Some specifics on this would help a lot...
Also would you mind delve little deeper into HOW we got to this state you mention, who's faults and even more importantly...HOW to get out of it or fix it?
Thanks a bunch!
If you believe in holy scriptures then it seems pretty simple - pardon any mistakes where I misread/misunderstood the "happenings"... I'm fairly new to this.
God created everything - space, time, matter, angels and common folks(including bodybuilders).
Big feud in the heavens -> 1/3 of the angels(including Lucifer) get the shaft and end up in the earth realm.
Man gets tempted by Lucifer and bites the apple of "knowledge"... gets shit canned to hell on earth.
Now life on earth is a test that can be mastered by following a set of rules(e.g. 10 commandments) and in the end your sorry ass gets back to heaven - forever.
You being saved in the end is in the interest of Jesus aka our savior.
The other side of the coin are the various angels/demons that want us to stay or suffer eternal damnation. They offer treats/knowledge/false guidance/opportunity in exchange for the soul. They are way older than we can imagine and way more clever than we.
This is why there have been highly developed civilizations before us - they got tempted, "enlightened", corrupted(including intermingling of earthly and demon flesh) and destroyed.
So, to come to the point that interests you the most... if the creator gets pissed enough he will do a genetic pruning. Save a few specimens, flood, kill and let the pure remnants repopulate the earth.
This seems to be the eternal wheel of fortune... spinning since the beginning of time...
