Answer 1

You should have thought of a question before you started typing.

Answer 2

So God is the cause for all this stuff and God takes great pleasure in allowing people to suffer? Do you not know there is a war going on..the war between good and evil..did you not know that satan is doing his darndest to get people to follow him and not God and that this now has to play out to the end in order for all the angels etc to see the full ramifications of sin so that there will never again be anyone who will do as satan first did in heaven..the reason he was thrown out in the first place?
Did you not read in the bible that God tried to eliminate all sin way before this..for example the flood and sodom and gomorrah..yet sin returned and now he must destroy everyone who does not accept Jesus and follow Him..but is giving everyone the time and the chance to learn of Him and make a decision?
I ask these things because if you had known about them then perhaps you would know what Gods plan is..and you would know that what is happening here on earth grieves Him badly. But it will all end. He will send his son Jesus to come and take those who truly love God and obey him..home.
Then God will answer all the still unanswered questions.
Believe and have faith.

Answer 3

I'm agnostic sorry. But If every thing was perfect, humans wouldn't have to work and try and understand why we want peace and what peace will be to us. Everybody has so many inner conflicts about what will make them happy in life it all seems to inter-vein everywhere and just increase the suffering that we all cause ourselves anyway. That's why I believe it is so important for everybody to be kind to people and show love and acceptance then if people started to let down their defenses maybe there would be more working together on the bigger problems like the Earth, (ha ha i mean global warming) or third world countries, or the unfair trade child laborers for our clothes, or cruelty to animals for our entertainment, we could be more in touch with our compassion if we were around people that showed it to us often.
The suffering is our fault not Gods, but then again when you think of something like the tsunami a couple of years ago, it can shake a belief.

Answer 4

I've had some pretty heart breaking things happen to me.
I had a rough childhood. My biological parents were so abusive that I had to be put in a foster home when I was four and a half. Thankfully, my foster parents adopted me. Good: that got my attention to God when I was younger, and now I have two families instead of one.

I was really, really depressed for two years. good: I now know what it is like and can have empathy for whenever someone tells my they are depressed on yahoo answers, or someone else if I ever get the chance.

I have Asperger's syndrome. This is a form of high functioning autism. good: some people say this is not a disability or disorder and some famous people might have had it http://en.allexperts.com/q/Autism-1010/positive-aspects-PDD-autism.htm and there are positive aspects to it http://www.aspirations.info/aspergerssyndrome.html
For me, the positive aspects are that I know Spanish which used to be my special interest, I treat people the same in my relationship no matter what their sex or age is, I am honest, and I tell it like it is.

Lastly, I had surgery for scoliosis. good: I learned to give my burdens to Jesus.

Answer 5

Here's how it works:

1) We all have free will
2) God does not control us
3) We can pray to God for ideas and to help manifest positive events and outcomes in our lives

The world is a difficult, violent, unfair place. We have to live in it, but by connecting to God, we have a way to deal with it, and make our lives, and the lives of other people, better.

Answer 6

I have faith that God is developing in each of us the character we need to solve the problems of the world through his son Jesus. Life is a journey and sometimes in travel there are road block, pot holes and wrecks. It is not up to me to determine what God should or should not do, he's God and I am not. It is up to me to decide how I will face the challenges ahead and I choose to do it through his Son, the Holy Spirit and God himself.
