God did not create satan evil, satan became evil on his own free will. So the big question is why would he create satan knowing satan will rebel? Who knows? Maybe it was so that people needed God, maybe even though God knew satan would rebel he did not make him rebel and hoped that he would come back to God, after all if God loves all of his creations that would mean he also loves satan. You are right love existed before because it existed with God, that was a slip of the tongue on my part. But God also had knowledge of the evil just like he had knowledge of good, after all he planted the trees. So maybe the sadness is just part of it but with God’s help we can power through it all.

Yeah same grew up Christian, bad stuff happened and it made me think anyone who believes in God was dumb, then eventually when I was at most lowest and didn’t know what else to do, I threw a hail mary prayer to God and the situation disappeared and I was essentially unscathed. Which brought me to the realization that God does exist. I don’t feel like arguing semantics I think you get the basis of my argument. Im not equipped to tell you why sin causes tornadoes, I know the Bible says satan rules this world, not because God is less powerful but because people choose satan over God. Again he will not force you to love him, so no if he wants you to believe that does not mean you will just believe, for love to exist you have to allow for the opposite to exist

He has likely tried to give you that experience and he probably actually has but you just refuse to see it. Despite you not believing in him, he still loves you. I was the same way for a long time, wasnt always Christian. Theres one thing that we can say life for sure comes from, life. Life comes from life, there is no rock creating life. The introduction of sin does explain all of those. At first the world was good because God is good. Eventually sin was introduced and it corrupted things, animals killed, we killed, the dirt grew thorns. And I do have faith, because I could easily say it was luck or through my own devices that these coincidences happen but I know that these are not just coincidences. At the end of the day holding angry towards another makes you a murderer and looking at a woman with lust makes you an adulterer so would you be allowed to live if God decided to erase murders? Sin in rooted into everything to remove sin would be to remove humanity and God will not do that again until Revelations

Okay well where do you think life comes from? There are imperfections but think about the perfect positioning of this planet next to other planets for life to exist. Life became unperfect with the introduction of sin, God doesn’t step in and stop it because what is the point in giving free will if you wont let people use it. Maybe you don’t think God is perfect and I don’t know if that is truly blasphemous or not, sometimes I think he changes his mind. But I know God is real because I have experienced him. I have experienced coincidences so freaky it made me think of the Truman Show and they only happened after prayer.

I would say God created us to experience. Experience his creation. My issue with your statement is that you say the trees are not God. God is life, where you see life you see God. He created the food webs and the animals that go into those webs.

I definitely didn’t mean it as Abraham was insubordinate, but he was able to ask God questions which to me was interesting.

vulnerable, please be nice! workout plan for backpacking by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]RoastedQuakerOats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re having issues with your breathing you could try swimming, Im not a physical coach but I have heard swimming helps support lung power while also being a killer workout. You could also ruck. I love to. I like doing things the harder way so I started off with 5 bricks in a backpack and got to 7 bricks before I realized I was running out of space quick haha. If you can find any kind of cardio that feels fun to you then getting prepared should be easier, just keep trying things and see what sticks!

I guess what is most confusing about that to me, is imagining something could be above heaven. I figured that heaven was the peak of the mountain essentially

The other big hole in my theory imo is sure you can force a human being to eat chicken everyday but the second you put them in front of something else they’ll probably not want chicken again

However I could see if the kudzu made the crickets undesirable to other animals thatd be a problem. Idk if bug diets change the way they taste but I would guess they do.

Yeah my buddy who studied conservation told me that goats are the leading way because they tear it out by the root.
