its probly to do with the fact that if there is a god he, and he gave us free will. then he gave that asshole the chance to dance and have a happy life. regardless fo what god thinks and wants. same with the kid. then i suppose that defeats the point of praying for anything. ive often wondered why people should think that they know how to run the world better thne a supposed all knowing all seeing all powerfull being.

Can't think of anything good to say...

I guess people have to die of things other than old age to limit the overcrowding of the planet, but the fact that they have to suffer through slow poision or other painful deaths is another problem. Not only that, but the Earth is overcrowded as it is. It's a circle that I don't think there is a way to explain, and thats way I can't think of anything to say.

This is a bit far out, but may, just maybe, God does all this stuff to people because he doesn't exist!

Ever seen Pleasantville? Every single essay I've ever written about Perfection, I make a reference to that movie.
