SCIENTISTS do not know why humans grow old and die.It seems that our cells should keep on being renwed and that we should live forever. The book Hyojun Soshikigaku(Standard Histology)say:It is a great mystery how the aging of cells is related to the aging and death of an individual``. Many scientists believe that there is a natural, inherent`` limit to life.Do you think think they are right? (2) WHEN disaters strike,destroying property and claiming lives,many cannot understand why such terrible things happen. Others are troubled by the extent, cruelty,and wantonness of crime and violence. You too may have wondered,Why does God permit suffering?

We grow old and die because we are living organisms. all living things eventually die. It is simply the cycle of life. God does not necessarily "permit" suffering... He gave humans the freedom of choice and promised us that freedom. If we hurt eachother and cause suffering... then that is the choice we make. He did not give us the feedom so he can take it away every time we mess up. That would not be right. God gave us powerful brains and hearts to learn to solve problems and to care for eachother... but mankind does not always do whats right or best... then we blame God for not fixing it.

Could you imagine the trouble we would be in if no-one died of old age? The planet would be over-run and we would die of starvation because the planet would not be able to support us.
Also, IMHO there is no such thing as a divine being. The bible and religion has sporned some of the worst monsters in history. They kill in the name of their god even though the bible says it's wrong to do so. The bible is a reference for people who have little in their lives to cling to.
When things go good we thank god. When things go down the toilet its an act of god and he is testing us... he is on a win win all the way even though he appears to do nothing... there is no real proof either way and neither will there be so. When you are dead you are dead so get out there and enjoy life... There more than likely is not another better one waiting for you...
Thos who kill, especially in the name of Allah are seriously brainwashed and unfortunately some people believe everything their religious leaders tell them... 73 virgins waiting for them in heaven... what sort of rational being would believe that... and why are these virgins in heaven in such quantaties anyhow... who killed them all?
Discuss...

There are some theories that age is a side-effect of some good genetic thing, like intelligence. If you didn't age, you'd be dumb as a rock. It's a tradeoff.
Everything dies. Nothing is permanent. That includes the human body. Even if it didn't age, you would still die eventually. Live in the moment.
And there is no conscious, compassionate being who is all-powerful. We all just wish there was.

well we are working on why, what genes, how they work etc. Someday we will be alot closer to knowing the cause exactly.
If people did not die, we would just all have to kill each other at a faster rate over food, space, and resources.
I am thinking the next species after humans might get it a bit better than we did.

God doesn't permit suffering...*life*permits suffering. I guess we just have to make a distinction between the two & I'm not even religious. God protects your "spiritual" self...not your "physical" self.
Have you noticed how people that have survived tragedies end up a better person.

i peeked in the process the item and it appeared precise sufficient. right here is my answer. whilst loss of life entered the international with the aid of sin the full of creation replaced into cursed. human beings want God to return down like some repairman and restoration each and every thing that's incorrect so it rather is like the backyard of Eden yet that would not resolve the subject that aside from organic mess ups, sin is the rationalization for lots of the suffering. Getting ill, becoming previous, and loss of life are each and every of the consequence of the curse that we delivered upon ourselves interior the backyard of Eden. regardless of if, there are a number of situations the place evil is thwarted with the aid of God and a lot of of the time human beings do not understand that that's God who's doing it or that some evil plan did not happen. One such tale encompasses a Nun who replaced into in a foreign places united states occurring a dirt street in a foul component of city. there have been a team of thieves finding for somebody to rob yet they permit her pass with the aid of. Later interior the day they have been arrested whilst attempting to rob the subsequent team of folk who got here down the line. whilst the police asked them why they hadn't attacked the Nun their reaction replaced into by using fact of the two extensive adult men who have been walking along with her. The Nun replaced into all on my own yet God despatched 2 angels to guard His servant. specific, God facilitates "unfastened will" yet He places obstacles around it so as that not something occurs that He would not reason or enable to take place. we are like prisoners on probation and till somebody ceases to have interplay interior the revolt that began interior the backyard of Eden the place Adam and Eve desperate it may be extra suited to be "like God" than have confidence and obey Him, they're on the super thank you to destruction.
