This is the best example I can think of right now. Lets say I design a computer program to create and manage a society of people, ala simcity. In the background of this program, I have it set to roll a set of ten dice every second. Each time the program rolls ten dice of the same number, the program randomly selects 2 coordinates on the map. At one coordinate, the computer creates a tornado, which follows a straight path to the other coordinate, at which point, it disappears. Now, I have created the system in question. However, the individual tornado itself is not direct action on my part, but rather a natural phenomenon of the system that I created. If I were to die while the computer system was running, it would still have tornadoes, despite my not being alive anymore. Thats basically how I think the world functions. God made it, then sat back and watched.--[[User:Elamdri|Elamdri]] 12:01, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

:Why should he just sit back and watch? While your scenario is possible (technically) it's not convincing.--[[User:Sherman|Sherman]] 12:04, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

I did not come here to debate and be ridiculed for my belief. Please do not ridicule Christians with stronger faith than some others. [[User:Flippin|Flippin]] 11:54, 21 March 2007 (EDT)
