Responsibility

Were Adam and Eve the best beings He could create? (Sinless but imperfect, or at least not Holy).

I see now that God created Humans as imperfect, but sinless beings. I assume that He could have created perfect beings who got something out of having a relationship with Him?) The question I am pondering is why did He not create sinless perfect beings? (Thus avoiding all the sin)

Is the answer:

a) He did it for some unknown reason?

b) He created us imperfect in error, feels guilty about it, and that is why He lets us live on? He feels responsible in some way for our sins?

c) Some other reason, or without a reason?

Does God, our creator, in any way feel responsible for our behaviour?

I agree with you wholeheartedly when you talk about faith and trust. I spent most of my life not believing, as I had no basis to even start my faith and trust in God. I then had an experience that allowed me to ignore logic and reason and have faith. I cannot reconcile the existence of God as described in The Bible with logic or reason at all. When Christians say that the Holy Spirit is necessary for a "conversion" that seems to have a ring of at least relative truth.

For faith there is something greater than The Bible that is needed.

And is not one answer to the child .. "Satan could do so because God made him that way" ?

God bless you brother.

No song: same reason as yesterday!
