  • some higher thing

    "Only in the dictionary does success come before work" - unknown author

     
    It is interesting that the Creator(God) has not just wiped out all things human already.
    Humans bring destruction to everything they touch. Why does the all-powerful allow them to remain?
    There must be a purpose.
    Why allow us to remain unless there is something we must achieve?
    something to be achieved... a higher thing to be reached for.

    Why not remove humans from the earth and let the animals have it to live in balance and harmony.
    What would happen without humans? ...
    are humans the top of the food chain, and without them certain animal populations would grow out of control?
    Or would disease take them? Certainly God has designed it so that natural attrition would take them
    through disease...
    Are humans the only biological creatures that kill one another? ... a necessary way to control our own
    populations since we are the top of the food chain?

    Yet it seems unlikely, for surely, if we did not interfere with God's design, natural attrition and disease
    would take us as well.

    Having both the knowledge and ability to save lives,  yet we seem propelled to take them...
    even the lives of other humans.
    Other species may fight among themselves, but do they kill one another? ... maybe some, and
    maybe on occasion... but most certainly they do not kill one another deliberately with purpose,
    and in large numbers, as humans do.
    So why does God allow humans to continue in existence?
    There must be some purpose...
    some higher thing to be reached for.

  • maybe like some animals we kill because we're territorial - I don't know for sure but I do think there is some higher thing to be reached, I know I'm continually reaching

  • God created man to rule but many rule without Him in their hearts and it gets all mixed up. :-( The gator place is really a nice place to visit. Animals in the wild are a lot worse off because it is eat or be eaten a lot of times not to mention diseases left untreated. One thing about alligators? They are really tough skinned. I imagine a pony is more sensitive to being sat on than an alligator. The park was fun and they do a lot of good things plus rescue rouge alligators from urban areas. :-) I hope you can visit someday. :D

  • Because He loves us and desires a relationship with us ~ love above all loves ~

  • Free choice was a very risky characteristic to grant humans. It is ugly out there as you point out.
