Why I'm Still a Christian

I don't think "he" made anything. My intention was to point out the absurdity of the common Christian view with a satirical post. But, it appears I've missed my mark. I do agree with you about this place not being created with us in mind at the center of it all. This is a pretty inhospitable universe for the most part and it's been kicking our ass for the short time we've been wandering around here. That's good you don't think that way. Though, it's puzzling to me that you don't recignize the crippling implications this idea has on your beliefs. How exactly do you square this up with the bible?
The bible is the source of your belief, right? I'm sorry if you're not a follower of Christ, I just had it in my head that you were for some reason.

I am a christian and I follow the bible, but it doesn't say that God made the whole universe just for us. He did create the earth for us and gave us dominion over all the other creatures here. Since God is eternal, who knows how many things he's been into throughout eternity. What crippling implications does it have for the christian faith?

I see. Just the earth then? So, you live on this planet, you see how this place is an inherent death trap for us (radiation, viruses/disease, tidal disasters, earth quakes, shortage of natural resources etc.), and you dont see any problematic implications this for a belief that this place is the handy work of a loving and omniscient deity with us in mind at the focal point?
