I'm in my twenties now and so unexpected changes due to puberty is no rational explanation. In any case, this is irrelevant. The question is this:
What sort of divine creator would be intelligent enough to create something as magnificent as the human form whilst simultaneously being so incompetent as to make said form susceptible to an incurable mental ailment which randomly decides to give you whiplash every so often?
Hi Rjh, sorry to hear that. My dad was diagnosed with MS in his late 50s (he is 68 now and severly disabled ) and my sister was born with epilepsy and mild learning difficulties, so I have wondered this myself. What can I say? It seems impossible to reconcile sickness etc to a loving creator. I haven't thrown the baby out with the bath water just yet though.
