We don't know how or when because mere humans can't fully understand God, and can't see the whole universe - past, present, and future, but our beliefs are that God is goodness and love.
Which is why I always keep urging to dive into recent primate and dog research. It should be humbling to everyone considering humanity the superior species and it's humbling to me, who doesn't hold that believe.
But, alas, noone ever seems to do that.
What have you learned in your research?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
