And if food rained down from the clouds, no one would starve. Neither is about to happen anytime soon, so we need to figure out how to best live in reality.
Let me make this clear to you. From what see you saying, you are supporting murder, your supporting also, murder of the unborn. You support theft, but I'll bet you wouldn't like it if someone broke into your house, and stole your computer. You are supporting adultery. Last, your supporting lying, so we should all be untruthful. Yeah! That will make this world better!
You are incorrect in your assumption. I do not support those things, but I acknowledge they happen, and live with that reality. I do not waste time saying "if they didn't, life would be perfect" which is simply wishing for the world to change while I do nothing. Instead, I say "These things happen. What can I do to make the world a better place in spite of that reality?"
Here's a different example to better show the two ways of thinking: let's say I was broke. I could say "if I had money, I could pay off all my debt." Or I could say "I have debt. What do I need to do to pay that off?" The first statement makes my situation sound hopeless, and that I am at the mercy of luck to get out of my situation. The second acknowledges reality, and seeks an active solution to the problem.
I believe It is a good thing that the farmers exercise faith in their plantings.
