Do Genesis literalists also take the rest of the Bible literally?

If God who created Satan cannot rid this world of this evil entity

God can rid the world of Satan. The problem is that there are people that have followed Satan in his rebellion. So God is long suffering and patient to give them a chance to repent and turn away from their sin. Adam and Eve brought sin upon mankind. Christ came to pay the price for that sin, because God is a God of absolute Justice. God knows what HE is doing and He knows better then we do how to run this universe. If you do not agree then your free to join Satan in his rebellion against God. That is what having free will is all about. God does not force anyone to surrender their life to Him. He gives everyone the freedom to make that choice.

God is in complete control. Love doesn't force itself upon any.

Any and all are allowed to choose. Freedom.

You would be unable to identify all this injustice if God did not supply
you with a vision of how things should be.

I don't beleive I need guidance from a supernatural being to decide what is right or wrong. It is all relative. Do you think that people in the middle ages, who lived in freezong cold temperatures, had no sanitation, a high infant mortality rate etc etc etc considered themselves to be living in poor conditions? If you compare it to how 1st world countries live today you would say yes, but back then it was the norm for even the wealthy countries.

Do Goldfish complain that water is too wet and the injustice of not
walking on land? Only Humans understand that this world is not
built right. All other animals are oblivious to the injustice of their
environment.

I didn't know you were Dr. Dolittle and regularly conversed with animals. I know that my dogs knew the difference between a nice warm blanket and bed out of the wind and sleeping outsite in the rain. Given a choice they chose the better conditions.

Only humans are connected to God and have God-Vision to see Sin.
You are seeing sin in the world and know it's wrong. You are
a child of God and it shows, else you wouldn't care.

So how does God-Vision work? Is that like night vision, but all sin turns up red? Maybe we should tell the police about this so they can catch and prevent rapists and murderers before they commit the crime, as they would be able to see the sinful nature of the person leading up to the crime.

As a group we decide what is acceptable behaviour and what is not, by writing laws and enforcing them within out society. In some countries it is illegal for a woman to be in public without a male escort, because their society find that unacceptable. While our society finds that unjust and does not have those laws.

God is in control only they talk about the permissive will of God and the perfect Divine will of God.

Greed wouldn't exist without the creator of greed itself, the devil. John 8:44 proves that. "The father of it" refers to creator of it.

What about the father of the father of evil? Did not God create Satan long before he created humans?

Compassion, forgiveness, understanding, the will to help, the will to strive and acquire knowledge that will help in curing diseases and foretell natural disasters is the mark of a civilised society; Something politics and religion have ignored, and instead use Fear, terror, subjugation, divide and rule, exploitation as their tools of trade!

 

[SkyWriting]

I don't believe I need guidance from a supernatural being to decide what is right or wrong. It is all relative.

You already have the guidance to know that right and wrong exists!

The extent to which you apply that knowledge is indeed relative.
But thanks to Adam and Eve, you know right from wrong.
How much you apply it is relative.

History is always written by the victorious while the vanquished are vilified as evil! Besides all supernatural deities be they good or evil are nothing more than a figment of the imagination.

Perhaps you will do well to look at reality for a change!

Humans have done that.
Jesus didn't.

Matthew 20:25-28
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Matthew 13:32
Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

Matthew 25:40
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

And how exactly does that help cure diseases, stop natural disasters, stop poverty, etc. ad infinitum?

stop natural disasters

Not all disasters are natural:

Here are some facts -- you decide:

• 30 October 1991: The Halloween Monster, a.k.a. The Perfect Storm, strikes the U.S. amid the "land-for-peace" Madrid peace talks; President Bush's ocean-side home destroyed.
• 23 August 1992: President Bush moves Madrid talks to U.S. soil; that very day, Hurricane Andrew devastates southern Florida.
• 16 January 1994: President Clinton meets with Syrian President Hafez Assad to discuss more "land for peace" arrangements; less than 24 hours later, a 6.9 earthquake pulverized southern California.
• 1 September 1993: President Clinton announces a meeting with Arafat for the Oslo peace accords, to be held on 13 September; after a week of meandering in the Atlantic Ocean, Hurricane Emily hits North Carolina on that very day.
• 21 January 1998: while waiting to meet with Arafat at the White House, President Clinton's sex scandal breaks out.
• 27 September 1998: Arafat is meeting with the president in Washington; Hurricane Georges hits Alabama and stalls. The hurricane stalls until Arafat leaves and then it dissipates. Parts of Alabama declared a disaster area.
• 17 October 1998: Arafat comes to the Wye Plantation meeting; incredible rains fall on Texas, which cause record flooding. Parts of Texas declared a disaster area.
• 3 September 1999: Secretary of State Albright meets with Arafat in Israel; Hurricane Dennis comes ashore on this very day after weeks of changing course in the Atlantic Ocean.
• 12-26 July 2000: Arafat at the Camp David meetings. Powerful droughts throughout the country. Forest fires explode in West into uncontrollable fires. By the end of August, 7 million acres are burnt.
• 9 November 2000, two days after the presidential election: Arafat meets with President Clinton at the White House to try and salvage the peace process; worst election crisis in over 100 years occurs.

Psalm 83:15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
