Don'tBeAfraid User ID: 32113282 United States 01/27/2013 12:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm quite amazed that so little meat in this debate. Other than my own attempts to bolster the OP's theoretical beings lacking digestion, I have not read one credible being yet. I know of 14 year olds who possess enough scientific education who could do better at debating. The reality is we were not made to be godlike. We were made as God intended, and lived in a paradise in the Garden of Eden without a care or worry or the slightest difficulty. Then we sinned and ruined that. While you make some radical claim that we could have been designed better, in all honestly, we are marvelously made. Anyone studying the biological sciences knows this. If one is a reductionist and compares us to some sort of biped digestive tract creature then yes, such depiction make us look like crude mockeries, but that's not what we are. Even in the mocking tone that Hamlet speaks, he still denotes the majesty of the human condition. In a way perhaps the OP is much like him: "What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty! In form and moving how express and admirable! In action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god! The beauty of the world. The paragon of animals. And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Man delights not me. No, nor woman neither, though by your smiling you seem to say so."

Not from me. Even a being of pure energy would be limited. God is limitless. God need not manifest at all. I find the need to pidgeon-hole God into a being of energy entirely laughable. God created the Universe, why would such a deity need to have a body at all unless only for our benefit to speak? That's a totally Greek/Roman concept of anthropomorphic deities, and no theologian would ever create such a small limited being for God. Would you prefer "You are presuming that this bolded statement refers to God" ? I believe both are correct.

That is the way of science. Saying that "a digestive system is irrefutable proof that there is no loving god, makes no logical sense". Saying that we evolved is plausible, but still doesn't exclude the fact that God could have set all that in motion, does it? Do you think that life just spontaneously happened?

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27575095 United Kingdom 01/27/2013 05:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Actually we were initially designed without a digestive system at all. Adam and Eve were given a digestive system only after being cast out of the garden of Eden. After being vast out they had difficulty finding nourishment similar to what was available in the garden. God sent an angle to bring them each a fig. The figs were very large. They had no idea how to eat them at first, when they finally did they suffered terrible stomach pains. After that they were put to sleep and their bodies modified for the environment. When they woke up and saw what had been done to their bodies they were devastated. They knew then there would be no returning to Eden,no body designed like their's would ever be permitted entrance. There are many old texts available that speak of these early days of humanity. The Forgotten Books of Eden from the Apocrypha are some of the most easily available online. Can find them on sites such as sacred texts under Apocrypha(means hidden in Greek) From the Forgotten Books of Eden : God says "O Adam, when thou wast in My garden, thou knewest neither eating nor drinking; neither faintness nor suffering; neither leanness of flesh, nor change; neither did sleep depart from thine eyes. But since thou transgressedst, and camest into this strange land, all these trials are come upon thee." The first Human hunger. 2 "But when thou camest to dwell in this strange land, thy animal body could not be on earth without earthly food, to strengthen it and to restore its powers." 3 And God withdrew His Word from Adam. Then they sat down to eat the figs; but they knew not how to eat them; for they were not accustomed to eat earthly food. They feared also lest, if they ate, their stomach should be burdened and their flesh thickened, and their hearts take to liking earthly food. CHAP. LXV. Adam and Eve acquire digestive organs. Final hope of returning to the Garden is quenched. AND when it was day, they rose and prayed, after their custom, and then went out of the cave. p. 45 2 But as they felt great trouble from the food they had eaten, and to which they were not used, they went about in the cave saying to each other:-- 3 "What has happened to us through eating, that this pain should have come upon us? Woe be to us, we shall die! Better for us to have died than to have eaten; and to have kept our bodies pure, than to have defiled them with food." 4 Then Adam said to Eve, "This pain did not come to us in the garden, neither did we eat such bad food there. Thinkest thou, O Eve, that God will plague us through the food that is in us, or that our inwards will come out; or that God means to kill us with this pain before He has fulfilled His promise to us?" 5 Then Adam besought the Lord and said, "O Lord, let us not perish through the food we have eaten. O Lord, smite us not; but deal with us according to Thy great mercy, and forsake us not until the day of the promise Thou hast made us." 6 Then God looked upon them, and at once fitted them for eating food; as unto this day; so that they should not perish. |
