@puck61 so instead of actually having an argument you just go straight to name calling? We only have God's side of the story, Satan doesn't have a Bible to tell his side of the story. In the Old Testament God slaughtered people by the thousands possibly even millions, gave laws to justify rape, openly admitted to being jealous, condoned slavery and many other things that are now considered "immoral". I think it's a very important question to ponder.

Woops! Stumbled right out of the gate i'm afraid! No worries, i've had more time to think this through than you.
Now let's move past your knee-jerk reaction and actually work through this.

Tell me, if god gave us our sense of right and wrong then how would you know if he had deceived you? How would you know if what he called righteous was in fact a good thing? If he's calling the shots, how do you know he's actually the good guy?
