By extension, I'm curious what your views on suffering are. Clearly there are times in this world when an individual suffers and the individual did nothing to provoke that suffering. I assume you don't believe it's fair to punish a collective for sins made by individuals within that collective. Why did god create a world where individuals deal with pain they don't deserve, then?
Do you believe the whole bible, old testament and all? Or do you think parts (in particular the older parts) may be impure?
Sorry if you already answered these things. You can just quote where you said it before if that's the case...
I'm a faithless cynical atheist, but I'm not going to act like I know better or anything. I'm just curious what you think.
