Why did God make such a pathetic world?

   A Troubled Womanposted 12 years ago

   Religion says that God is a benevolent entity. If he is really a loving and caring character, then why did he make a world which is infested with ugliness, poverty, darkness and injustice, not to mention the wars and premature deaths of the most upright of his followers?

      The world (whether you believe it was made by a god or just an inevitable consequence) is a beautiful place full of wonder,  shame about the people that infest it.

               Get educated. The world is just a set of atoms that came into a random sequence, out of an inflation that occurred 13 billion years ago. There is no wonder, except in your head. If you don't know about these things, then go to your local library, and cure your rustic ignorance.

                  Maybe your belief in random chance of the creation is the reason you are such a troubled woman. A hope could cure your ills. If everything is random chance then there is no hope in a better place or justice. I would be troubled too. You can tell by my username what side I fall on. I have hope and am not troubled at all.

      this world wasn't created by a god i'm sorry to say. the reason you see so many bad things is perhaps because you have closed your eyes to the good things. there are so many amazing people out there that i can't see why people think this planet is such a bad place.

         I believe this world was created by God, you need not be sorry for your beliefs. I see bad and good things in this world. If humans had not rejected God the world would be perfect like the Creator God intended. There are amazing people out there, and this planet is not a bad place. It is not perfect but it is the only one we have.

   God didn't do that. You are following in the footsteps of the person that created all the problems you and all of humanity have today, and you are blaming it on God like he does and causing more problems.
   
   Apples falling from trees yes?
   
   God on the other hand, gave you life and yet.... look at the ungratefulness. Like a child slapping the life giving food from the parents hands while being fed... tisk tisk what a shame.

                     There is not a person who has experienced this kind of creepy christian approach who does not recognise it for what it is, and the dull intellect behind it.

   If There is a god, and it did create this world. It obviously wasn't anything like it is today. According to the bible, (Whichever religion you go by) there were only two people on the earth when it was first created. So how could two people possibly be thought of as pathetic? I imagine it was once a lush beautiful place, that has been ruined many times over my mans growing greed.
   
   God didn't make the world pathetic, it just got there real quick.
