God is NOT evil. End of story. Satan is. And man. We live in an evil world. That's why all this bad stuff is happening. There would be no point in heaven if earth was perfect.
This is a very personal thread, and I highly doubt anyone is going to change anyone elses opinon. I, being chrstian, dont think so.

Wow son, wow.
We don't live in an evil world. We live in an imperfect one. And that is only to be expected. We are, after all, imperfect. "If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666." - Revelations.
God is seen to be perfect. Satan is also perfect. Both of them combined together would make the perfect human...because they are imperfect, Imperfection IS perfect. Because it leaves room for improvement.
And that is..of course...if heaven even exists. And I, personally, would hate perfection. Perfectionists annoy me. The idea of heaven annoys me...not the actual heaven, but (if I believed in all this heaven/hell stuff of course) the getting there. Why should we have to strive to be perfect all the time, and lead a, or societies idea of an imperfect life, when we could live a better one. Always putting others before yourself...it's a very noble thought. But is it real, or just idealistic?

This is verging on being o/t, but...
Our imperfections make us who we are; differentiate us from the 'norm' (let's not start that one again). Imperfections are what make us beautiful, make us unique. That's what I think, anyway.

Imperfections make us perfect. Which I see as an imperfection. O_O I'm confusing myself now.
Meg (or anyone else for that matter): Do you happen to know what is the most followed religion in the world?

Christianity?
Ahh, I have a feeling that was a trick question or something.
