Job 17- End

It's interesting that Job feels that God has limited human intelligence when he sits down with a couple of his friends to try to figure out why his life is turning out to be so miserable when he has done anything but sin. This is interesting because of two things. Supposedly God created humans as an exact replica of him, but as we saw in Genesis he didn't want us to be equal, he still cared about being the mightiest of all. I believe that our intelligence is limited, but we have never come anywhere near to filling it. What I don't believe to have limits is human curiosity, which in a way helps us become more intelligent. The other thing that I considered was the fact that Job was sad because he had not done anything wrong. I believe that most of the people today that encounter daily sufferment, such as hunger, violence, mental problems, or near-death encounters are just like him, people who have not sinned but sadly have terrible destinies. I also think that many of the people who have it all under our materialistic eyes are dishonest, uncaring, and plain bad people. However, they have anything at their disposition, while good people who technically deserve what the rich person has can't even imagine all of the luxuries these people have. This is terribly unfair, but sadly, the truth. This is why I tend to believe that what happens in the lives of people are not realted to the sins you do during your life, but rather by simple luck. Maybe Job is wrong, it has nothing to do with him. But at the same time, maybe things were different in his time.
