mollybaby: It is simply a way of explaining away something when the person has no rational explanation for it.
Yup, and as they (often) have no capacity for personal responsibility in their lives they look to balame a higher being ( and in so doing make victims of themselves also ? )
Trying to apply Human Rationale to a Higher Being (or system) rarely works ...
MAYBE - one of those who died in a horrific event would ( had they continued to live on ) have gone on to create some far greater atrocity ?
lookn2share: Somebody PLEASE enlighten me about the reasons behind atrocities. A person of faith ALWAYS says "HE HAS HIS REASONS". So when that boy killed those (26 ?) 5 and 6 year old school kids...did the almighty need some kids to till his garden or fetch things for him? When the 58 were murdered in Las Vegas recently...did he need some more cooks up there to prepare 'supper' for all the dying Christians, that are apparently suppose to sit around Gods dinner table...(oob/doob referenced too). What do you think he needs with the hundreds of thousands of people killed by a Nations demonic leader? I truly want to understand...if I can grasp this reasoning maybe I can become a believer as well. JUST MAKE IT MAKE SENSE TO US ALL!!!!

Kaybee50: Don't want to disagree pretty lady, but! Maybe you don't say that, but every single one other than you have shared that response. Thank you for not tearing me a new one!
Yes again you attempt to obscure that your question is contingent on the answer being in agreement with your accusatory views, rather than intelligence being a meeting of minds .Such a reach for you. Feigning ignorance regarding any comments is so arrogant and lazy that you would not need to reply to me except to have the last word of derision.Yawn. Play to your audience,no detractors are necessary. Your rebuttal, I expect is as futile as any definitive answer you would ever conjure of your own accord.Self-blame then your unresolved issue. No more Histrionics. Be resplendent in that.Instead of vexed, with your concept of God.
Comprehendible rebuttals are not what you seek. Your expectations have been exceeded by the responders. Unless.. your selection is biased.Then tut tut those agreers have no desire to enlighten you about death, or care to pacify your issues. No answers foreclosing.
"Tearing you a new one " is just another foregone conclusion. That list grows as long as your nose.

ashlander: If nothing else, you sure are persistent when trying to make a point...whatever that may be I know I am too ignorant to grasp what you convey.
Apparently you also have the ability to tell me what I do or don't seek...very impressive! Please stop wont you.
