Mosquitoes spread malaria and elephantiasis. They have no other use, even as a bio-diversity, except spreading these diseases. The why did god create them?

Let us assume that every thing was created by some god like the religionists. Still I could not understand why he created the mosquitoes.

JGN, there are a lot of facts that we cannot explain or understand. You dont have draw illogical inferences simply because you cannot understand something.

Can you pl make me understand? Btw I do not dream of getting an entry into the Paradise stocked with abundant supply of "wine, women, water, fruits, etc". We get all those things on planet earth itself. Still there is lot of fun in the Islamic Paradise. Pl search for X-Rated Paradise of Islam for more details.

yeah, even i'd like to think that one should not wear his relegion on his sleves. u r what u r inside you house, but once outside u r an indian and that's that. but the fact it there's nothing wrong with relegions as such, its that the people who follow them r to blame. somewhere along the line religion and life got intertwined. i believe that "life" as such is more important than religion. religion is after all a way of life. as Einstein said - All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.

>>god made mosquitoes to keep the population of the world in check....still the Govts in many countries (including India) are spending millions of dollars for family planning!!!! China has stringent population control rules and more than 1 child is not allowed at all. Then are you telling that "god" is a failure???

I have no quarrels with the believers. All that we ask is that confine your beliefs to the four walls of your home and respective places of worships. Pl do not bring god/gods on to the streets and create problems for the society at large.
If every one believed that there is no god, there would not have been any Rath yatra, demolition of some disputed structure and its aftermath, Orissa, Mangalore, etc (countless atrocities in the world in the name of religions and gods since time im-imorial).

I also thank both of you. And we (atheists) get a lot of abuses. We are not affected by them as our only intention is to spread Rationalism. Persons like me would be happy if we can make at least one person see reason.

JGN, I cannot make you understand because I dont understand why God created mosquites either, but i do not see that as a reason to do away with believing in the existence of God either. BTW I am looking forward to paradise with its wine and women.

god made mosquitoes to keep the population of the world in check. after all, it kills three million people a year. just imagine what the population of the world would be without mosquitoes. so thank god for his wonderful creation. i mean, if he can create u, why not a mosquito.
