The world is failing

Do we agree?

However, some say the world will fail, then rise steadily out out the rubbage, think they are okay, and then Bam! The end will come and those in God's favor will live forever in paradise.
I hate this. I like my life. I don't like perfection. It's good for humans to be flawed, even if they weren't first made flawed. Life goes on. And I love every minute of it.

now going off of wat you said, we werent flawed at first, which i do beleive youre talking bout adam and eve,
they were flawed,
not only flawed, but also gullible,
according to the bible the serpent convinced them to eat of the tree, tht means they probably thot of eating it before, since he convinced them so easily, tht also means they were flawed before, and also in the bible it says when god created all things it was "good" but not perfect, therefore proving tht maybe god made a mistake or he purposely put mistakes in us

apparently. idk what i'm talking about.


but i don't give a FUCK if the world ends, i'm happy with being a floating speck for the remainder of the universe. mkay?

Tori... Just stop. You don't know what you're talking about.

Adam and Eve weren't perfect, they were human. God didn't want to create robots, he wanted compaions to share in his glorious-ness. So he gave us the gift of choice. He didn't want us to worship us because we HAD to, he wanted us to do it because we WANTED to. See?

The snake, if you've read the whole story, isn't really a snake at all. (idk how much of this you already know) He's lucifer, a fallen Angel. He wanted to be God, and God saw this and told him to cut it out. But when he didn't, God banished him from heaven. He's still trying to take over, and he'll keep trying until the day the Lord comes again. So he tricked Eve into eating the forbidden fruit, who told Adam to do the same thing. Since God can't be with unholy people, he had to banish them from the garden. But he still took care of them, because he loved them. Just like he loves us.

Darren's pretty much right, I think.

Genesis 1:26 - 31
Then God said, "Let us make people in our image, to be like ourselves. They will be masters over all life - the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the livestock, wild animals, and small animals.
So God created people in his own image; God patterned them after himself; male and female he created them.
God blessed them and told them, "Multiply and fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters over the fish and birds and all the animals."
And God said, "Look! I have given you the seed-bearing plants throughout the earth and all the fruit trees for your food.
And I have given all the grasses and other green plants to the animals and birds for their food." And so it was.
Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in ever way. This all happened on the sixth day.

[See, we were made perfect.]


Genesis 2:9
And the Lord God planted all sorts of trees in the garden - beautiful trees that produced delicious fruit. At the center of the garden he placed teh tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good an evil.

[And since the tree held the knowledge of good and evil, it implies that we didn't know the difference.]


Genesis 3:3 - 4
"It's only the fruit from the tree at the center of the garden that we are not allowed to eat. God says we must not eat it or even touch it, or we will die."
"You won't die!" The serpent hissed. "God knows that your eyes will be opened when you eat it. You will become just like God, knowing everything, both good and evil."

[And then we ate the tree and that was when we realized good and evil, and when we started to sin on our own.]

And when God saw that it was good, that was Genesis 1:4, on the first day; 1:12, on the third day; 1:18, on the fourth day; 1:21, on the fifth day; and 1:25, on the sixth day before people were made. After the people were made, then he saw that everything was excellent in 1:31.

goddamnit.
can't i have my own little twisted reality?
or do i have to be wrong?
and i'm okay with being a floating speck.

well, again, "god saw it was EXCELLENT, in every way" no matter how we spin it, how we can put lables onto it, we werent perfect."
oh and also, with the eating of the fruit came knowledge of good and evil, not the action, but the knowledge, tht means tht we prolly were doing wrong, we just didnt know it, therefore, since we were oblivious to tht knowledge, we couldnt know wat we were doing was wrong, therefore we were holy for the purpose tht we didnt know.

Pretty much yeah.

Wow.

i had to read that twice, but good point.
