It makes you wonder why god allowed the devil and demons to live when he wiped out most of humanity with the flood. There really wasn't any reason not to. Like Adam & Eve, they were presumably perfect beings who had crossed him and turned humanity away from god's glory. Mankind gets wiped out in a flood. Satan gets to make Job his personal bitch. The demons get to possess pigs and run them off of a cliff. Why does mankind almost get wiped out, but the fallen angels get to play THE BEST VIDEO GAME EVER?
Preposterously unfair.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
