Human Concept

RE: God and the Rock

The hole rock thing seems a really, I'm not going to say puerile although that does spring to mind but its such a human way of looking at it,

Can god make a stone so big that he can't lift it up? (the somewhat obvious straw man argument).

If god lives outside time and space and therefore time and space has no concept to him then of cause he can in that it doesn't really, the hole concept, the hole question is pointless almost, it's a human concept, the idea of picking up a stone is something that actively happens, causality, something you need arms to do, you need an up and a down and a right and a left and dimensions in time a space in order to do it and if god is outside of that concept of time and space and dimensions then the hole questions just completely pointless,
The question of evil, again this is another thing, you have to believe in evil in order for the question to be relevant, and I don't its as simple as that I think evil is a human concept that is irrelevant outside of the human sphere, the universe is not evil its just the universe, we created the concept of evil and we can un-create it just as easily, its just a word that we've come up with as well to say, things that we don't like, or even things like what make it difficult for people to live life the way they want to like the obstructionism, you can even call it obstructionism instead, by killing someone your obstructing their desire to remain alive, to me 'evil' is just a chose , it's a chose to follow that concept,.
In the 'universe' life just wants to live as easily as possible, if you can make life easier for yourself i.e. make easy money thus make life less stressful, then it will.
Everything life and man for that matter does is for its own benefit, I also don't believe in charity, in the sense that nothing is done for no benefit, nice friendly holy people live their lives the way they do because of a fear of a god disapproving their actions, you donate your time or money to counterbalance the sins or even just to feel better about yourselves, ask any charity worker and they will describe a pleasant buzz-like feeling in themselves they get when they do good, that's their gain, that's why they commit themselves to it. The genes inside us only desire is to survive. Nothing more nothing less, no good no evil. For there is no such thing, even to go to the extremes of terrorists, they believe what they practise is for the greater good, its only in our eyes this action is perceived as evil, there is no right and wrong in this, we can say they kill millions and they hold no respect for our being, but do we for the being of mice, or even hundreds of mice when we label them as pests and kill them all because they have taken a liking to our homes, they themselves are just molecules trying desperately, like us, to be, to live.
To kill an mouse, is acceptable, to drive over a cat is frowned upon, to kill a child, is pure evil, let by science terms they are all but different. Life is life weather it be big, small, stupid or intelligent, its life and all the glory that is life is just as great for the marvel that is a Childs development as it is for the birth of let another worm in the garden.
