By going awry- would that be Eve biting the apple ? and then God needing to send Jesus to be a propitiation . Are we the retarded planet ?
Perhaps we are the litmus test for future created life on other planets. Perhaps God will do it 'better' next time, huh?

YUP!!!! We are who we are.....and we are doing just fine.....remove the fear mongering and logic will prevail..as for the power mongers(left or right) .....KISS MY A$$.............................
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

I saw Billy Graham answer this question on the Phil Donahue show a long time ago -
Consider the possibility that our universe can fit on the head of a pin. There are most probably other life forms - ( not suffering from arrested development- like us )- and so his Son only had to come here to " square things up ".
I dont disagree with self discipline that's why we are able to drive cars in opposite directions at high speeds every day....self discipline and the logical use of the muscle between the ears prevents man-made pre-crime laws.....when our government starts to have pre-crime laws and behavior modification laws we loose sight of the self and personal responsibility and the conversation turns into a "they need to do something" excuse...
we are humans with logic, reason, emotion, envy, greed, love, hate, survival instincts etc etc.......anyone who thinks we are the worst or that war shouldn't be 'if only this or that', famine shouldn't be 'if only this or that' etc etc hasn't looked in the mirror lately....or has and forgotten what they saw...

Man happens to be the dominate species on this planet, but only for a relatively short period time. Dinosaurs were the dominate species for 165 million years...(Were they made in His Image and Likeness?) Homo Sapiens have been on earth for only the last 200,000 years.
The earth did quite well with out us and would, no doubt, heal from the damage that humans have inflicted on our planet once we are no longer here.
With the damage being done to our earth, an alien being might look at our world and see us, not as the dominate species, but as an infestation on the planet.

Who's gonna save us? Ohhhhh nooooo...Where are the hippies...They should be planning a concert to save the planet. At the very least, it will give them a reason to spread the clap and smoke dope. Far out man!!!
But since we are discussing 'the bible'............didn't God say he created 'adam and eve' in His image? (not the dinosaurs)And the human race was to have dominion over the animals and the earth....no?
And is God really surprised or disappointed in how we 'take care' of the earth? He knew! And is God as concerned about the physical earth as He is about the human's soul and salvation? Again....discussing the bible.

If ya feel yourself as an infestation and a bug why dont you just set the example and go drink some deet....I dont disagree that we probably are NOT the smartest in this whole universe of one(we think), but here we are, and we are DOMINATE for now...sure we may be as the locusts that eat the food we need to eat but we also have no idea when the earth will be hit by an asteroid either......
so, here we are doing our thing,( we think) and, we think we are like something we have never seen---because 'they' told us....just like science as good as it is ISN'T remotely close to exact/perfect.....it's just what we do to get away from the human sacrifices by fire..
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

Where did it start getting disrespectful? there are MILLIONS/TRILLIONS of questions and ideas....I thought we were going along just fine..... ?
The same place it always starts:
Cicero: Who's gonna save us? Ohhhhh nooooo...Where are the hippies...They should be planning a concert to save the planet. At the very least, it will give them a reason to spread the clap and smoke dope. Far out man!!!

Humans...are like...an infestation...and like...they are killing the planet dude...we need to take this planet back from the polluters man...

All we are saying - is give peace a chance.
It's sad Senders, but this is the best that Cicero can do.
