Someone blamed God for all the evil in the world
Astounded by this inversion
I retorted
Outside of this universe
Of God's great creation
Are voids and places of evil beyond imagination
Then we shall worship it
He said
Astounded by the shocking words
I asserted
It is much of humanity that is evil!
Then God should sort it all out
Was his reply
A theological dilemma
In a world of free will
It is down to us to sort out the world we pollute and war and abuse and rob and kill
God does not micromanage the world
Because free will would cease to be
To do so would see The future, our future, endlessly altered by God
And the laws of nature and the universe
that
Bring us weather of beauty or extremes... as we mess with balances implicit
increasing extremes
We don't live in a world of exactly the perfect amount of sunshine and rain at 25C gentle breezes and perfect terrains
The world and universe is dynamic
Growing changing
Stuff happens, nature constantly rebalances and great and disturbing things happen, terrible events, beautiful events, great events are all part of the implicit forces and balances that enable life to be as we see it yet that which we disturb by vast detriments of deforestation, pollution, emissions, overpopulation, greed, and wars
In free will we prove our selves worthy or unworthy
Good or evil
To be raised higher or discarded
To see humanity as virtuous and good
Is a great folly
Humanity serves much that is bad, wrong or pure evil and is mostly self serving
Just as many serve the righteous God of compassion, love and beautiful creation.....
