Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
Now i think God made bacteria, because bacteria are important for eating our poo and keeping us from getting sick... although some bacteria do make us sick for some reason (i dont get that, i think some bacteria get influenced by satan and deviate from goodness or something).
But i heard viruses arent even alive, they just make more of themselves and kill things, so whats the point of that? I think viruses are the work of satan, because all they bring is death and destruction (as well as colds, apparently caused by some sort of rhinocerousvirus)

It is true that viruses and other harmful unseen agents were blamed to be demons. If you want to get spiritual, viruses and sickness are catalyzed and controlled by dark forces. Their engineering, though, was like any other: through evolution. They simply were planned to come about. Not to mention, viruses aid in the development of creatures in natural selection.
Carnivores eat other animals to survive and then have fuzzy babies that are cute and good, but my point is that viruses arent alive at all; therefore they destroy life for no common good. I guess some virii do look fuzzy in a way.
Orihalcon: anyway, virii are useful for genetic engineering
Maybe thats why God made them?
