frank317: Another reason to see that the bible is nothing but a story book.
Suffering is part of nature. Life is all about survival of the fittest and not any God cursing anything.
How can God curse only man, woman and snake in that story book calld bible and no one wants to ask why rat, dog, goat, chiken etc are affected.
Well one power I realize the bible has is its ability to make the brain stop functioning.

Like I said earlier, it's no use as you won't understand it. Because it would be coming from the Bible which you guys don't understand and wont believe. So why don't you stop quoting me and lets just leave it there.

Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.
2 Timothy 2:23 (NIV)

But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
2 Timothy 2:23 (King James)

englishmart: It was one of them that deceived Adam.
So they all have to carry their crosses

All in the name of 'defending the gospel/God' you become so damn mean...
How fair is it to you for one to pay for the crime/sin of another, huh

Be rational for once, pls!

The Bible say all hav sin and fall short of the glory of God. So all the plants and animals hav also sin and they hav fall short of the glory of God

No problem, let the truth pass. The truth to u is that God cursed man, woman and snake. But all animals are automatically affected

Also, why did God wipe out all animals during the flood? Couldn't God have used a more ecologically suitable method to punish man? Why slaughter all animals (except those taken into the ark)?

what did they do wrong?

Because ground has been cursed for our sake. These animals came from the same ground and feed on thorns and thistles produced by cursed ground.
But all is well now in Jesus Name.

Nothing. They did nothing wrong. As to whether they are suffering, it depends on how you look at it. If you look at it with your eyes closed, they are not suffering.

Who has wondered what the food chain was like before the fall, anyway? The food chain is a major cause of suffering today. What did the ebola virus live off of in the garden? Or S. Typhii? Or maggots?

The ground means the planet earth, this include the water bodies. By the way have these animals complained to you that they are suffering?

Jehovah obviously did not create animals to be treated as humans are. For example they still die though they never ate any forbidden fruit.
