Thank you deelynn, it's hard to put my thoughts into words sometimes.

Thats not really what I meant. He created us, for a purpose that no one can really answer but him. The love part, I meant that if we are to give thanks to him and love him we need free will in order for it to mean something. Without that we're robots who do good.

God wanted to create beings that would love him unconditionally. True love is an act of free will. With free will comes our own selfish desires which then leads us to our imperfection. I guess thats my view of why he created this imperfect world instead of an alternate perfect one. There is no straight answer, you have to look at the bigger picture

Go to sleep, I'm sleepy too I need a nap. I'll comment later or tomorrow. Btw I'm glad this is more of a discussion rather than a debate.

I honestly wish I could give you hard proof or evidence. Me and my best friend have this discussion now and then. God isn't about having proof though, it's about faith. I don't believe everything is an accident or coincidental, I believe there is a higher being. I love my life, even though I've had a lot of struggles. Free will has allowed me to live the way I live and though I'm not perfect God accepts me the way I am. A world without pain couldn't function because we are imperfect beings.

Heaven for us was supposed to be the Garden of Eden. Free will = no more Garden. Thus now we live like this.

I'm not really sure of what you want to hear.

Think about it though, what kind of world would it be like without pain? We all can't live forever. Everyone experiences heartbreak at least once. Accidents happen. Heaven has no pain or suffering.

His intention was for us to live in the Garden of Eden free from pain and suffering but temptation and disobedience banished Adam and Eve. Now, he knew this was going to happen but perhaps in every scenario Eve somehow would always eat that apple thus creating free will. He would then decide that he would rather take us as imperfect rather than the alternative of starting over because he has a greater plan than that.

Because of our free will there is no possible way that there can be no bad in this world. That's just the way life is. Have you ever watched The Time Machine? No matter how many times you change an event, the same result happens. Yes, God knows everything that will happen before it happens. I guess he would rather create our world with some beauty and pain than not have a world at all.

I like to study at Starbucks sometimes but I always have headphones to block out conversations like that.

He said he meant that they're more passionate and the show would be more sexualized. His English is not the best. Anyway not defending him just extra info.
