R2: Why would god not create the perfect earth in the first place, why this imperfect temporary version? Why create imperfect humans who he must have known would fall when he could have created perfect yet free one’s if he is really all powerful. Who know’s the mind of god?

Jeanie: Actually at one time this earth was perfect - the whole earth was a paradise....but when Adam became immortal so did the world in a sense. We believe we were actually in a different place in the universe at the time of Adam and Eve and when he fell, the earth did as well...literally. Its all about the Plan of Salvation or the Plan of Happiness.... It is deliberate. He did create us perfect, but then Adam and Eve would not have had seed and we would not have accomplished the very purpose of our tellestial state which is to be tested...to prove ourselves. To learn to obey and CHOOSE to find our way back to live with our Heavenly Parents and Jesus the Christ. That is eternal life! Eternal progression....to evolve to our highest potential. First we have to learn who we truly are, though. We are so so so much more than cousins of apes. We are Gods in embryo!!!!!!! I don't normally just throw that out there like that, but y'all are intelligent and open minded.
