Ok I am bored again so I am gonna write about my fav subject God.

Some people say that since Evil is created by Satan and Satan is created by God, God is actually responsible for evil.

A simple analogy. If we were to put a toddler in a kitchen and the kitchen has three sharp knives. Suppose the toddler plays around and accidentally cuts himself with the knives, surely any adult would blame us for being ignorant by putting the toddler in the kitchen all by himself inspite of knowing the dangers the knives can impose. Of course one would argue that it is human error but lets say knives did not exist in the first place(assume that knives serves no purpose except killing), the accident would not have happened in the first place. Similarly, if God did not create evil feelings and emotions in humans, we would not be killing each other in the name of hate. My theory is simple, prevention is better than cure, if we do not impose the root factor in the beginning, nothing would take place. Without evil feelings like jealousy and hate in the first place, there would be zero percent success rate for many evil actions.

Its like a choice between putting a child through two schools. Say school one is a prestigious school with highly educated students and school two is a substandard school with students from dubious backgrounds, one would surely put a child in school one due to the fact that is has lesser risk of the child learning bad values from the other students. We cannot totally eliminate the possiblity of the child learning bad things in school one but for argument sake, we all know that the chances are substantially lower.

Therefore, my arugment is that since God has created hate, jealousy, greed in humans, the premium risk of us humans commiting sins is therefore gonna be there as compared to a world if he did not create any of these in the first place. Its like exposing the child to vulgar words, of course the child would pick them up as compared if we live in a world where everyone does not even swear at all. I know Christian pple out there would say that we as humans can make the choice between good and evil and that by doing the wrong thing it is a reflection of our morals but hey do think about my analogy of putting a kid in the school. If u guys got the balls, put ur kid in school two and teach him ur sets of values and see how he grows up, that is of course if one were to dare try it out in the first place if given a choice.
