Re: A89: Alignment Error


here's a fun idea for you god-obsessed people to ponder...

Under your rules (Not mine! I'm athiest...)

God is perfect.
Man used to be perfect, until (s)he ate from the tree of knowledge.
Animals haven't eaten fron that tree.
Animals are therefore perfect.

So... What about extinction?
That means that God failed in an attempt to make a perfect creature,
because a perfect one wouldn't ever become extinct.

If you actually have a rational (or as close to it as you can get)
solution, i'd actually be interested in hearing it, if only for the
intellectual potential. I really don't want this to degenerate into
another flame war.
