BY STARBOY...So are you saying that the Andromeda galaxy has sinned?

MERLIN SEZ...In Quantum theory a measurement requires an observer. We are the observers. Every action we do effects everything in our future and thus the universes future. This would include the fate of each atom, each electron, each muon each quark etc in M-31/NGC206.

BY STARBOY...I find it interesting that sin is defined as a destructive emotion. So was God sinning when he destroyed the earth? And if not, why not?
Merlin...God didn't destroy the earth mans actions did. This creation is special and I don't think even God considers us and our universe(s) expendable. In my opinion God has no emotions as we know them. The universe was about to be destroyed by mans hand and sin. In open theism God isn't perfect the way that we perceive perfection. So mans actions was the cause and the effect was his near genocide.

BY STARBOY...But according to Christians and their stories the largest evil of all would have to be God. All other supernatural constructs pale in comparison to the claimed destruction that is also claimed to have been performed by god.
Merlin...I think it was Einstein who said something to the effect .... I don't doubt that God created the universe to run by physical processes and natural law, I do doubt If he had a choice (to make the universe run on "natural law"). God allows this universe to run on natural law and doesn't normally intervene. However I believe this deity does intervene when we are about to commit total universal suicide The ultimate sin would be the destruction of the universe VIA all sentient observers becoming purely sinful.
