So god needs to eat his Wheaties? He's a bumbler who can't handle his job? Does he have a combover as well?The answer is this:Maybe, but so is that. You're saying god is incompetent and can't handle all the work so he let's some fucked up things go. That's kinda dumb, isn't it?You're dumb.That's dumb.I have asked that question many times, because I have significant health problems that have held me back, thwarting my efforts to support my family.So why does god make deformed and retarded babies who live in constant pain until they die in their teens?
The answer is in the Book of Job. When Job asked God why he was allowed to suffer so much hardship when he always been a good and virtuous man, God answered him:
"Were you there when I laid down the four corners of the Earth?"
Obviously, the answer is "no" Job was not there watching God create the universe.
What God is saying is, you have no idea what it takes to create a universe and keep it running. If you could do my job, you would understand why I have to allow bad things to happen to good people. But you can't do my job, so even if I answered your question, you would not understand the answer. You are a human, with a very limited understanding of the universe. I am God, and know everything there is to know.
It is not possible to create and run a universe, even if you're God, where life is always fair to everyone.
