Can I use a lifeline?

You can call the savior!
John 18 Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”

You're out of lifelines. But you are allowed to think for yourself.

I think those are very good questions that WW asked, Exrev - I'd like to see your answer.

Christianity is the red pill - go for it! Seek the truth, wherever it leads you.

How can you know what God does or does not intend?

God seeks to promote the development of life? To who? God made life! It's up to him what happens with life, isn't it? Why would God seek to promote it? He knows where everything is and what's going to happen to it all.

And how does God "preserve" life from the things which destroy it? When has this ever happened, God "preserving" life from things which destroy it?

Nothing has ever prevented life from being destroyed because there just isn't anything that can do that. Obviously you're convinced otherwise.
