How come God made people with AS?

Post Reply New Topic

How come he lets people starve to death, lets evil prosper, or lets genocide go on all over the world? I have my theories on that but I don't want to put a damper on the next person's beliefs.

AS is probably triggered by a mutation, but there are maybe different forms of AS as well, some caused by evolution, and some caused by accidents. But I do not believe that it is a coinscidence, given the expansion of electronic power fields during the last 110 years, that we see mutations appear. Environmental changes often triggers genetic changes. For example, in Ruhr in western Germany, which is a very polluted area, it has been quite typical for children with fur to be born.

Again, I can only give an outline of my own thinking on this.

Does God punish millions of people because two people decided to disobey him? Those who take the Bible very literally would say yes, and they are entitled to their view of faith, but that is not my view at all, nor is it the view of many other Christians.

Imagine a timeline of let's say 100 billion years. What fraction of that is our lifetime - say 70 years? Of those 70 years, say people have on average an appalling time for maybe only a part of it, fpr convenience say 10 years. What fraction/percentage of that 100 billion years is 10 years?

If my maths is any good, that means you get to suffer for one hundred thousandth of your life, and you get the other 99,999,990 years of peace to make up for it.

Why the suffering? Perhaps...just perhaps to see what we make of it. And to give us some perspective on what suffering actually is. Otherwise if everything was perfect always, how would you know it was? We can only see things by comparison to something else. With nothing else to compare it to, how would we? With nothing to test our views of things, how would God know if we could make good decisions?

I'm not saying I'm right, but this is how I reason that God has a perfectly valid way of doing things. It might seem unfair at the time, but even whilst I've had some appalling years, God's still been there to give me the strength to get through the bad times. I can't find a reason to complain about him at all.

As I said beforehand, what would be the deal if there was no God? 70 years including the years that are awful, then you die.

Is that a better deal?
If so, how?

I think God provides some people with challenges that He feels they can overcome or come to terms with.

God is a blind excuse for troubles and a pathetic explaination for the unknown. How about instead of complaining, you just play the cards you've been dealt? Live.

God is real mitch and he isn't blind.

I'm sure, many people believe that God is real, I'm sure many don't. Doesn't mean either of the groups are right or wrong, it's just opinion.
Also, how do we know?

God intentionally screws with people to get them to rebel and come up with new and good ideas.

When people are dumb enough to not to realize they're being screwed with, God gets his laughs. At least that's what I'd do if I was God.
