Makes sense somehow but then God isn’t omnipotent and/or all loving so looks like a contradiction to me. Or maybe he just gave up on humanity?

That’s the point of religion. Providing some kind of psychological comfort by giving answers to questions we can’t answer.

If you would have breakfast regularly it will probably be the opposite. Eating is all about regularity and habituation.

People say breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Even if he’s the antichrist, it’s still God’s plan by definition of the term “God” literally. The only question is if God exists or not. Or for me the question rather is if God’s existence matters or not.

But also the most successful. That is why it exists. I am pretty sure without religion we wouldn’t have been able to live together in sedentary groups larger than a few hundred people.

That sounds like kindergarten theology. I am pretty sure the common theological premise is that by definition, everything is Gods plan.

No it was “I don’t care, just take whoever the others want”.

Yeah this just says 1/3 of US Americans truly believe in God.

Doesn’t mean they have to be passive. They could say God did this to provoke me to do something against this.

I mean it’s similar to the question why god allows all this suffering and evil in the world. I think the common answer is to test us and to give us the opportunity to do good or something like that.

Just get kids and you are entertained for 20+ years
