Instead Of Asking Why God Allows Evil To Exist, Ask Why Humans Allow Evil To Exist.

Instead of asking why God allows evil to exist, ask why humans allow evil to exist.

If they do not know what is evil or are powerless to stop evil, are they in any place to comment on God's judgment since humans are not better placed in any way to resolve the matter? That would be like a layman making comments about a mechanic's job in regard to a car.

God told Adam and Eve not to eat the one fruit in the Garden of Eden and in exchange, God gave them both all the other fruits in the garden to eat. Adam and Eve listened to the serpent and disobeyed God's explicit instructions, how is that God's fault?

In any case, why couldn't God put what he wanted in HIS Garden? We can't blame the woman who gets raped even if she wore inappropriate attire, how can we blame God when Adam and Eve committed the wrong in the first place?

Furthermore, it is a misconception that God is a loving God. He is a merciful God, in which case love is a consequence of God's mercy because one must love something to spare it punishment when it is possible to do so.

God allows evil out of mercy because no one is good. To destroy evil, God must destroy everyone. Therefore God holds his wrath as an act of mercy.

Why does God allow evil to exist?

Jesus presented another parable to them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away. But when the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the tares became evident also. The slaves of the landowner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’

And he said to them, ‘An enemy has done this!’ The slaves said to him, ‘Do you want us, then, to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No; for while you are gathering up the tares, you may uproot the wheat with them. Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭13‬:‭24‬-‭30‬ ‭NASB

“But God is perfect and all powerful, why can’t He get rid of the evil without harming the good?”

Because the evil isn’t just “bad people” among us. The evil is in our own sinful hearts. To get rid of evil, He would have to get rid of us too.

In our Baptism, in Confession and Absolution, in hearing the Gospel, and in Holy Communion, we receive the forgiveness of our sins won for us by Christ on the cross. But while we live here on earth, we still live with our sinfulness - though we are no longer slaves to it (Romans 6).

When Christ returns on the Last Day, then we can finally be resurrected in our glorified, perfected bodies and live with Him without sin and all its consequences. That will happen - just in God’s timing, not ours.

It may feel like we are waiting a long time and suffering under the weight of evil in this world, but when we are in the world without end, this life will seem like a distant memory, a blip compared to eternity.

Almighty, everlasting God, Your Son has assured forgiveness of sins and deliverance from eternal death. Strengthen us by Your Holy Spirit that our faith in Christ may increase daily and that we may hold fast to the hope that on the Last Day we shall be raised in glory to eternal life; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

“They’ll look high and they’ll look low They’ll look everywhere we go But when the sinners find us, we won’t hide They’ll come loud and they’ll come fast We shoot first and we can last Keep your rifle by your side Singin’, “Oh Lord, this earth was made for us” Singin’, “Oh Lord, this sinful life just ain’t enough” So we’ll take a stand ‘Cause we must protect our land Keep your rifle by your side They’ll come day and they’ll come night They’ll have our children in their sights But if they don’t have faith, their eyes are blind They can scream and they can shout But they can never smoke us out Keep your rifle by your side”

Pence, a backstabber? He was doing his job as Vice President when he was rudely interrupted on Jan 6. Trump will be held accountable as well as others for their role in the Insurrection. When that day comes, there will be a righteous hanging I hope.

Cardin's Nights Out

Cardin never really stayed out and made it a point to return to Beacon after a late night in the city. However, whenever Cardin fails to return to Beacon, his teammates notice that it usually happens after CRDL gets into a fight with a girl in Beacon.

Coco Adel: Coco knocks him out with her purse after she overhears Cardin's racist remarks about Velvet to his teammates. Cardin then wakes up unable to feel his arms and legs, cozy and comfortable in a luxuriously soft bed, and watching Coco in her underwear fixing her makeup before a tall standing mirror.

Nora Valkyrie: Cardin pushes Jaune into a locker. Nora punts Cardin into oblivion with her hammer. Cardin then wakes up to the smell of burnt milk and finds himself in a kitchen destroyed by Nora's attempt at breakfast. However, since Nora was wearing nothing but his shirt from the night before, Cardin can't bring himself to say anything about the damage.

Pyrrha Nikos: Cardin had not done anything to anyone that day, but that did not stop Pyrrha from dominating his team in another 4 v 1 fight. Cardin wakes up earlier than Pyrrha this time, and after his first cup of coffee, he spends the morning just staring at Pyrrha while she sleeps. Stretched out across the bed, red hair sticking to her face in damp strands across her unlined brow, and her sharp-edged, muscular body, like Aphrodite in Botticelli's 'Birth of Venus', covered only with more of Pyrrha's hair and the shameless contentment of satisfaction Jaune could not provide.

Cardin then leaves Pyrrha to sleep it off because even he finds the cuckolding weird as all hell.r

"We'll form a union, and get the fair and equitable treatment we deserve!"

"Then we will get corrupt, and checkless, then the japanese will eat us alive!"

So one argument I have heard when talking about unions is the idea that unions are only needed by people who do manual labor, there are 2 things wrong with this statement

A large amount of blue collar workers in the US like Coal Miners, Factory Workers, and Lumber workers are not unionized, this is because of corporate greed destroying the strong unions in these sectors in the 60s and that makes the lives of these people so much worse because they often work in some of the lowest paying fields in the us.

Any workers can be mistreated by management. People like Baristas work in poor conditions for their mental health and are frequently paid low wages for their work. Unions are there to insure workers get compensation for their work in all fields not just ones that are dangerous.

Condoms, let's see them

Dove Bronzewing: CONDOMS. Let's see them!

Pyrrha Nikos: W-What do you mean?

Dove: Let me see the condoms you're about to put on Cardin's wiener!

Dove snatched the condom Pyrrha handed over hesitantly and began to scrutinize the innocent package with the eyes of a craftsman. A subtle smirk of victory sharpened the raptor's cunning that featured heavily on Dove's face before Dove opened and poured his beer into the condom.

The triumph on Dove's face was matched by the look of revulsion and horror on Cardin's as beer leaked out through the multitude of holes that Pyrrha had pierced through the condom. At the same time, Pyrrha pounced on Cardin and begged the bewildered Huntsman to put a baby in her belly because Jaune couldn't satisfy her.l

Dove: Zip it, psycho! Go and be happy with Jaune's micro-penis! Get out!

Dove's voice rose to a high-pitched squeal as Pyrrha ran, humiliated, from CRDL's dorm.

Dove: GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!
