[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read some of these and think, "who knew, some atheists give as little thought to nonbelief as some believers give to their belief." Of course God isn't delivering pants on sale to some woman you overheard, nor is he delivering games for Tebow. However, the question "[b]why do bad things happen to good people[/b]" is a serious issue that deserves a serious discussion, not this casual dismissal via some spurious analogy with some pants-wearing woman somewhere. Not sure DCUM is the place for serious discussion, however.[/quote]

I have asked that question before of believers and never received an adequate response. "God's plan" isn't cutting it for me. If God cared about life and love, why isn't he delivering a cure for malaria, cancer and other such terrible things? Seriously, it's like choosing to let millions of children within reach drown just because you can. That's not moral or just. It's seriously effed up!

Also, anyone who claims morality came from God should spend some time reading the Old Testament.  :shock:  There's a reason we don't follow so many of those rules anymore....our morality has evolved.
