It's all part of God's plan. If it's meant to be, it is.

That youngster reminds me of one I saw while bowhunting some years ago. We spotted 15 or 16 cows coming over a ridge toward us. They didn't come within range but turned and headed off in another direction. They were being trailed by a little raghorn that seemed mighty proud of himself. That little guy didn't have what it took to get all those cows. We figured he'd stolen them while the herd bull was fighting off another intruder. After 20 or 30 min, the herd came back and went back over the ridge in the same place they'd come from. This time they were being trailed by a big 6x6 and the raghorn was following along bawling his head off. That's more like it.

Cancer, infant mortality, pandemics, mass extinctions, and natural disasters are awesome? How much of these are caused by man having free will, except for natural disasters. So, you'd rather there was never any more storms, lightening, volcanoes? In the long run, those things dont destroy believers.

Nice video Jag, thanks for sharing.

Are you saying that there are things that your god didn't create and control?

So he's the one behind Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Idi Amin and the 30+ million murders they arranged,?

I think your questions are legitimate. I don’t think it’s wrong to question God. There are clearly occasions in the Bible where people asked God questions and He wasn’t angered or offended. For me though, there’s a difference between asking God questions and accusing Him of wrongdoing. I do understand why so many people struggle with questions such as these though.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Rocky I respect your views but do not understand the point of discussing God if you do not believe that there is a God .
