Why would a perfect being make an imperfect world?
#7
RE: Why would a perfect being make an imperfect world?
The answer to this is really quite simple. The imperfect world wasn't created by a perfect god, a conceptually perfect god was created by an imperfect world. Perfect, in most cases, is subjective. It isn't a real thing. There are no specific qualities you can assign to a being which would make it "perfect", only vague notions of what you, personally, believe would make it perfect. And even then you can't nail down most of the specifics, so the idea becomes that God is so much better than us that trying to understand her would be like an ant trying to understand us. Vagueness is an absolute necessity to avoid shattering the illusion of perfection, something which isn't actually even definable for a being, much less attainable.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately?  Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use.  Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel.  Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
