Max Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 As I'm spending another day confined to my couch with the flu, I want to know the IDiots explain this as part of a perfectly designed universe. Does the puking somehow serve some purpose? How about tha backache? I know - the loss of appetite is leaving more food for the rest of the planet! Being sick is such a huge waste of time!

nick5 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 When the first couple ate the forbidden apple, they disobeyed god and allowed sin, disease and death to enter the world. So, you see, it was not god's fault at all. Man is to blame for the existence of disease and evil, not god. ...what? *runs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 Oh, I hadn't caught that extra nuance. The ID universe is a combination of thoughtful design and spite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait though, where were they ever able to find a spotless lamb to satiate God's enormous appetite for burning flesh if the poor lambs were all corrupted by original sin to? And I thought that story somehow made logical sense... Just gotta have faith I guess, because we all know that when you know, you just, well, you know man. Ya know?

mwc Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Creation...perfection...original sin...bad stuff... Flood...perfection...more sin...bad stuff... Baby god...perfection...more sin...bad stuff... Nope. Nothing has worked yet. But maybe... Baby god (take two)...perfection...??? Now the pattern shows more sin and bad stuff but I've been told otherwise. Keep your fingers crossed. mwc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep your fingers crossed. mwc Sometimes I wonder... you could say that Judaism had Yeshua Ben-Yoseph, Hinduism had Siddharta Gautama, perhaps Islam will yield a similar figure?
