[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was very agnostic for many years. Recently I have come to believe that perhaps God did have a plan.  When I look at all the truly awful things I went through in life and realize that I could only have gotten to this good place with wonderful children, etc. by taking that path.

I hope that you find peace.

But are you SURE you could only have gotten there on that path, and no other?  Other people seem to have gotten to a good place with very little struggle.  I know many people who've just breezed though life so far - decent upbringing, education, marriage, multiple children - without some big setback.  Am I to believe that God is just lying in wait, ready to throw something at them?  What is the point?  Why do some people suffer a lot and others very little?  I am aware that I have good things in my life and, I suppose, am grateful for them, but knowing that people starve to death all over this world every day just makes me feel the capriciousness of it all even more.  What did I do to "deserve" this and what did those people do to "deserve" a miserable existence?  [/quote]
