Folks tend to think they have the wisdom to decide what's "good" and what's "bad", and who is helpful to have around and who's not!.

Thing is - everybody that's here serves a purpose!. Oh, we may not like it, and the results of someone's actions may cause us personal pain!. But I know for sure that I can't say who we'd be better off without!. It's impossible for me to know since I can't predict all of the possible results of someone's actions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The world would have been a better place without Darwin!. He created a ridiculous theory that no one with half a brain could accept, and people desperate to find a way to prove that God doesn't exist and is not our Creator and King grabbed it with glee!. How on earth could chance have formed things so minute we can't see or even comprehend them, and then so vast that we can't ever hope to even see even a small part of it!? Worlds within worlds, life abounding, and all just a mistake!? And where did all the matter come from that created all those mistakes!? No, there is a God, and since He has created all things, He alone is the rightful Judge and King of our planet and all its inhabitants!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I tend to agree with Brother Otter, every person serves some purpose with their life!.

Take Hitler for example, probably the one of the most evil men ever to live!. If anyone shouldn't have existed, he shouldn't have, right!? But look at what his life brought!. Under his rule, science and technology took huge leaps forward, and many modern concepts come from his countries work!.

His life also serves as an example and warning about the consequences of blaming people for war!. His rise in power was due to the poor handling of the resolution of WW1!. Since him though, the way wars are resolved has changed drastically, and many other lesser devils have been avoided because of him!.

He was truly evil, and for the sake of those he killed it may have been better that he didn't live, but even so his life still had a purpose!. I don't think it is our place to make the final call on whether someone should have existed or not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Otto Hahn,

he first split the uranium atom, which led to the atomic bomb!. So, basically he was the man behind all those deaths in Hiroshima and Nagasaki!. Although he was greatly distressed at how his invention had been used, it was still him who created it!. The bomb that fell on Hiroshima killed 140 000 people and destroyed 60% of the city!. This one atomic bomb had done as much damage as 20 000 tonnes of TNT!. After this, even more people dies from the radiation fall-out!. I know that there are uses for splitting the atom (nuclear power), but this man can definitley be described as a monster!. I think the wordl could have done without him!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I too agree with Brother Otter!.!.!.everyone serves a purpose!.!.!.

Take for instance one of the most despised figures in modern history, Adolph Hitler!. Would you think I was crazy if i told you that Hitler is partially responsible for making America the great country it is today!?

Follow me on this!.!.!.!.

Hitler and his regime were the aggressors who started WWII!.!.!.While mounting an offensive in hopes to conquer Russia, their allies, Japan, bombed UK, and US naval strongholds to weaken any oppisition that would prevent them from conquering the Pacific!.!.!.Most notably, Pearl Harbor!.!.!.this sent us into declaring war and entering WWII!.!.and the rest we know is history!.!.!.

But without our invovlvemnt in WWII, we would not be the great country we are today!.!.!.The war catapultedus out of a depression!.!.and changed our stance on global policies!.!.!.At first we were an isolationist nation who did not get involved in other countries' conflicts!. After WWII, we became the "Big Brother" of the world, protecting weaker countries from stronger countries who would choose to "bully" them!.!.!.This forced us to become a nation that placed high value on our military, and in turn to this day, we have the world's strongest military-thus making us the most powerful nation in the world!.!.!.

And we owe Hitler some thanks for that!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
