If there is none else besides the Creator, why does He send us pain? He doesn't. He is benevolent. He made us egoistic, and that egoismism what pains us because it is opposite from Him. So why did He make us opposite from Him? Becouse otherwise we wouldn't know what it means to be like Him. We wouldn't have anything to compare it with. 🙂

He doesn't send us pain, we do. It's OUR fault that people die because of war and famine, and it's OUR fault that we're nothing like him.

We're the ones who kill people and love ourselves above others, not him.

Everyone dies.

People have never needed to die in pain, but yet again, sin is of large in this world.

Even saints have died in pain.

Only due to others sin.

Every person is born, suffers, and dies. This is the Saha world (the world of suffering).

Yes, people are born, they suffer, they die.
That won't ever change due to the sin caused by the evil of others.

The sins of others have nothing to do with it.

It does though!
Have you heard of the Chaos theory? Well sin IS chaos. And sin increases the likelihood of things randomnly happening.

You may have a point there, however, the word sin has been so misused that it is easy to misunderstand it.

What about organized chaos?

Christian interpretations of sin have nothing to do with chaos theory, which is a mathematical model more closely associated with determinism (which also contradicts Christian free will) than anything resembling morality. A sin is a determined choice with tangible affects on the world, but to say that sin = chaos and that non-sin = order is a gross misunderstanding of the scientific concepts you're tossing about, and also a misunderstanding of human behavior as well as the subjective nature of our experience of reality.

Well many churches teach that Satan is the author of chaos or confusion.

God is Order, that's why he has order over the universe.
Satan is Chaos, which is rebellious.

As in fractals and the like?

I realize this, but that still has nothing to do with Chaos Theory. It's using the terms in a completely different manner.

I believe that's part of it. It's been awhile that I've read it.

God has power over everything, Satans power is limited.
So what god tells us is good, is right and causes good things, anything that rivals what he says causes the opposite, which increases the likelihood of The Chaos Theory.
