I don't understand why you keep bringing up evolution when we are discussing God's non-intervention policy. The biologist's view of nature accounts very well for the vast amount of suffering and wasteful death we see in the world. Your's doesn't. The only way you can retain your belief in an interventionist God in the face of the vast mountain of evidence presented by history and the world around us that man is on his own, is to wear blinkers.For instance, your example of the fortuitous dry clearing and the disabled man. You attribute this to intervention by God. Yet on that same day many millions of people around the world would have been suffering terrible pain and misery without any relief, and many would have died unpleasant deaths, including deaths in childbirth and infants of diseases like malaria. But God didn't do anything for them, instead, according to you, He chose to single out your unremarkable case in favour of all the other deserving cases, apparently because you are a selfless Christian who is one of God's good guys. Doesn't that strike you as both ludicrously unlikely and randomly callous?
I know a thing or two about pain both from experience, and from people around me. Not the imaginary knowledge of people on the other side of the globe. Myself and people in my life. Pain is all in your head. Pain is what makes us alive. Pain nerves and pleasure nerves are the same system. Angels have no pain. Dead folks feel no pain.
You are under the illusion that in a "just & fair" world there should be no pain and no death. You are in the
wrong world pal.
My "Book" describes in detail why this world is the way it is, why men are the way we are, why God is unable to be here in physical form, why there is suffering in the world, & what we are supposed to do about it.
I fear for your sanity, cause you got nut'in but whining for the rest of your days. Actually, I worry more about the people around you if they have to listen to this sorrow day after day.
As to God answering our needs, He does that for every single person that asks. But don't forget, your solution of a huge morphine drip for every pain in the world , plus the option to never die, would again, not allow us to be human beings.
You seem to fear death a lot. Most likely that's your problem. I see answered prayer as a joy for everyone.
You see it as an insult to humanity. You are in a bad place and I doubt anybody envies your views on life.
