I look at a sunset and realize that the sun is going to burn out one day or that a comet can hit the earth and obliterate us. I smile at a deformed toddler, screaming in pain, because I know that when I celebrated the birth of a child without the birth defect as coming from 'God', I have to give him credit for this too. Isn't God wonderful?

And did you know that the number one reason for mental retardation in the US is because pregnant mothers consumed alcohol?
And did you know that God said He would curse several generations for certain sins?
Everything we do has a consequence.
It's karma.

All the problems of death, sin and suffering get thrown back to the concept of a loving God. This is not what happens because of a loving God; but because we live in a world which is separated from love and denies the power of God.
It would further help to understand that love is not something that God does or hands out or passes around. Love is what God is. Every deformity and perversion of truth in this world; is a deformity and perversion of God's original, perfect and good creation.
None of these evils come.down from the father of lights; for God is the author of every good and perfect gift. I wouldn't let the god of this world put a smile on my face.

You're being sarcastic, I see. Someone's in a bad mood. Or tell me I misread things...
You sound like you're just searching for reasons not to like Him: the sun is going to burn out one day... Come on, dude! You won't be here. Why do you care? That hasn't happened. And who knows? It may never happen. You hate God for this reason?
True, some kids are born deformed. Sometimes they are born that way b/c their PARENTS did drugs or were otherwise responsible - HIV infected or crack addicted babies. Human error is to blame for a lot. You blame God for this?
Well, the next time you do something wrong - yes, evil, I mean - will you blame God for that too? And don't tell me you do no evil. Never lied? Cheated on a GF? Stolen something? Gotten high? Hit someone? Even skipped class? You name it, we ALL do wrong. Is God to blame?
Adam and Eve brought sin into the world. Fine, you can think their a fantasy if you want. But you have no less reason to believe in them than you do God Himself.
And you DO sound like you believe in Him, you just don't like, trust or agree with Him.

I wonder at the patience of God who having given mankind the entire earth and blessings asked only for obedience and love warning man that sin must be punished with death. It is man that rebelled and continues to rebel yet the end has not come. God owes no man anything but judgment yet continues to wait and proclaim the day of grace giving sinners a way of salvation from the death sentence. And if that's not enough He even sent His Son to bear the death penalty for all who repent and believe in Him. Why? Because He so loved the world.

God doesn't cause bad things to happen. But, he does allow it for now. We don't know what the reason is but we are supposed to have faith that in the ultimate end, everything will work out for good. There is an opposing force at work on this planet. No one creates to destroy. Read the Book of Job in the Old Testament. Evil is a divine mystery. We are not to question God.

Don't mock God please...we all face different challenges in life and bad stuff happens. In the end is when it pays off...endure to the end. I can't and won't preach cuz I'm a very limited human being, but is not God all-knowing??? He knows what's best for us even if we don't and it seems like it's not to us...Try and think from that perspective for a few minutes and see what you come up with.

O you, who are blaming the world, who have been allured and enticed by it, and have been tempted by its false pretenses. You allowed yourself to be enamored of, to be captivated by it and then you accuse and blame it. Have you any reason or right to accuse it and to call it a sinner and seducer? Or is the world not justified in calling you a wicked knave and a sinning hypocrite? When did it make you lose your intelli- gence and reasoning? And how did it cheat you or snake false pretenses to you? Did it conceal from you the fact of the ultimate end of everything that it holds, the fact of the sway of death, decay and destruction in its domain? Did it keep you in the dark about the fate of your fore- fathers and their final abode under the earth? Did it keep the resting-place of your mothers a secret from you? Do you not know that they have returned to dust? Many a time you must have attended the sick persons and many of them you must have seen beyond the scope of medicine. Neither the science of healing nor could your nursing and attendance nor your prayers and weeping prolonged the span of their lives, and they died. You were anxious for them, you procured the best medical aid, you gathered famous physicians and provided best - medicines for them. Death could not be held back and life could not be pro- longed. In this drama and in this tragedy did the world not present you with a lesson and a moral?

I am glad to see that you are willing to blame God for all the world's problems...most of the birth defects are caused by man's pollution of the planet...
Aren't humans ignorant?
