It really bothers me how JW's (and other religious people) refer to gods 'perfect' creation. - Genesis, "And god saw that it was good"
At the same time they blame imperfect, sinful, wicked humans & a devil for all the suffering that is going on in the world. Fair enough. Humans have much to be blamed for in the grand scheme of things.
However,
It struck me when the tsunami hit and hundreds of thousands of lives were violently & horribly ended,............. gods 'perfect' creation never got the blame. In fact volcanoes, mud slides, violent weather, etc, etc have taken the lives of millions of people over the years. Yet god remains 'blame free'????
On the other hand, if terrorism takes thousands of lives it is seen as a sign the end is 'very near'. The blame/guilt is put quite rightly with humans. But why the inconsistency?
Oh, because the bible says that god is love, never makes a single mistake and he knows best all the time, about everything. Blah, blah, blah.
Just another contradiction I saw and dismissed when in the org. I just couldnt figure it all out.
