For coli christians, could you give me your best answers to the following four questions (if they apply in your belief system).
1. Suffering
I understand that it is considered fair that humans have inherited sin and suffering from Adam, but why do animals have to suffer?
Is that fair to animals? And if so, why? What did animals ever do to anyone?
Is your reasoning based on scripture? Which ones?
2. Snake in Eden
Why do Christians believe that the snake in Eden was really Satan the Devil?
What proof is there in the bible for that?
3. Global Flood, animals dispersion and god's love.
If a global flood happened a few thousand years ago, how did animals repopulate places with no land bridge .. Australia, Hawaii or the Galapagos Islands for example.
And if animals started to repopulate the world from Turkey why do we not find a greater variety of mammals closer to this area than further away.
If God loves animals why kill billions of innocent ones in flood?
Are there any scriptures that explains this?
4. Human Intelligence
Assuming sin is responsible for less-than-ideal human intelligence how is it fair that sin affects intelligence to varying degrees.
Why would sin cause some people to be so slow that they cannot understand the world around them or the message of the bible.
So slow that they cannot speak to their god.
How is that fair?

5. Flat Earth and Bible Science
When the bible says that the Earth hangs upon nothing, is it scientifically correct? Does the earth not hang on gravity?
