Christian Self-censorship of Dirty Words

So, there are things that exist that God didn't create?

And how do you square that with the neuroscience that shows our ability to control our impulses and make proper decisions is dependent upon the structure of our frontal lobe? Every one of us is just a brain injury away from being unable to properly moderate our behavior. How is it fair for God to judge people on their decisions if he made it easier for some to control themselves than for others?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
