re a kind and loving god in article apr ra royalroads ca mlee post royalroads ca malcolm lee wrote in article sandvik sandvik kent apple com sandvik newton apple com kent sandvik writes it seems faith is the only tool available for emotional purposes due to the tragedy as such it maybe fills a need however i m getting tired to see children dying in pain in sudan due to lack of food and assuming that god takes these sufferers to heaven after a painful death if the children are not being fed whose fault is that you and i have plenty of food on our tables while others starve why is that god gave us this earth to manage i don t think we re doing a very good job of it the only consolation i have for those suffering children is that they will be received into the kingdom of heaven where they will never thirst and never hunger again i agree with your points and i m glad to hear that you subscribe to the notion of secular humanism humans helping humans instead of hoping for a possible deux ex machina solution as for faith you could always use such constructs to dampen your anger or sorrow cheers kent sandvik newton apple com alink ksand private activities on the net
