I know this topic has been spoken about but i havent seen an official thead about it. So Theists why did God create these and why does he co tinue to allow them? Are they from the talking snake, satan?

Perhaps the human body was immue to bacteria and viruses when it was perfect. Today some bacteria and viruses are good for us, this could indicate that they were all beneficial in the beginning and that the harm could be due to our imperfect bodies rather than the bacteria and viruses themselves. When viewed this way God didn't create any harmful bacteria or viruses, they just because harmful after Adam sinned and our bodies were no longer perfect.

Life is messy and short. Dying can be even messier, but Death is neat and very long.

Space--if the bad viruses and bacteria were pnly bad after adam sinned, why did he create them in the first place? What point would they even serve? Certainly they arent good.....try again

That's irrelevant. No one knows why every bacteria or virus exist today let alone millions of years ago. The point is you're assuming that bacteria and viruses were always bad despite the fact that many of them are beneficial.

Actually its very relevant...the idea that you impose without admitting it is that viruses and bacteria evolved into harmful bacteria....If God created all things in their finished form and had man name it, then all species and animals were known. Right? I think with little evidence to prove or disporve god created all things, especially toward christians who take the Bible very seriously, ALL things are relevant....every shred.

If they weren't originally harmful to the body then why do humans and animals have immune systems that specialize in fighting bacteria and viruses? Why did God have to design immune systems at all? Or did immune systems come about after sin? LOL.
So God created something that he knows to be harmful to humans so he then addresses that problem by creating an immune system to counteract the harmful thing that he made? Isn't that a bit like God fighting with himself?
