How Does God Exist If There Is So Much Evil And Suffering?🎭

in philosophy •  7 years ago 

The concept of GOD is associated with "life after death"

This world is nothing but a temporary thing for human beings.. Humans are given everything and they are allowed to compete with one another in life and gain power and wealth.. The idea of evil things are for human.. it's not God who is doing evil things.. It's one human waging war against another human.

Murder, rape, theft, fraud and all other evil are being done by a human being.. Law, justice, police, court, kings, politicians, are all human beings..

God gives rain for human prosperity but when it rains a lot we have floods..but it floods because we have created damps and our drainage system gets jam because we blocked it by littering plastics..

But God is there and he will do justice to everybody.. Good souls will be granted heavens and people who did evil will go to hell..

I don't believe this is truly the case. The only thing one can be judged on is whether one can adapt to fit into the collective of heaven; whether one is teachable or not. In this, God's forgiveness is absolute. The specific things you've done in life do not matter. What matters is whether you have started walking a path of light - one of forsaking the ego/devil in favor of love and forgiveness and collective goodness.

dude.. what I said and what you said are the same thing.. I just used very simple words and you used bigger words.. conveys the same meaning 😑

There is a difference though in what is implied with the phrasing. You say "people who did evil will go to hell," which implies if you made a certain mistake in life, that's it you're going to be thrown into the fire. I was clarifying it's not what you've done that makes that distinction, it's what you will do if your life were to continue after death.

God is always willing to forgive those who are ready to repent for their sins.

And now you're repeating what I said ;)

you need to write an essay to say things which I say in a single line 😎

It always makes me sad when I am reminded that our culture makes people who think a few sentences is an essay.

Here's something you might not be considering:

Points to the random passerby of this conversation well after it's over

Do your words reach them? If you were standing at the gates of an ancient city, which is a place with a lot of different faces coming and going, do your words inspire and give insight? As a poet, I'm constantly aware of how much power words have. The right string of words in the right place, and humanity is nudged to a different future.

A butterfly is flapping its wings somewhere....

I'm sorry.

I'm not a poet, nor I was born in babylon. I'm living at a timeline where "sms" was introduced and have been adopted by the mass.. where people write "h r u" and reply "im fyn" and communication happens.

telling goodnight is annoying but telling "nyt" is considered appropriate.

And hey aren't we going off-topic?
