What do you guys think of God knowing that we would get out of hand and destroy one another if we became to hard to control.

Of all the post of new technologies breakthroughs. There seems to be an repeating idea that these breakthroughs are a means of using for war. I was reflecting how stories of the bible would have people trying to achieve something that people of their time couldn't imagine doing. For instance the Tower of Babel. Workers building a huge tower to reach the heavens. Sounds silly, yes. But isn't weird that if those men finished the building and the power they would have over the people of the world. What do you guys think of God knowing that we would get out of hand and destroy one another if we became to hard to control.

If by God, you mean Enlil/Jehovah/Yahweh, it's more like, "God: Enslaver of Mankind."
That's sounds like an answer from someone who is possessed. I'm for the death of millions of people for the better of mankind. If those millions are pedophiles, rapist, super rich (evil), etc etc.
The problem with the idea that God is a violent A-hole was the fallowing.. Many fallen angels had to die during the flood. We would have had an extra species with us. This is also found in archeology of oversize human fossils.
To the OP: I honestly think the Tower of babel is compared to our LHC nowadays. We can see how technology makes people. I'm sure there were rumors about the tower before babel fell. The lhc is the same in that aspect. It would seem like every time in human history just before a civilization vanishes they were on the verge of some extraordinary techna. for example ATLANTIS.

I have a house. I want peace. I can't allow evil and hatred in my house. Some people on earth get life in prison. It's a state where the soul will not change or love.
God has to seperate evil from good or he's not just.
Are you saying that God is expecting man to just believe in something that they dont see???? And for those that cant handle that....they will be punished, even if they are a good person. "

Why not? i don't see and I believe and yet because of that I have seen miracles. I'm no different from the next man. Infact I grew up Godless. Didn't have a clue who Christ was until age 20. So noone is uncaple of converting or being led to him.
Those who are (good) people are not good themselves it's all Gods grace in them.
every act of love is grace in souls unless you run on pride. I can't make you understand this. So at the judgement seat if a soul goes to hell, all the graces dissapear which come from God.
The soul becomes an empty shell, of pure gracelessness. There will be no love left in that soul.
so again, you have to wait until the judgement seat for God to show you what grace is. I can't explain it in here.
peace.
