No wonder! I'd be hiding too!

Maybe it was a divan intervention...it will be if the other god gets a hold of him.

abra...ty for that

I'm sorry for your mom...but if she is anything like my grandmother...there is no need to say sory for anyone. My grandmother has seen her great grandchildren grow and has watched her kids and grandkids grow. If she dies...no matter how much we will miss her...she is happy. even with pain she hasn't lost faith that God has a plan for everything it's her faith that helps me with mine.

I can't read peoples minds and I certainly can't read God's. I can't say why things happen...

for those suffering...maybe he wants us to learn to help one another...learn compassion for our fellow man. I can't say why for sure but I can't and won't loose my faith.

one more story and you cn go back to debating...

my dad was a navigator in the AF. My mom prayed EVERY night before his death for God to bring him home safely. while on duty his plane crashed nto a mountain and he died. I hated my dad for leaving us and hated God for taking him.

I came to realize about 5 years ago that holding onto that caused alot of problems for me. as much as I miss my dad, I think I wouldn't be who I am today if he was still here. I think it made me stronger.

If my mother had been blessed with all of that maybe I wouldn’t feel that her life was so cheated. That’s a big part about what I wasn’t able to offer her that I had wanted to.

They say that the best things in life are free. But they fail to mention that they aren’t always in stock.

Dear Abracabdabra and Yellowrose,


I am sorry for the deepend pain you both suffer. Sometimes it is good to just talk about it to release some pressure or anger. I think it is good to express feelings and let out alot of frustrations and anger to understand oneself. We are human we need to do this sometimes.

This is a gift I give you.

ty hun...like I said...I don't think I'd be who I am today if he was still alive. I know that doesn't sound good though. and my grandma gave me the best of her

I have absolutely no anger associated with my mother’s life or passing. My feelings are more along the lines of sorrow and disappointment that things couldn’t have been better for her.

It’s a totally different feeling than anger.

Also, what I keep apologizing for is the state of nature. I don’t attribute that state to any deity. I’m just sorry that life is so fcked up. I’m sorry that people are so fcked up. No need to be angry about it. I’m just sorry that life isn’t better for those who deserve it. And my mother most certainly deserved it. There can be no doubt about that.

Dear Abra,

I feel like this many times in the days when I worked for the Red Cross travelling to countries who are really less fortunate. I also felt like this now as I rarely know my parents having fortunately found one of them a few years ago.

Perhaps one way to resolve this problem is to be ignorant and really see only good things. It sounds silly or ridiculous, but I realized those who don't worry about politics, religion, suffering, and so forth really go full speed in life. I know a few atheists who are like this.

Well I definetly don't have the solutions that is for sure!

Who are you? Who have you wronged? Ok I'll get to my point: Most of what you said people do to people. Lets try the weather aspect. A tornado comes in, crushes a house and the family is penned under and suffers before they die. That would be a better example! But why would God change what he set in motion? What fun would it be if we had no pain? With no pain, how would we know joy and happiness? Now you can ask "well what was the point of them dying?" Cause of nature. And did the people decide to live there, in a place that they knew had tornadoes?

Every vile nasty things that happens to the human population is of satan not God. Why is it that when things go well in people's life they don't thank God....but as soon as anything bad happens they blame God. God is not the reason for our sin......we are, God is not the one that had the abused child grow up to also abuse. It kills me that people that don't trust their lives to the Lord are the same people blaming God for all that is bad with this planet...and their lives, Get a clue....God is not doing it....

You obviously have a deep need to take your idea of God seriously. We that do not believe in him, on the other hand, do not. We do not give him credit for anything good or bad. We just try to point out how incredibly ridicules his story is when you put even the slightest amount of logic to it.
We could ask why Santa Clause is so mean to kids and only gives them coal when we know it is bad for kids. You would not say we were angry in saying that. You would not say we are blaming Santa. You would think that we just lost it.
This is the point of view we have to argue from daily.

Why do u try to point out how ridicule his story is. If you do not believe in him. That is a good thing. Why do you become a judgmental person? Who did give you the right to point out something that you should not even care? If you do not believe in God why do you care for those who believe in HIM
This is the only point I can't understand about non believers. Somebody explain, what is the point of pointing the ridicule of something in which i don't even believe?
For me is just a waste of time. If I don't believe I should not care.

I think it is that non-believers are angry that believers cannot be as "enlightened" as non-believers are. It can work the same way with Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, what have you. Who is to say who is right and who is wrong? Believe what you believe and love those that don't share your beliefs.God does not hate those that don't believe in Him. He loves them.

Would you have God take everything out of the hands of man, so man can be crippled into believing he is just a sheep with no mind or ability to find the way to heal the evils of his own kind. Did God make those rapists or did mankind? Blame God, rant and rave, then look in the mirror and tell me what means have you employed to end or even attempt to end the ills of humanity. Would a father figure do any less then let their children learn a thing or two on their own, or do you wish to be spoon fed?

Ah yes, free will. It is a great gift.

God is on the sideline waiting...
while your friends keep voting on each persons right to love whatever they want to love, in whatever way makes them happy...well you know, pedophiles want to love and rape innocent children.
while your friends vote to remove God from sight and history.
and now you have the nerve to wonder where is God?!
while people you know marry and divorce just because they have the right to do so.
while people lust over physical beauty, and then destroy the innocent children created of those random relationships because why deal with the consequences of their actions when they can make it go away.
God is with those who welcome him into their life. God cannot intervene where he has not been invited. that is the fruit of free will. He will not force you to believe. He will not force you to include him in your plans.

God knows that his children are of sin but have merely been lead astray but all they have to do is believe in Jesus and repent and God shall forgive them and ye shall meet these brotheren in Heaven

Nonbelievers aren't mad at him because

1. they may not believe he exists and don't understand what he's doing and

2. are too busy being fooled by him

When you understand what he does and the consequences of it (our physical and spiritual death), then you can be motivated to seek the Lord's salvation and you're motivated to walk with him (which is part of that salvation: repentance).

And the rest kind of follows from that.

My prayer is that everyone here understands how dangerous and how destructive Satan is and that they take action to step away from evil and toward the Lord.

Why don't you do this today? It'd be the best and the greatest thing you could ever do. You're welcome to e-mail me and talk with me about this at any time.

Geo.
