Origin of God? (The nature of a \'Creator\')
dhw: I have pointed out that his works, including but not confined to ourselves, are a mixture of what most of us would consider “good” and “bad”: e.g. the joys of spring, the miseries of disease. This is not a complaint, merely an observation, following your recommendation of the Koran's more “mature” view. If I extrapolate from God's works a mixture of the nice and nasty, may I take it that you will accept this as a “mature” concept of God? - What we are back to what is the problem of evil. And yes, the Koran is the most mature way to look at it. My answer to theodicy in my first book is the dangers in the environment and the disease causing organisms can be combatted by our intelligence as humans. They are challenges to be solved and we have solved many. We have no idea whether God wanted to protect us and make life a bed of roses, boring, or whether the evolutionary systems He employed did not permit him full control as religions seem to think He has.
