Quote:I never said that is good for people to ............endure horrible experiences..........You asked if I had a better option if I was god, and I explained why it was better to avoid any suffering. And you've rejected the idea based on two premises:
I instead said that there are universal laws that we can not change.
1- that the laws of the universe are immutable, which does not apply to the hypothetical that YOU ASKED FOR.
2- that suffering is a way for people to learn to behave better, even though the implication you are making is at odds with your OP.
You are putting forth the idea that a reactive system of ensuring happiness is better than a reactive system of ensuring happiness. No, it isn't. It's the same, except that it means that a force or being or 'system' that is in place to ensure 'balance' doesn't work any better than NOT WORKING AT ALL.
And you don't seem to understand why that's stupid.
You forgot to mention something very important that I said and that is that there would not be any scope
for God to create anything if what God create would be the same as God.
What would be the point then?
God scope for creation is to reduce his or part of his consciousness into something small or more crude
to then having to regain his total consciousness.
This process turn his or part of his consciousness into the elements that make up the universe like space,
air, light-energy, water and matter and then slowly turn that into plants, animals, humans and back to his pure consciousness.
This is his way of expressing himself.
From here considering that he create something that is not as perfect as him is obvious that there can not be only positive and everybody would be happy.
The way back to him require that there got to be struggle in the pursuit of the regain consciousness.
This is yoga.
You of course do not believe in this way and that is ok with me.
No wonder that the negative factor is so much ingrain in the mind of so many people that fail to understand how the system works.
If everybody would be positive then life on earth would be a paradise.
