The old testament should give a good reason why.

Does this fall into the category of "why do bad things happen to good people"?  I understand your question completely and have asked that same question myself.  In time you come to accept what happens, good and bad, as out of your hands.  Everything in life is a lesson and we just have to try to see what it is that God is trying to get us to learn.  I don't question God's wisdom, I just ask him to help me see what it is he trying to teach me.  Maybe those people who cannot have children are there to make a home for those children who do not have parents.  Trust in God's wisdom, his will is always done.  Accept what he gives you and learn from it.  This may not answer your question, but it is the best explanation I can give you.

These people dont know sh!t! No body knows, so they cant solicit advice about something they have no clue about. Its all based on speculation and assumption. No body knows for certain, but its what you want to believe. No body knows if god really exists, but almost all the world believes in him. Find out for yourself rather than asking these ignorant folks on yahoo. And while your at it... maybe take a spelling lesson or two. G-H-O-S-T ... you typically learn that in 2nd grade.

Dear Brown Sugar...My dear, stop listening to the ignorant rantings of a few...it's not "cool" to get on your knees and pray to our Creator who ALLOWS us to breathe and live! Everyone wants some "sign"--perhaps a note on their pillow at night saying,"HEY! I'M GOD! I'M REAL! WON'T YOU BELIEVE ME???" GOD ALMIGHTY has GIVEN US PROOF! Look around you! Do people really believe the magnificent Human Body just happened on it's own? The Brain just FORMED ON IT'S OWN? Yeah, right...and my car just assembled itself--no maker, it just came together out on the road--you would think I was crazy!!! What about the STARS,MOONS, AND SUNS? AN ACCIDENT OF STUPID NATURE? PLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEE!!! I think we are a bit more intelligent than that--at least I do! Of course, there is another being who loves you to keep on having no hope for your life...and he is very clever in disguising himself as a "god". Demons are real, too....and they have many believing life is hopeless and going nowhere. But I tell you now YOU MATTER! What you do in this life DOES have consequences! But they don't have to be BAD! GOD WANTS TO GIVE YOU AND ME THE UNIVERSE!!! That is the absolute truth!!! But He won't give it to rebellious,hateful,disobedient people! He's ALREADY BEEN THROUGH THAT WITH SATAN!

First, don't dwell on the negatives in life. There are so many little blessings in life that so many people overlook. I am also a Christian, so I also have the comfort that God is control, and He makes no mistakes. God gives us trials in our lives to draw us closer to Him, and God would not give us a trial that we do not have the strength to overcome. Hang in there, and just look on the better side of life.

I don't know, I don't get it either. What's the big deal? There are a lot of things people like to complain about I guess, and God is one of them. It's sad.

What the Bible means to me is that Jesus is our Lord and God is our God and we will be saved in the end if we ask for forgiveness for our wrong-doings. God doesn't expect us to be perfect but he DOES expect us to try do our best for other humans and he expects us to love him above everyone, even your parents, siblings. I was shocked when my mom said she loved God more than she loved me, her daughter. I didn't know it was possible to love someone that much.....like how much I love my family. But I guess that's the "law" and I need to "get over it" and learn that God is above all others, etc...and that way he will gladly take me with him  to the gates of heaven. You asked. I answered.

man, i feel bad for you. you're playing on the wrong team. God is so real. it seems like everyday he's proving himself (to me anyway). i mean there are times i look back and it could have only been God that got me through. God gives me peace, protection, and he is a great provider. My first year in college I didn't have a job or a dime to my name, but God made a way for me. He made is so that I was never hungry, and that I never wanted for anything. to you God might be an "invisible friend" but for me he is my best friend. the bible is a guide that tells us how to live. and if people live right they dont have to fear God. he gave his only son for us, do you really think that he wants to destroy us? to cripple us with fear? No, thats not him, he is loving. I'm sorry if you feel that God has failed you, or that he's not real, because you're missing out.

If people misunderstand or misrepresent the character of God, does that make Him any less God? Is He no longer the creator because Darwin says He isn't. Is God no longer all powerful because He gives people the freedom of choice? If God is misrepresented as being unjust, unkind, hateful, vengeful, a terrrible tyrant, do these accusations make it so? God's ways are above our ways, His thoughts are above our thoughts. Mankind can not even begin to understand the mind of God or His reasons for acting in some situations and not acting in others. God gives us enough information about Himself in nature, in the Bible, and in the daily life to come to a knowledge of Him that leads to trust in His wisdom even when it conflicts with ours.

all christians are "bad" because we are all sinners. But God loves and forgives us. There should be no judgement among christians.

God's love is unfathomable to us humans.  God's mind is infinite and ours is finite.  There's no way we can understand why He loves us so much.

Because God doesn't exist. And everyone suffers sometimes, it's part of life!

God says He's a jealous God and I imagine He knows more about Himself than I do.\n\nConsider this: God is supreme.  He is GOD.  He wasn't invented by man, or He wouldn't be God.  He is all-knowing when we obviously aren't.  He's all-powerful when we obviously aren't.  He has always existed when we obviously were born not all that long ago.  He is holy and we definitely aren't.  He is GOD and is infinitely more awe-inspiring than we are.  Basically, He is worthy of praise.  He deserves it.  Just like kings and royalty get respect, He should get just as much and more.  He created us, we didn't make ourselves.  So imagine all that; imagine what the word "God" infers.\n\nAnd then read Exodus 20:2-5: "'Iam the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.  You shall have no other gods before Me.  You shall not make for yourself a carved image...you shall not bow down to them nor serve them.  For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God...."  \n\nIf God is really God, He has some claims on us.  Because we are not God.  We are His creation.  And one of those claims He has on us is that we worship His awesomeness.  I mean, imagine your favorite singer, actor, writer, athlete, and then imagine you trying to tell the media that, no, YOU are better than this person when obviously you stink next to their talent!  That is how we act as humans most of the time.  We don't give God His due.  And He has a right to be jealous.  Don't know if that answers your question, but that kind of jealousy is righteous.  Ours is petty.

THat is a very good question and it makes me very mad when people blame God for things that go wrong.  It's like people dont ever give God the time of day and then when something goes wrong they suddenly start saying how it is God's fault.  God is all good and everything he does is for reason and our sins bring much pain on us humans.  Job 1:22 says "Do not charge God with wrong doing."

Hi, I don't believe God is a punishing God.  He is a loving God and loves us unconditionally.  I think we do the punishing by feeling guilty for criticizing others and not feeling good about ourselves.  When we are happy, content and feel good about ourselves we don't judge or criticize others.

God will love you no matter what you decide to call him/her.  Sometimes I have a problem with the name God, not because of GOD - but because of what some people have done in the name of God.  The name becomes twisted and that's a shame.
