If I created life in a lab, should I judge it and (if possible) send it to an eternal furnace at my will?

Question

I did say 'if possible' in that.
The point of my recent question was missed entirely - how fantastic exactly is a creator, compared to the created?

Answer 1

yes! you definitely should. especially if you catch it worshipping some other lab scientist.

Answer 2

Once both are in existence, the two species are either competitors or not competitors. If they are competitors, the strongest will win. Usually, that will be the creator species because it has been around longer and knows the ways of war that work. If they are not competitors, they might be cooperators. The created race might be enslaved by the creator race and told that this situation was right and proper. Whether it is "right and proper" is relevant only as propaganda. If the creator race's ambition conflicts with those that arise among the created, there will be war, and the side with the best army will win.

Answer 3

Judging the created is judging the creator.
By the way : I was astonished to find in the Quran (i am a educated humanist protestant {Erasmus, Kirkegaard} who quit the church) such detailed cruel descriptions of the cosmic eternal holocaust, which are quite dramatic and happeningfull against what is described as 'heaven'. The 19th Cntry. Christian Catholic descriptions of the eternal furnace remind much the islamic ones and I suppose there should be a copyright issue between Islam and Catholics about the description of the eternal furnace. I also think that one should not settle this copyright dispute on the eternal furnace by warship. But back to the main road of my answer :
The longer I think about it the longer I would prefer to go to the furnace instead of 'heaven', since 'heaven' is the place where everything comes to a state of no more change - it's the complete death and it does not need virtues to endure it, while the eternal furnace is the essence of life, the essential idea of life, wrapped and hidden in terrifying pictures.
There is another idea : Heaven is the place for the ones who did not use the borrowed talents but burried it in a dirty hole. They were just correct but basically not 'alive'.
Heaven is the place to go for those who are not prepared to take risks and not ready for uncertain experiences. Heaven is the place for intellectual, emotional and spiritual cowards and whimps. I prefere to go to hell since it's created by the creator to keep life not only going on but develloping. Imagine what we use furnaces for and what's happening in there and what is happening, on the other side e.g. in a garage or a store for rusty bombs and tanks or for outdated medicaments.
The pictures of fire and pain are showing the intensity 'life' assumes when progressively developping, an intensity which would be as unbearable for our spiritual condition we are generally born into as fire and blows are painful and deadly to our transient, perishable bodies. Remember what you are enabled in hell to endure whithout getting killed ! Is this not wonderfull and encouraging ? Noldi Schwarzenegger is just a schoolboy against an inmate of hell!
And, as described, this intensifying progress is ever lasting! Hell is the creator's masterpeace, heaven is his wastebag!
But, please, do not take this as a theory or even a teaching. It's just a suggestion for a new approach to the questions about heaven and hell.

Answer 4

The creator creates his creation with a purpose. Creation is given the freedom to choose. If the creation wilfully denies the creator and disobeys creator's orders, then there is nothing wrong in sending the creation to eternal furnace.

Answer 5

yeah but who came first, the creator or the created, or did the created actually create the creator, there would be no such thing as a creator without the actual created, as the creator needs the created to believe in him, or he would not exsist, so who has the real power here?

Answer 6

Don't people do it all the time with abortion. It really is up to them, as long as they have power to do so. They do what is better for them, and it's natural.

Answer 7

absolutely

Answer 8

whatever man

Answer 9

do as you please, you made it, its yours to play with
