I think there are Universal Laws we can't quite understand as human beings. The mystery of Good and Evil, balance, String Theory, Physics, all point to it and we know bits & pieces but really can't comprehend any of it.
The question is always asked, "why does God, if He is Good and Loving, allow so much evil to fly on Earth?" My answer as much as I can understand it, has to do with the fact that WE chose to run the Universe. When Adam & Eve ate the "apple" they were choosing Knowledge. With great knowledge comes great responsibility, right? We wanted to be like God - which entails the burden of running things.
Why did God allow us to eat the apple? Because He created us with the ability to make choices. He did not create zombies. We don't know how much Adam & Eve knew about the consequences of eating the apple. But we do know they were warned. They may even have seen some of the evil that occurs when you try to topple God - after all, Satan was out & about. They may even have been taught some things. We don't know. Fact is, we made (and each of still makes) the wrong choice.
So, the earth doesn't suck because God made us suck. This world sucks because He's letting US run it. This is what imperfect beings do with knowledge and free will. We screw it up to Hell and back.
So, if we will inevitably screw it up, and God KNOWS THIS, doesn't GOD suck, since He is so powerful and omniscient? Well, YES! Absolutely! EXCEPT for one thing: see next post.
