Why would a perfect being make an imperfect world?
#9
RE: Why would a perfect being make an imperfect world?
In my opinion, because He didn't want to micromanage it/us. He wanted to create a world where nature took its course and where intelligent beings had the free will to act in good or evil ways. The "perfect world" is Heaven.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
