do you think god thinks human suffering is nothing, like how we think an ant's feelings are nothing?

Answer 1

On the grand scale of reality, human suffering is nothing. Sorry, we're not the center of the Universe.

Answer 2

God does not think human suffering is nothing. God created us in His image and likeness. We did not create the ants, He did. He created everything. And God is there for us in our suffering. He gives us the strength we need to endure and overcome. All we need to do is ask. It doesn't mean we won't suffer, it just means He'll help us through it. You can't compare us to ants. It's like comparing apples and oranges.

Answer 3

I believe that God is up there crying over what is going on down here in His world. The devil is the one proceeding to do all this damage and yet we are first to blame God, why is that? God gives us choices and we choose either the right or wrong way the hard or the easy. I know God thinks of His children all the time, just know we are not forgotten and this will all be a good place to live again with no evil.

Answer 4

No. When I think of him watching his only son suffer like he did for humans and then I think of some of the answers seen on this site by some people and then I think of the evil done around the world without any care for the suffering his son underwent for us---I shudder when I think what will happen to those people. I cant even imagine if my son went through something like that and have it thrown back in his face. I would be angry beyond----

Answer 5

human suffering is but a test. it is how God seperates the "wheat from the chaffe".

Remember, God created us to populate the heaven. But he doesn't want this evil spread throughout heaven, so to see who is worthy, HE allows us free will, in order to see who's spirit is good, and whose is evil. All of the evil will be purged from the earth. It may seem like it taking a long time to you; for you only have but a short life time; God cut it to 120 years, in Genesis chapter 6. But even now, because many consume the unlean meats such as the swine of the land, and scavengers of the sea... smoking and excessive consumption of alchohol cut the lives even shorter.

But the pain any of us feel now is nothing compared to them who fail their tests and wind up in eternal torment.

Remember, in time; JAH will cure and end all pain.

Answer 6

I think humans suffer because of their own doing, God warned humans, how to live their life, we live for the day, or minute, we don`t think about the outcome. but its the things we do , that cause all the trouble that comes upon us.

Answer 7

God feels everything that we humans do. He is always there, and knows all that we go through. I believe he feels our pains and our joys. And offers us a means to relieve the pain, which is His grace. It's all just a matter of if we accept His gift.

Answer 8

thats why they say the human species is always in a rush. never stop to make sure we don't avoid the ants.
so some all compassionate emperors would sacrifce to the fire ants like in the scorpian king. now see how the emperor is alway the compassionate ONE. mostly by decree.

Answer 9

Study the soil for a moment. It naturally produces weeds. No one plants them; no one waters them. They even stubbornly push through cracks of a dry sidewalk. Millions of useless weeds sprout like there’s no tomorrow, strangling our crops and ruining our lawns. Pull them out by the roots, and there will be more tomorrow. They are nothing but a curse!

Consider how much of the earth is uninhabitable. There are millions of square miles of barren deserts in Africa and other parts of the world. Most of Australia is nothing but miles and miles of useless desolate land. Not only that, but the earth is constantly shaken with massive earthquakes. Its shores are lashed with hurricanes; tornadoes rip through creation with incredible fury; devastating floods soak the land; and terrible droughts parch the soil. Sharks, tigers, lions, snakes, spiders, and disease-carrying mosquitoes attack humanity and suck its life’s blood.

The earth’s inhabitants are afflicted with disease, pain, suffering, and death. Think of how many people are plagued with cancer, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, heart disease, emphysema, Parkinson’s, and a number of other debilitating illnesses. Consider all the children with leukemia, or people born with crippling diseases or without the mental capability to even feed themselves. All these things should convince thinking minds that something is radically wrong. Did God blow it when He created humanity? What sort of tyrant must our Creator be if this was His master plan?

Sadly, many use the issue of suffering as an excuse to reject any thought of God, when its existence is the very reason we should accept Him. Suffering stands as terrible testimony to the truth of the explanation given by the Word of God. But how can we know that the Bible is true? Simply by studying the prophecies of Matthew 24, Luke 21, and 2 Timothy 3. A few minutes of openhearted inspection will convince any honest skeptic that this is no ordinary book. It is the supernatural testament of our Creator about why there is suffering...and what we can do about it.

The Bible tells us that God cursed the earth because of Adam’s transgression. Weeds are a curse. So is disease. Sin and suffering cannot be separated. The Scriptures inform us that we live in a fallen creation. In the beginning, God created man perfect, and he lived in a perfect world without suffering. It was heaven on earth. When sin came into the world, death and misery came with it. Those who understand the message of Holy Scripture eagerly await a new heaven and a new earth "wherein dwells righteous-ness." In that coming Kingdom there will be no more pain, suffering, disease, or death. We are told that no eye has ever seen, nor has any ear heard, neither has any man’s mind ever imagined the wonderful things that God has in store for those who love Him (1 Corinthians 2:9).

Think for a moment what it would be like if food grew with the fervor of weeds. Consider how wonderful it would be if the deserts became incredibly fertile, if creation stopped devouring humanity. Imagine if the weather worked for us instead of against us, if disease completely disappeared, if pain was a thing of the past, if death was no more.

The dilemma is that we are like a child whose insatiable appetite for chocolate has caused his face to break out with ugly sores. He looks in the mirror and sees a sight that makes him depressed. But instead of giving up his beloved chocolate, he consoles himself by stuffing more into his mouth. Yet, the source of his pleasure is actually the cause of his suffering. The whole face of the earth is nothing but ugly sores of suffering. Everywhere we look we see unspeakable pain. But instead of believing God’s explanation and asking Him to forgive us and change our appetite, we run deeper into sin’s sweet embrace. There we find solace in its temporal pleasures, thus intensifying our pain, both in this life and in the life to come.

Answer 10

Assuming there is a God, and that he created everything, then he created the pain a mother feels when her son comes home from Iraq in a body bag.
