Think about your answer. Think about the scenario and all that
it
entails. You'd be producing worlds upon worlds in which both
suffering
and pleasure occurs, each at intensities you've probably never
experienced yourself. You'd be producing worlds whereupon life
would
evolve and some on which it would become intelligent. You'd be
producing worlds with rape, starvation, romance, hatred, flowers,
sunsets, malice, murder, multiple moonrises, sex, joy,
unimaginable
misery, the experience of both having children for some, burying
children for others... the whole gambit. Is existing such a
beneficial
thing that you would invoke the suffering of untold quadrillions
upon
quadrillions of individuals so that some may enjoy the act of
being?
Whether so or no, why?
For my part, I'm still not sure. I probably would, all things
considered.
If I were an omnipotent, omniscient, perfect being, why should I?
Exactly. Perfection doesn't need anything else. How do you add to
perfection? Why would it need anything else? Just the fact of
needing anything at all would make it imperfect. A perfect god
doesn't
need humanity to worship it. Therefore, humanity shouldn't exist at
all.
In fact, the perfect god doesn't need to exist, either. Once you're
perfect,
what else is there?
Many religious will tell us that god created us so that we could share
in his glory. HIS glory! What kind of a needs to be surrounded by puny,
compared to it, sycophants of it's own creation to honor and praise
it?
Not much of a god if you ask me.
And the christian god constantly demonstrates its omni-incompetance.
No wonder Shrub thinks he's GAWD. They have so much in common.
Brainless.
I suppose that we could say that Dub's mind is 'godlike'. It doesn't
exist.
