Question

Is there any answer to " Why man is to err ?"

Answer 1

People make errors because it is the way we learn. To not make errors is to be too timmid to lear from life.

Answer 2

In the novel Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, one of the charicters states "Through error you come to the truth! I am a man because I err! You never reach any truth without making fourteen mistakes and very likely a hundred and fourteen!" I think Dostoevsky puts it perfectly, but to expand on those thoughts, this is how I make sense of why man must err:

I personally believe that one of the purposes of life is to gain knowledge. Man strives (and always has) to understand the unknown. It is inate to want to know more because we are born knowing nothing, and since rarely our theories and hypotheses are correct the first time around, we are destined to make a few mistakes before we can know this desired truth... So yeah, I basically restated the above quote, but that is just how I would explain it in my own words.  

Answer 3

Each of us are challenged individually from birth until death and what we learn and experience becomes our own unique journey. The testiment our own soul; discovering our good and bad qualities, our reaction to actions, gaining wisdom to know the difference, being accountable for who we are and ultimately being comfortable with ourself, "peace of mind".

Peace Be Still

Answer 4

We are on this planet for correction. This is the very best place for correction that God allows us that are here.
