violence is part of the animal world - and hence must be part of God.
Did God create violence ?
Look at the way a spider kills its food. 1 example of created violence - not man made ?

did you just finish up an introductory philosophy class?
Yes, God created violence.
God also gave humans free will.

God created the earth, Adam & Eve, everything was perfect. Satan tempted and Adam sinned. That is when violence started. The first murder was Cain killing Able. We will have violence until Jesus returns. In the Bible it states that as it get closer to the end the violence will become worse. Your only hope is to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. With this there is protection against the end time problems and a hope for a great future. He can and will provide that for you.

You have the same confusion as a lot of people. Good and evil are not like physical properties. They are abstracts, based on probable cuase and effect. You can't pour good in jars by the quart or cut evil in squares and mail it out to someone.
Where does violence come from? Frankly, it doesn't matter where it comes from. Justice has nothing to do with whose "naughty or nice," although that psychology might work when you're seven. It's really about cause and effect. If your actions cause damage and injury, the effect is that the other members of society have ways to discourage the behavior. But don't worry - we still love you.

that is not violence.
violence comes from nature you are correct, just like martial arts.
however your example is not an example of violence, it is an example of eating to live.
violence is when two grizzlies battle for territory, or over a mate.
to further explain my other statement, these two grizzlies fighting each other is also a prime example of martial arts. Nothing that can be used or applied by humans, but definitive proof that there was fighting and conflict and techniques and skills involved in resolving those conflicts prior to the existance of man.

violence is a behavior, it is not "created" by anyone. In my opinion, violence is the last resort of incompetence. When someone doesn't know what else to do, and has no skills for attaining their desires, they resort to violence to forcibly get what they want, incompetent response.

Violence is a gift from god, of course.

If you think of all the bad, sad and evil things, in this world, you will eventually come to the obvious understanding and rightful conclusion, that there is no god.
