Atheism vs. God's Existence

[robvalue]

There are more fundamental problems.

If you are designing not just life, but the rules of the reality they live in, why create problems such as death, which can occur in a multitude of ways and is even inevitable? Then you have to get around these issues. Shit, it's gotta eat or it will die. And it has to breathe. And it has to drink. And it has to expel waste...

Now I have to solve all these problems with a load of botched wiring which fucks up regularly.

This is not what I would expect from a competent designer. If I wanted to make some buddies for company, I would create an environment that they would continue to "survive" in as long as I wanted them to without needing anything. I can only imagine God finds our constant struggle to cling to life amusing.

If God has obstacles to get around that he didn't put there, who did put them there? Did he make the rules, or show up one day with a bunch of rules already in place? It's the first when crediting God, and the second when excusing his incompetence/malice.
