(October 19, 2013 at 8:03 am)Dolphins are the best Wrote: God is omniscient. When he created the universe, he saw the sufferings which humans would endure as a result of the sin of those original humans. He heard the screams of the damned. Surely he would have known that it would have been better for those humans to never have been born (in fact, the Bible says this very thing), and surely this all-compassionate deity would have foregone the creation of a universe destined to imperfection in which many of the humans were doomed to eternal suffering. A perfectly compassionate being who creates beings which he knows are doomed to suffer is impossible.I'm quite happy in this life and also looking forward to the next. I'm very happy that God chose to create.
Your position that God shouldn't have created is an argument that God should have punished those who would love him, and rewarded those who would hate him or want nothing to do with him.
Doesn't make much sense.
