Let's get down to the nitty gritty about God and truth.

Christians are wrapped up in this scripture about God so
loving the world that he sacrificed His son. Did He
sacrifice His son because He loved the world or did He
sacrifice His son because it was wrong to put the sins
of His first two creations on everyone of His creations
thereafter. Would it be right that the everyone in the
world would be punished for what Tim McVeigh did? No.
And it's not right that every single baby that was ever
born or will ever be born should automatically be born
as sinners. How can God be a loving God and allow small
infants to suffer. How about the elderly with alzheimers
and other age related illnesses. The bible says that God
is not a respector of persons, meaning He does not show
favoritism. If some christians are walking around with
good health and prosperity and other aren't, that's favor-
itism. It's true some people deserve to suffer but small
infants and braindead elderly people do not. Christians don't want to talk about things like that or things like the contradictions that are in the bible. Why, because they
are affraid to face the truth that they've been dupped.
There are many wonderful things about God I believe that are 100% true. But no matter what the reasons for allowing the suffering and pain to continue, which is
what christians will say we have to wait until we get to
heaven to find out, there is no good reason. Any earthly
father that would stand by and allow his child to suffer
even though he had the power to do so would be considered
a disgusting father. I'll close with that.
