"The parasite my lab is beginning to focus on is one in the world of mammals, where parasites are changing mammalian behavior. It's got to do with this parasite, this protozoan called Toxoplasma. If you're ever pregnant, if you're ever around anyone who's pregnant, you know you immediately get skittish about cat feces, cat bedding, cat everything, because it could carry Toxo. And you do not want to get Toxoplasma into a fetal nervous system. It's a disaster."
What about the so called "worm's" right to exist? And eat?
Let's be logical here. What is the difference between a worm that eats your intestines and a lion or a shark that eats your whole body.
These do not take away for the creative handiwork of God...especially when such death and disease is the result of sin and disobedience - where God is teaching His children the consequences of actions.
This whole world (temporary creation) should teach you that the world NEEDS a Savior. The fact that viruses and bacteria or anything that affects you and kills you is the result of God's logical judgement on "choice" (choosing to disobey Him) and can not even be isolated without looking at competing factors that are diametrically opposed.
As long as your assumptions fail to deal with the consequences of sin and death...you will never understand this temporary creation and the incredible work that God is doing in bringing about SALVATION from it and from its consequences.

Thank you for that. Now I've got my incoherence supply well stocked.
it is not that difficult to understand how your own conscience can be against your personal desires to do things you know you shouldn't, but still want to. Even a child can understand this principle.

This is the most succinct and power article I think I've ever read, John. And it's logic is unbeatable.
