Some are just born into poverty and will never get out. Why waste the life of those unfortunate ones? Just so others can see how NOT to be? I just don't understand why there would be 12,000 plus deaths every year in Los Angeles due to gang related violence every year, if there was a "God". I'm sorry. Too much happens in the world and ends up un answered and we're supposed to just "go to God and he will find a way".....whatever.
Who thought of the idea of guns to hurt people? People created them, and not God. Why do we have such bad weather? It's because we pollute so much, and change the face of our civilization. Yes, we need rain, but not such violent stuff that our pollution is causing. Pollution is in chimney stacks, power plants, cars, buses, airplanes maybe, and so on. Why are some people born into poverty? It's because of money in which humans have created what money means. Why do people die in car accidents? It's because people were speeding, people impaired driving, conditions of the road, distraction of people, and so on. Why, blame God just because of no reason. Why do so people die in wars? It's people decided we need to fight for something, and they start hurting each other.
Why do planes crash? It's because usually of weather related stuff (Why are you flying so high up in the sky that you are close to such bad conditions?), drunk pilots, unexperienced pilots, slick runways, fog, of what not? Why do people get lung cancer or skin cancer? It's because they out in the sun too much, or they smoke? Who created the idea of smoking? Humans did.
God created the world in my opinion, and God created freewill. Don't blame God for the terrible things of the world, but rather blame humans for doing bad stuff as they have freewill. What's next, are you going to blame God for someone getting a concussion in football? And to me the point of life is that God is testing us for the next life. And I believe that God, Jesus, Mary will help us when they can, but some things you can't just change the fate? And the thing to me is when people die, us on earth look as it as a terrible thing, but really those people are going to a much better place. For heaven, I believe that souls go up to heaven, and I believe there is a reason for ghosts. If you believe in ghosts which I do, those are lost souls that never made it to heaven because they couldn't find the light so they are trapped in the middle world. They don't think they are dead so they do the exact same thing they were always doing.
I believe in angels too. On a Montel Williams show, I even seen someone photograph an angel when they were on a plane.
"I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
