[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The actions of people cannot shake my faith in God. I believe God is all powerful and all knowing. Bad things happen in every generation and this is our test to rise up against the evil in this world. When I see people hurting, it doesn’t make me mad at God, it makes me want to follow His advice and be a better person. I believe that Satan  confuses people and erodes their faith. It’s easy to accept God in good times, but true faith will accept God in difficult times as well. God gave us free will to choose our actions.[/quote]

You have just stated that you can't be persuaded by evidence.

This is a virtue?[/quote]

There is lots of evidence for God and Jesus and the resurrection, but PP didn't opine on evidence one way or the other. Also the question was simply whether current circumstances cause you to lose faith.

They don't because hope is not in Donald Trump or lack of Donald Trump or wars/horrible things or lack of wars/horrible things. Hope for the world is in Jesus Christ who never changes.[/quote]

No, pp said things he observes - "[i]the actions of people[/i]" cannot "[i]shake[/i]" his faith.  I ask again: is that is a virtue?

Shouldn't everyone be open to having their mind changed by things you observe? Shouldn't someone be able to say WHY the evidence is insufficient to change their mind instead of just saying that it "cannot"?

/and your claim that "[i]There is lots of evidence for God and Jesus and the resurrection[/i]" is irrelevant to my point so I am not addressing that on purpose so as not to derail.  [/quote]
