I think suffering in of itself results in compassion and there is plenty of man made suffering to teach us compassion. Whereas God causing suffering results in the justification of murder, man made suffering is not in short supply why god decides to increase our suffering seems like OVERKILL. "otherwise existence is for no reason....the hard question is always WHY.. " ============================================== "The reason we exist " may indeed be a hard question for you but you must appreciate others do not have any problem in answering "WHY" and do not come to your rather negative conclusion, there are other reasons to exist without involving god or the afterlife. Theology is an attempt to explain the inconsistencies between god's nature and nature,the outcome is an immoral philosophy concerning the nature of our existence. Sorry I did not know others do not have any problem in answering "why"...care to share ? I do not know the nature of God...I do not know any inconsistency between Him and His creation...I know you don't share my view and I'm ok with it.... How do you know God loves everybody if you do not know the nature of God? If you do not know he loves everybody then no wonder you see no inconsistency. My personal answer to " why " i am here is to leave this planet and its inhabitants in no worse shape or in a little better shape than when i arrived. I am content to be but a humble contributor to the progress of humanity despite my status seeking primate genes.  |

My Stone Age logic tells me God loves everybody...His nature...only He knows...
Why you were created can only be explained by the creator.

Why you were created can only be explained by the creator. The question "Why was i created " presupposes a creator exists, i do not believe it exists. Sorry. |

New political party may make women multiply more and die doing it. They are proposing end of planned parenthood, use of contraceptives, absolutely no abortion for any reason no viable fetus, mother dying, nothing, then have to pay for a burials of fetus not matter at what stage.
The world is already overpopulated. Also they will make you have the baby, but you damn well better not be a poor woman and ask for help as they are cutting that too. Not a good time to be young and fertile in this country.
But they profess to be good Christians so I guess they know gods will. |
