Did God intend a world filled with people? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 25/100. king008 (778)3 years ago

So Adam and Eve are hanging out in God's ant farm: The Garden of Eden. God told them not to eat from the tree that somehow teaches them how to procreate. Did he originally intend for it to be just that?I know this is a semi-rhetorical question because the surreal nature of "God" lets us excuse him in so many ways. But to put ourselves in the context of the moment, did God really intend for the sum of humanity to be in that garden?

What makes you think the fruit of that particular tree taught them how to procreate? I don't see that anywhere in the story of creation.

What do you mean exactly about Adam and Eve hanging out in God's ant farm, it was not an ant farm at all, yes God did tell them not to eat from the tree but Eve did now all woman have to suffer for Eve not listening to God, and God did want us to multiply but people do not live in the garden.

Yes, surely GOD wants the earth to be filled w/ people. thats why he told Adam and Eve to go and multiply. That's why some of people now a days that have many children specially here in our country.Their motto in life is go and multiply.That's why many Filipinos has lots of children.I think so he really intend it of us human to be in that garden.

Maybe God wanted you to multiply...

But he did intend for you to live past 30.

When man invented medecine to prolong life until 80... we should have adjusted our reproduction.

People multiply and then ask the west for money so that they can feed their children.
Why don't they ask God for money?

When are people going to wake up and realise that this planet of ours cannot support anymore people?


myLot reputation of 84/100. Aussies2007 (2918)  3 years ago

Correction

But he did NOT intend for you to live past 30.


myLot reputation of 97/100. deebomb (8929)  3 years ago

where on earth did you get the idea that God didnot want us to live past 30 years of age. Many of the people of the old testament lived to be in their 70s 90s and over 100 years old. The life span of man became lowere when they strated eatimg flesh, after the flood.


myLot reputation of 84/100. Aussies2007 (2918)  3 years ago

Well... it is a simple question of arithmetic. If people insist on multiplying by having babies... they need to die at a young age to prevent the population growing at an alarming rate. This worked well until the 1800's when the life expectancy was only 40 years old.

Today with the advance of medecine and the life expectancy getting close to 80... we have a population growing out of control.

"The life span of man became lowere when they strated eatimg flesh, after the flood."

Another good reason for not reading the bible. So what do you think the first men were eating? Carrots and lettuces? All they had was meat. Vegetables did not exist. And they ate raw meat like animals because they did not had a fire to cook it.

Please don't confuse fiction with reality.

After God made Adam and Eve he told them to be fruitful and to multiply and to fill the earth. They already knew how to have sex. Sex in its self is not a sin. Where did you get the idea that they learned about sex from a tree? Besides we really don't know how big that garden was. Before Adam and Eve ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil the garden just miht have covered the whole earth
