thanks, god.

RE: thanks, god.
Hehe! You do this well Smile

I don't think God causes disasters. If God created this existence then he's responsible for the natural laws that sustain it and play out throughout time. In this scenario God is ambivalent. I don't think it comes into God's realm of activity to interfere in the natural order of things, and especially not to interfere in human mortality.

The Bible establishes humans as having a capacity of God likeness, unlike anything else in existence. An amazing assertion but one which still seems to be viable. This is what the Bible addresses and takes steps to understand, this theoretical aspect of human nature. Nothing physical/ material. Entirely spiritual.

This is gonna sound a bit preachy so apologies in advance. I'm trying to establish the 'good' bit Smile In my experience God is love. He beams love down on us like the Sun only constantly. We all put up shades of varying degree. People who manage to remove the shades momentarily and or to some degree have good lives. The rest of us wander around in miserable darkness. Knowledge of the/ an actual God isn't a prerequisite for this to the best of my understanding.

Sorry I didn't answer your direct question. I hope you see how I think the question would have to be theoretical and outside of my direct understanding of God.
