Meanwhile....
Jesus watches children die of cancer and His dad still refuses to heal amputees.
Adults with imaginary friends are stupid. Really, really stupid.

Bingo
shareLife and death are in the power of our tongue. Jesus told us how healing works too, the ball is in our court now.
shareI'm dying of IPF, I'm a man of faith and I don't expect Jesus to cure me. Frankly, to condemn God for death seems at best shallow. Using a child and cancer displays a theology in which God is a puppet master or perhaps life is nothing but His version of Civilazation.
I believe that we have free will, and we live with the consequences of that free will. Even worse, we live with the consequences of others' free will. Thus people die of diseases caused by pollution, accidents or evil intentions like the gassing of the Kurds by ISIS.
I've had a great life, I am comfortably retired, but I guarantee that I would not wish this life for eternity. I'm still surprised by atheism, and why people would choose. It requires such great faith, and yet is so empty. Of course so many easiest c claim to be adherents of science, although when you discuss science with many, their knowledge is quite shallow. I'm astounded at how many have so little understanding of evolution, what intelligent design actually posits. I've heard Dr Sagan extolled countless times by people who have never heard about what current scientists say are the flaws in Dr. Sagan's position on life occurring on other planets.
I'm requesting help, I use an iPhone 6 to discuss issues on these forms, but if I write more than a few sentences I can't see them to edit or correct mistakes. There also doesn't seem to be a way to modify a post once it has been submitted. Since I dictate most entries, and Siri helpfully autocorrects them afterwards. I don't even see some of the ridiculous changes she makes. She's also biased against faith (she almost always changes it to face?)
Any hep or suggestions (other than not posting or shorter responses are welcome. ?) although a private message might be appropriate.
