I have a friend who you can say is "bad". She doesnt put effort into anything and she's a pothead/ alcholic. She is also a little promiscuous. Overall, she is a great person and she is my friend. I love her. Recently she got in a car accident where she was flown to the hospital and the passenger was dead at the scene. The passenger happened to be her mother. My question: How come horrible things happen to people who arent necessarily "good". God's punishment???

When she got in that accident, she made no bad choices....it just happened. I just don't understand why her of all people...because she's "bad"?

bad things happen to all ppl its not God's punishment so much as it is God's way of reminding us to believe and follow his ways...it sounds like ur friend has gone astray from God and he is just trying to get her back on the "good side" best of luck to your friend and her family i will keep them in my prayers

I don't know. Maybe they just don't make the right decisions. I guess you could call me bad, too, if I enjoy learning about hacking into people's computers. Nobody's really that "good," if you think about it. Everybody's at fault, but there's always a point in which you cross the line. Then it's really serious and you start to have to think about the consequences. The problem is, where do you draw the line? What seperates good people from bad people? Honestly, I don't know.

There are always consequences to our actions. It is a kind of universal law. If you drive around drunk and high, you may hit another person and kill them. Then you will go to jail. You can be nice or mean, but whatever you DO you must be prepared to live with. Not punishment, just bad choices and bad results.
God does not punish us, we were given free will, therefore we punish ourselves by making bad choices.

I don't know why bad things happen to "bad" people. Your friend made some very bad decisons and she needs to take responsibility for her actions. God is teaching her a lesson to make good decisons for herself and her loved ones. The fact that her mother was killed should open up her eyes. I'm sorry that this situation happened to her. Hopefully, she will stop being promiscious and smoking weed and drinking alcohol. It is up to her to straighten out her act. I hope I've answered your question. Good luck.

undesirable stuff happens to anybody, we purely tend to have faith it won't ensue to good human beings. in case you have faith that there is a God someplace to reward good strikes and to punish undesirable ones, your question is clever. faith tells us that the good pass to heaven and the undesirable pass to hell. actuality proofs that it is not particularly like that. So i think we would merely might desire to alter our ideals and comprehend that as much as a definite quantity we are masters of our destiny. The universe isn't purely. Society and each human beings might desire to and could take extra braveness in useful good strikes and make useful undesirable adult males do no longer get away with each and everything. something is contingency.
