    i enjoy snails allot and in turn my parents ended up liking them aswell, i now have a bit of a collection- a terrarium solely of garden snails i captive bred, abit by accident, and there are three different species in it- some who dwell in the nooks and crannies of the wood under the substrate, some that settle in the shadows of the middle, and the more prominent and larger ones on the surface that hang out with the isopods eating lettuce
    then in my aquariums i have mystery snails, and due to a bladder snail over population causing issues with filtration (they put their eggs where they really shouldnt…) assassin snails aswell that have started breeding
    all this has got me very invested in how snails work and live but man, it was never intended even from the start, i was trying to have isopods but a snail got in the house during winter and i was just gonna keep him healthy until spring came so the cold snaps wouldnt kill him and here i am..

      If you really examine the living world, you'd have to conclude that the creator you believe in is not only a sadist but a really shoddy designer and worker. Any biological system or ecology is made up of parts that sort of work or work well enough, with no thought for the suffering of the individual. Evolution makes a lot more sense from a systems view, and from a philosophical view, I'd rather have a process that stumbles along by itself than one designed and built by a careless and cruel god.

      @@Bllizzy1 I thought we were talking about animals in the natural world. Eaten alive by parasites or predators, etc, like the snails in the video. Not that people don't suffer from parasites and diseases. If you want to consider humans, is it human responsibility for cancer? How about genetic diseases and birth defects? The Bible tells you that your god will punish your children and grandchildren and more for your sins. Does making all those innocents suffer to punish you at second hand sound loving or sadistic to you?
      Who is responsible for all the pain and suffering wild animals face? Do animals have free will? Have they chosen to disobey your god? Why do they suffer most of the same diseases and parasites that people do?
      If you do some research, as you say, about the natural world and don't just pick out the nice bits, you may wonder why you are such an apologist for an alleged omnipotent being, and some of the design choices he's supposedly made.
