If god throws rocks at the earth because he's pissed at us, what must the dinosaurs have done to piss him off 60 million years ago? Maybe he was just getting in a few practice throws, so he doesn't miss when it comes time to wipe out his best-loved creation and start over (again).

I suppose it's possible that God (however you define God) could be guiding people.

Seems strange then that god is guiding people against each other.

You know, I could be really annoying and claim that the reason no major astroids have destroyed earth is because God is protecting us.

Protecting us against himself...

is god a schizophrenic?

Quote:

Surely any theodicy dealing with natural evil such as hurricanes, earthquakes, diseases etc would cover astroids too? So what's the problem here?

"Natural evil"? I've never heard THAT before.

If a small rock hits the earth it's "god's will".
If a large rock hits the earth it's "natural evil".

Seriously though... It's still just a rock, don't read too much into it.

God reminds me of me when I was little.

I used to build neat things out of blocks or legos or sand or whatever, and then throw things at the structure to watch it crash. It was fun!

So, God is a small child playing with blocks.
Perfect explaination.
