OK, I can give you this.
God may have done all this.
But is He aware of His creation?
‘But He loves us!
Otherwise why make us in the first place?!?’
What if it was us who had come up with this notion?
The way I see it, we may very well be an unintended consequence of His activity. So unintended that He isn’t even aware of our existence…
‘But He knows everything…‘
That’s what we think… about Him. And about the relation between Him and His Creation.
Take us for example.
Do we know everything? About our body. About what’s going on inside us.
‘No, of course we don’t!’
Think again.
For an outside observer – specially one that lives significantly less than we do – our bodies are ‘perfection in motion’. They work ‘perfectly’. As if minutely controlled by somebody who perfectly knows what they’re doing. Right?
We know this isn’t the case… because we are the ones who ignore what’s going on inside our bodies…
Well, ignore is too strong. Not fully aware, at least for as long as things go on in an acceptable manner, would be a more accurate description.
Same might be happening with God.
And this is a far more sensible explanation for what’s going on. We’re the ones responsible for our behavior, not an inscrutable God.
Who, despite being our Creator, allows us to defile His Creation.
