Bad things happen to good people? Good things happen to bad people? Why?

Question

Or Good is Bad and Bad is Good in actual; and maybe Judged wrongly? I am refering to 'Intentions'. As we never know if good actions also had good intention; and bad acts have bad intentions, either? What's this Riddle?

Most of the Rebels are victims of such response, and they said good bye to goodness, outrageously!!

Answer 1

It does seem to be a riddle, but I believe that science and religion are not mutually exclusive. Think of it this way: A man is walking down a country road, when, suddenly, a rock slips loose from the top of a hill, and rolls down--crushing him! Did the rock know whether or not he was a good man or a bad man? Did the rock INTEND to kill him? Was this a punishment from God?
It was physics, pure and simple. We want to think that we can somehow control everything around us, but we can't. We want to believe that, by being good, we will have "good luck," that the rock will miss us.
We tend to overlook the fact that we are a part of a greater system in which we are ALL--humans, animals, minerals--a part of a greater creation.
Another example is when we lose a close friend or a family member. We, as humans, tend to have guilty thoughts: "If only I hadn't asked him to stop at the store on the way home, he would never have been in that accident..." etc. Etc. We want to believe that we are somehow able to orchestrate our lives in ways that are absolutely beyond our power to do so.
Bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people because they do.
But, living a life with conscious good intentions makes all those moments that lead up to a falling, fated rock good and fulfilling.

We know from the study of quantum physics that all thought is vibration. You can have any experience you want because the universe say yes to what ever you focus on, not your words but your thoughts.. You are the creator or your own experience and what ever you think about and focus on good or bad you risk creating in your experience. So a person may not want to get robbed, for instance but if he is constantly thinking about safety he could attract the very thing he is pushing against. . Mostly people get a mixed bag of experiences because they do not think with the intention of being a deliberate creator.
the "Law of Attraction" states that which is liken unto itself is drawn.
Wise people have known this for centuries. "remember the monkeys from Buddhism(see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil?) Or Christ telling Christians to be like Babes when it comes to bad things?
In Ephesians it says "what ever things are true, what ever things are lovable, ...... keep considering these things.
King Solomon said there was nothing new under the sun. But sometimes we need to remember.
I would get the book: The Secret. It is the a very simple explanation of how we attraction what we think about.
Then I would look for "Ask and It is Given, by Ester Hicks.
It is as easy to create a castle as a button.

Answer 3

I think it's a perception thing. If you are thinking of a person, the events associated him that you would remember are the ones that stick out. In the case of a "bad" person, you might be unhappy if he has great fortune. However, when something bad happens, you don't really think anything of it. The same is true for people you percieve as "good." You remember when bad things happen to them, but don't notice as much when he gets what you feel he deserves.

Answer 4

Maybe because the King of All Creation, the Author of the Universe, the Prime Mover, the First Cause, the Great and Powerful Oz, -- scratch that last -- is nothing more than random chance.

Answer 5

Well, just like we never know if bad acts have bad intentions and good acts have good intentions, just like that we never know if good things are REALY happeing to bad people, or its just we think? Maybe its not for their betterment in real(in the end)?
And same as good people.......maybe what they have recieved is something good, its just they cant see that for sometime(for some reason) ! But..once a time comes when they say "THANK GOD" we were not given that bla bla we wished for, and got this instead!Phew!
Who says good bye to goodness lacks patience; success demands persistence, buddy!.
Got it?

Answer 6

Good things happen to all of us. Same goes with the bad, bad things happen to all of us. It's just you notice and pay attention more to the fact that some of us are rewarded or punished when it's not deserved. Stuff happens equally on average to everyone combined. Maybe some people have a bad luck charm or good luck charm that sides with them more then others. It's just one more of those facts of life.

Answer 7

Anger suppression, invention of the gun and property inheritance; Anger suppression stupefies and add religion and you have insipid positivity that shall kill to no end.

This 'riddle'' is good intentions are indiscernible from bad.


Indiscernible? Indiscernible? Is there an indiscernible here? I am looking for an indiscernible. Has anyone heard of this person.

Answer 8

I totally disagree with that statement!
bad people, bad actions, have a punishment as a natural consequence,. We might not see it from the outside, but I believe its inevitable! Good people, might not get rich and famous, but they have better and more peaceful lives.

Answer 9

Because blind, dumb luck has more to do with what happens to us than anything else; but we still have a lot to say about how we deal with it all, good and bad.
