Good post Lebell, but I've certainly got to take issue with this portion of it. I feel it is worthy pointing out that in Christian theology (I realize that isn't the only one being discussed) God did indeed intend to create a perfect world. The biblical narrative clearly begins with one. Apparently it was we humans who chose to deviate from God's intended purpose.
