Why did God create the universe?

[LiberalHearted]

I ask that you look up the word perfection, because not all forms of 'perfection' are static. Perfection can and does incorporate change when needed. Otherwise Man would have never made it out of the garden.

God is perfect, even if He is subject to the same emotions He has allowed us to experience. Just because an emotion is undesirable does not make it any less perfect. True perfection has nothing to do with want desire, or contentment.

Lead us not to "look something" up. This is the beginning.

of course on the second site there is more to be read.

Bold sets your idea of god as defined in a dictionary.

No where does 'change' enter the word perfect.

2 sources.

Emotions are not perfect...read a thread on mental illnesses. Since some of the characteristics of 'mental disease' are not stoic. The DSV IV will give explanations of emotional issues...associated w/other symptoms.

Since emotions are and can be included as mental disease do we now assume god is - Narcissistic? I would say that the followers if asked w/caution not to include god would say yup.

The puter doesn't carry all of the DSM IV but. evidence, best I can find.

"Symptoms

The symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder revolve around a pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and sense of entitlement. Often individuals feel overly important and will exaggerate achievements and will accept, and often demand, praise and admiration despite worthy achievements. They may be overwhelmed with fantasies involving unlimited success, power, love, or beauty and feel that they can only be understood by others who are, like them, superior in some aspect of life."

Thereby goes your conception of god.

Narcissistic folk (met a few) will never say opps, made a mistake, unless blaming someone else for it....maybe like man? sarcasm intended.

So dictionary and the DSM IV comes forward as evidence.

No wonder xtians say Never question god.
