[The Graceful Assassin]

That's really just propaganda, it has nothing to do with "true" good and evil.

Terminal Est, stupidity doesn't necessarilly have to fall under good or evil, it just is another category, like you said. Such things can confuse us and make us wonder, "Why would a God do that". There are several possibilities:

He is cruel, like you believe

He does this so that greater evils won't arise (Like maybe someone has a mental disability because they would have taken over the world or something. But then why would he allow evil to exist at all?)

God is not omnipotent and omnicient. He has faults and tries just like humans, so he can't create a "square circle" or be everywhere at the same time.

We just don't know and will never be able to comprehend these things, so we put our faith and trust with this God.



I lean towards the last two. The third has been on my mind for a while now, but it isn't necessarilly a bad thing.

I'm not sure how you think that natural selection is weeding out that yearning. Could you explain a little more?

But say we did find out what imposes our morality, and it isn't God. Well, then what imposes it on that, and so on, and so on. It's like an impossible, never ending chain that can only be explained to its fullest extent by a God. Kind of like how we are composed. We're made of cells, which are made of atoms, which are made of electrons/ protons, and so on. The only way we can fully explain our existence is that God created the most basic unit of all matter
