Could you explain please?

Okay, explain to me please and I don't care if you leave a rude comment! I will laugh it off and will be ignored haha. If God existed and talked to Noah about building and ark, and all these animals got on it, even the dangerous ones, but they never attacked cause god had like some power over them or whatever, how come he doesn't stop those who are attacked today from animals? And die a painful death? Hmm? Just a thought anyway . . .

    I don't think anyone really has the answer for that.

    To find out why God allows suffering, we need to think back to the time when suffering began. When Satan led Adam and Eve into disobeying Jehovah, an important question was raised. Satan did not call into question Jehovah’s power. Even Satan knows that there is no limit to Jehovah’s power. Rather, Satan questioned Jehovah’s right to rule. By calling God a liar who withholds good from his subjects, Satan charged that Jehovah is a bad ruler. (Genesis 3:2-5) Satan implied that mankind would be better off without God’s rulership. This was an attack on Jehovah’s sovereignty, his right to rule.

    So Jehovah God allowed time for Satan to 'prove' his point. It's like someone trying to do something better than you. They talk all this big talk but when it actually comes down to doing it, they fall flat on their face. But just because you see things going wrong doesnt mean you're goingt o step in to correct it. That'll be helping the other person. Instead, you just sit back and wait for that time when everyone sees what a failure the other person is. This is what God is doing.

    So all these bad things that happen are because we live in a imperfect world and sometimes people are in the wrong place at the wrong time. But we should remember that Jehovah God has a plan and he will act soon. He's going to get rid of Satan and all the bad things he's done & caused. Those who have died will be ressurected (Rev. 21:3-5) with no memory (Isaiah 65:17 of the previous bad things they had to endure

    Before the flood, there was no enmity between mankind and the animals and the animals were all vegetarians. Genesis 2:30 says, "And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food"

    After the flood, God put enmity between man and the rest of creation and changed the animal kingdom so that some were carnivorous or omnivorous. Genesis 9:1-6 says the following:

    "Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth. 2 The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands. 3 Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

    4 “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it. 5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.

    6 “Whoever sheds human blood,

    by humans shall their blood be shed;

    for in the image of God

    has God made mankind.""

    God gave mankind the animals for a food source but gave the animals fear of man as a protection to them.

    That's far from the only problem with the Flood myth. There's the genetic bottleneck issue (look up genetic variability in cheetahs for details), how fresh-water and salt-water aquatic species survived, how to fit that many species on the boat described, how a wooden boat that large wouldn't be torn apart, where the water came from, how the animals in places like Australia got to and from the ark, and so on.

    Seems to me God gave all living beings free will.

    Good question!,And the answer is that the only way that man is going too learn too preserve my different creations is by leaving them alone so they can breed as they do and survive on as a species.-Jesus Christ

    Duh! Because it was easy for God to pay attention to just one boat with only 2 of each kind of animal. It's a lot harder to deal with every animal in the entire world, so he doesn't bother.

    Why didn't Superman use his X-ray vision to find all the baddies before they committed crimes?
