God created the perfect man in Adam, then he created a woman from the perfect man and she sinned. Does perfection then breed imperfection? And, as time goes on, perfect man and imperfect woman creat two children, one perfect and one imperfect. Does perfect-imperfect create perfect? The logical choice would be that the 50% imperfect would create more imperfection. So why does it create 100% perfection and 100% imperfection at the same time? So does this mean that God creates imperfections? Yes. Does this mean that he allows imperfection to exist? Yes. Does this mean that imperfection is the only measure of a man? No. If God had not created imperfection then there would be little need to create God...because everyone would worship God because that is the perfect thing to do. Imperfections are what makes Christians what they are. Christians who strive to overcome their imperfections are God's children. If everything came easy, it wouldn't matter whether there was a God or not to turn to, would it? God creates imperfection so His children can better understand what a gift He has given them. And all this coming from an atheist. :) |
