f god created us, then that means god created our emotion.
If god created our emotion, that means he is capable of understanding it.
If he can understand our love for one another, our hatred for people of other cultures, our frustration with how things are, our paranoid state of mind because of terrorism, all of it, then that means he is perfectly capable of feeling those exact feelings as well.
Therefore, I think since god understands us in a perfect and complete way, there is no point in saying "He will throw you in hell" or "He is going to judge you". Yes. He might judge me. But he isn't going to throw me in a pit of fire for feeling how I do, AFTER he MADE those feelings in the first place.
I don't know. ^Non-sensical rant.
We're supposed to be miniature replicas of God himself and so it would indeed make sense for God to have those feelings as well. What really separates you from the rest is how/if you choose to act on those feelings. Scenario: Caveman: "Caveman sees pretty girl.." "Cave man likes." "Caveman horny." "Caveman sex pretty girl.. Pretty girl doesn't want sex?" "Caveman rape pretty girl." So if let's say you want to have sex with 'Pretty Girl' then the appropriate action in most cases would definitely not be to just take what you want from her. You can have a bunch of feelings but that does not mean that you should act on all of them.
