As I said, I'm expressing an opinion. I don't expect you to agree. And when you say things like "How about a little humility in deference to your creator," you're obviously being disingenuous. But hey this is only a message board. Doesn't bother me.
You're asking me how exactly I know that God doesn't plan for a man to rape a woman? Is that a serious question? I'm not even sure how to answer that. He doesn't plan criminal activity.
Absent rape, people plan to have babies when they choose to have sex.
I don't claim to know God's plan for anyone. Never said I did. But that's just another straw man.
Bum - my suggestion that you look at these questions with some humility was 100% genuine.
Seriously - how do you have any idea what God plans, intends, etc...??
You say you don't but then you turn around and say what god doesn't intend i.e rape, birth defects, etc..
You can't have it both ways
You're using your human perspective of right/wrong etc... You really think God "cares" about the laws of man or our human perspective of Good and Evil?
Assuming that one believes in God one surely could understand that god has higher perpective on this these things
At least I hope you could understand that but then we're back to the humility thing again.
