Oh, thanks.

Well, ‘Amy’ had a long run on Jeopardy, but it is over now.

‘She’ started life as a man, got married, decided ‘she’ wasn’t happy, mutilated ‘her’ body to give an outward appearance as a female - but...

...’she’ is STILL a man.

And ‘her’ heart is not changed for ‘she’ is now living with another FEMALE!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

  9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
      Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

How are those chromosome change operations coming along?

That may be next on Dr. Mengele's - er, Dr. Fauci's to-do list.

Well, ‘Amy’ had a long run on Jeopardy, but it is over now.

If there is a dictionary definition of dysfunction, Amy’s picture would be there. 😀🙃

As for negative effects, we would overall be even more shallow and selfish if everyone in this life was health and living without want.

Would recommend anyone who is interested to refresh their understanding by reading this Wikipedia entry:

daniel1212, you seem to be promoting something resembling what Stephen Maitzen called the "Heaven Swamps Everything" theodicy, with some Irenaean theodicy ("Evil can promote spiritual growth") thrown in for good measure.

"Skeptical theologians argue that, since no one can fully understand God's ultimate plan, no one can assume that evil actions do not have some sort of greater purpose"

Which is actually true despite the source attribution. A child does not understand the actions of his parents, which to him can seen mean and or senseless. Likewise a solidier in battle. Yet such are fallible beings, and with very finite understanding, whereas if God is the God of the Bible then "His understanding is infinite," as is His power, (Psalms 147:5) "declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done," (Isaiah 46:10)and thus can make what is objectively evil to actually be good, just and even merciful and gracious when all the aspects are known.

The only remaining quality that is critical is that of God's promise to make all work out for Good, which He has demonstrated, so much so that an entire book could be written of all how evil worked out for good just in this life, and then there is eternity. With no less an example than God sparing not His own Son but delivered him up for us all (Romans 8:32) to an unjust death by wicked hands. Thanks be to God.
