Quote by: linda_mary_13  I'd like to throw out another perspective. What if the world and flesh we are born into is the evil and life(that which makes us move), is the spirit, is the good. I'd like to define evil as that without The Father. So, we are born with two realities, with The Father, or with the Earth/flesh/world. These realities exist in our thoughts. Feed the flesh or feed the spirit. Free will would have a great impact on distribution of strenghth to each side.Our objective is to return to our nature.Which ever reality we choose defines our nature. So our time on Earth reveals who we are and where we return after death. Only on Earth do we have both natures. Death is the condition of your reality.From death you move to your reality of good nature or bad nature. Where that is, is the unknown, but we do know the characteristics of those natures. Just follow the ultimate of each. They run opposite of each other but move up and down ultimately. Hey, I just realize that image is of the Cross. |
This response gives no justification of needless, non free will caused evils. Free will has been played out already. Unless you can offer something more substantial to the debate other than a big hypothetical "what-if", concede that free will cannot possibly justify the existance of human suffering in the world. Free will does not justify any of the natural horrors and disasters god apparently "programed" into the function of the world.
