Nah, we brought those entirely on ourselves (too)
I love this logic lol.
P.S. Obviously this is not done by God.
Humans or devil
So there is no God? Or how does it work?
I don't believe in gods lol what do you want from me
What is devil then? π
I was joking bro. It's not that hard to register
Why would you joke? π±π
Nah! Itβs more like
Something good happens, something that we had a direct hand in bringing about, then, we take credit. We need not resort to primitive superstitions.
Something bad happens, especially something bad like global warming, which we know that we are the cause of, then, we take credit. We need not resort to primitive superstitions
It's God's punishment! πππ
Imagine a bunch of kids having a dinner. If they start fighting over food, or fight with the food, should the parents who provided the food be blamed? If the kids enjoy a peaceful dinner instead, wouldn't it be reasonable to thank both each other and their parents? If you're going to point to cancer or earthquakes that have seemingly random causes, then I don't have a satisfying answer for you. God as the ultimate creator isn't bound by anything, including time and space. Because of this they're infinitely beyond our imagination and we shouldn't expect to understand every reasoning behind their decisions. But just because we don't know the reason doesn't mean that a good reason doesn't exist or that god is cruel. This feeling of cruelty is similar to how we thought our parents were cruel for sending us to elementary school or how teachers were cruel for giving us home works. Since it's not easy to understand the nessesity of education and specially the nessesity of home works even sometimes as an adult.
LMAO yes, parents. It's called parenting.
What do these have in common? What point are you trying to make? What question did I ask?
Where did you take that from? The same could be said about spaghetti monster.
Lorem ipsum. Text about nothing lol.
Parents who provided the food, I meant: to be blamed as people who provided the food, not people with the parenting responsibility. You are right, maybe the chef in a restaurant was a better example. My point was that god provided everything we have, like fire. We can use fire both to cook food and cook people, it's not reasonable to blame god, the creator of fire, when someone decides to cook someone else.
Question like "when someone gets cancer, shouldn't they have the right to curse god?"
God created everything, including space and time. It doesn't make sense for god to be limited by its own creation. If spaghetti monster is the creator of everything, then that's just another name for god I guess.
I was trying to say just because we don't know the reason for god's decisions doesn't mean a good reason doesn't exist. And I made an example how when we were kids we made the same mistake of thinking there is no good reason for our parents to send us to schools, but there were, and we just couldn't understand it. I hope this cleared it out, in case you thought I was spewing gibberish
Discussing with you is waste of time. Please move on.
Ok, have a nice day πΉ
You are God, and you invent humans to be the new prime species, to use the resources of the Earth to advance out into space, ultimately to other stars.
But as you're ready to sign off on Adam, you are aware of the consequences of human kind, that their social empathy is limited, that they will war over resources, no matter how abundant, that they will bond their own in eternal servitude, and ultimately will pollute the world so severely that it won't recover for tens of thousands of years without intervention. Ultimately, they will die off having lasted only half as long as their ancestors, Homo Erectus
Do you sign off on the human race, or send it back to the drawing board to tweak its social brain.
Trolley problem:
You are GOD and have the power to reverse global warming/climate change with just a pull of this lever.
However doing so might prove your existence and you'd rather remain ambiguous in order for that "faith" thing to work.
(I'm sure someone else more witty can make this work)

The mistake was making them in his own image. Clearly he's an asshole.
