There isn't a good reason for a persons life to end. Why are we cursed for all generations for a sin someone made when time began?

I think sin is like an invisible infection. We are all infected, some worse than others. However what i don t understand is that some say God knew beforehand that people would sin and that therefore the salvation plan was made before the beginning of the world. But why then would God present the image of fallen mankind as something that happened totally unexpected? Maybe he knew that things were going to get out of hand, but not in such a tremendous way. We don t know how God sees the world. I think we are accustomed to this place and thereby we are all blind.

There isn't a good reason for a persons life to end. Why are we cursed for all generations for a sin someone made when time began? I don't mean to give a snippet answer to your serious question ... but just let me throw out one possibility cubensis. I think we die that HE might live. Just as HE died that WE might live. What I am saying here is that each of us contribute to the total story of SIN. We demonstrate how sin impacts us.We can illustrate in a small way how we can make the right decisions against sin and with God to show a better way of life. We prove to the Universe that God's way is best. Our death shows that Satan's way only leads to misery. It is an important lesson that ALL in the Universe need to know. Sin can never return again. It would seem that we all must be REALLY dense to have to see SO much misery to be convienced. But God must surely know the extent that is needed.

The question was more aimed at a scientific point of view. When people tell me about evolution and say God doesn't exist, I think about death. If our bodies repair themselves, and we are self sustainable, then why do we age and die/ Why do you start from a fetus, then grow into a man or woman, then when you are in your 80s and more you are frail and weak? There seems to be no purpose to growing older except to eventually die. This is why I beliueve in something controlling the universe. Everything hads a beginning and an end.
