Watch, all responses will be the same. That a father has to let the child make mistakes, or why should God solve our problems, or satan is the reason and man sins or free will.
There won't be one decent answer that has any moral charachter to it, or any evidence of anything more than a cut and paste from their apologetics websites or training.
They were trained on this answer. Its a pattern. They are fed these pattern answers.
How much do you think the guys get paid to come up with those answers, these little pattern answers they give. Should we try the evolution card next?

I could be getting paid for this? Damn, I've been doing this for free!
If you don't like they answers you get, why ask the question? Why torture yourself?

Well, those must certainly be taken into account for it, but I don't think it's any other reason than the fact that contention is human nature. It's impossible for us as humans to be 100% tolerant of all living human beings. For many, hate and greed and such things overrun love and all that is good. I think that instead of those answers one that would be appropriate is that God gives us the bitter so that we may better enjoy the sweet. I don't think God rejoices in blood shed or war, in fact, I do believe he weeps at the loss of life of his children. However, it is part of the flesh to disagree and disagreements cause bitter arguements and ultimately that is where war comes in.
I do believe you are the most cynical person I have ever heard of, and that is saying something coming from an insanely cynical person. Maybe it's not a trained answer, it's just one a lot of people agree on. Or maybe it is a trained answer, is that so wrong? If we all believed those trained answers we wouldn't have any wars. What do you say about that?
Of course, that will never happen. People are too different. There will always be wars because that's what happens in a place where everyone is mortal and prone to make mistakes. That's all there is to it.

There is no God. Spirit however is in and of everything. Man has used his fears and desires over the centuries to create the religions of the world in mans image. You and I cannot yet know the fullness of the universe and the energy that it contains we must continue to strive to understand the universe based on our enquiring minds. One day the infinite might be better understood in the meantime the ignorant religious amongst us will continue to try and kill us all. We do not need a God to thrive; we need a global ethical policy which we all live by and an open mind as to the infinite possibilities.

It is a choice we make!!! so he must not allow or not allow we decide if we make war, and it depends on what do you thing god is?? for me is a form of energy the source of everything so he doesn't really do anything and we on the other hand are physical and we live here and if everyone just be good and love everything around then we surely would live in paradise or what people thing is paradise, because it is us who decide what to do, we are here in this world if we all choose to do just good things we wouldn't have to think there will come a son of god to save us or anything because everything should be wonder full because we make it like that, and if we suffer and we are in war is because we choose to do that!!! so understand there is no point of doing bad things and then repent, we make and live because of what we do, and if we suffer is because all people do not understand this! we choose what we make and how we make our own world of course is easier just to follow our animal instincts, to indulge our desires and act irresponsible and try to guilt some one else or to ask why does god allows this or that?!

Why even ask a question when you've already discarded any possible answers? Here's my "cookie cutter" answer: Without bad, there can be no good. Every horrific act in history has also produced immeasurable acts of kindness and giving. I've been through enough in life to know I wouldn't appreciate all that I have nearly as much if I hadn't been through the bad.

Well it sounds like you have answered yourself even tho you aren't supposed to. God gave us the blessing and burden of choice. But I will pray for you to be enlightened with the truth of the Holy Spirit, and not the insane selfish truth you have inundated your self with. He allows war because man is allowed to follow their dreams, even if they are wrong to God. But after they die, they will be repaid for the evil, do not worry about that. Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord.

You've answered, why rant?
Sorry for your shortcomings.
If you are such an aficionado, why do you perpetuate the candour?
Your mindset has way too much to offer for the Christian sect.
Is it not a waste of your time and energy?
Besides, your grief is not with Christians, is it?

This notion that God "allows" things to happen or even cares if they happen is hilarious. Even if there is a God, why are we so presumptuous to believe this God cares so much about our screwups?
