Re: Brad riding shotgun on the magical tapeworm called wisdom
But the patterns we see in nature are in large parts *dependant* on such things. Why would this Satan have such an incredibly large influence on our lives and the world around us? Is this really a scenario where God is in control?

Re: Brad riding shotgun on the magical tapeworm called wisdom
- Malaria definitely kills people in extremely large numbers.
- Several types of the organisms that causes Malaria specifically requires humans as their hosts.
- The organisms are able to reproduce and most likely spread further before the infected person has died. The organism can reproduce and spread faster if it totally disregards the well being of the host. The long term effects are not very significant due to the very large amount of new hosts available.

I think what he means is that while things such as natural laws affect us all the same, a very large part of our lives as individuals is that we have different views on what is important, how to relate to the world around us, and how to relate to other people.
It isn't so much that reality is different, but that our perception of it is definitely subjective. And in many field (not much in science, but much in politics, for example) our subjective view is what makes us function as humans.
