    Question 1: A 2-year-old child what a terrible sin he managed to commit and is punished with brain cancer;;;;;;2nd question: The Almighty is Benevolent and created the world because it has chosen to build and Evil;;; is perverse;;;question third: How many chances have Christians are right about the existence of God in the form of God-Christ etc.;;; Buddhists for example are more....they may be right....The construction of Gods - religions was and is man's need to give some explanation to everything he doesn't understand...they don't make sense...and what he fears!!The power of prayer is essentially the power of self-concentration..that is, the focus of the energy that each person has on a goal...Love seems to have the best -highest -strongest vibration-power of all emotions and that is why most religions prefer it as a basis...Finally all those who started some of the now prevailing religions have died many years ago and what they said has not been recorded verbatim nor do we have the luxury of we ask them questions….therefore everything applies with the same weight…Don't spoil yourself smile, love and joy!!!!

      First God did not make evil evil does not exist is like darkness darkness does not exist by itself is a lack of light so evil when we move away from the source of good which is god we become evil God counts with divine measures and value has eternal life near him and not the amount we will live on earth Y. (C). Miracles whether you like it or not we have only in Orthodoxy

    The 'nice' half-truth, it is a beautiful lie... Just because there is a lot of evil in the world does not mean that God is responsible. The result of all evil in the world comes from God, but from the devil and his own people, who as free beings chose to follow the path of evil consciously or not. The result of disobedience brought destruction, disease and death to mankind. God created perfection, the man who had the power and freedom of God and the responsibility of his actions chose another route. But God chose although the man the death road, let the magnificent opportunity to live eternally with Him, with the sacrifice of the only begotten Son of, a gift that human reason or the limits of love cannot fathom… God Himself became man and was tortured to death by His creature, so that His creature IF he accepts Christ's sacrifice can return forever to his Creator...And this is, It is a more complete truth.

      Without any trace of sterile confrontation, but in the spirit of dialogue, I ask you the following... Because according to your thinking, man chose the path of the devil and not of God, should the latter be punished ? Why would he make the world and put humanity through such a process... God is a punisher ?Friendly and without enmities my placement and with respect for your.

        Each man like you and me, daily chooses a path. Whether someone is an atheist, whether Christian would choose to do good or evil in various circumstances of life. But all these options have some consequences, as a result of our actions. As there are the laws of physics, there are spiritual laws. As human laws impart justice (and corresponding punishment) in 'any' violation or injustice, so it is with God in his spiritual laws. If you throw a watermelon from the window, will dissolve, due to gravity, with minimal effect, (just lost a watermelon and fouled the sidewalk). Similarly if you throw a child of this window will be injured and may be killed, with far greater consequences for the child, and for you, and for the child's family and this can extend as far as we can imagine... A justice should not be served;So, as the man in the system in which we live have laws, so God before they built the first court had adopted some spiritual laws that can not be changed. One of them is that God hates sin, and the wages of sin is death…God does not sit in a corner and play the punisher…God does not want our death, He does not want the death of the sinner, but wants to live, he loves us. That is why he sent Christ, so that whoever accepts Him in his life can be freed from his sin. But because there are spiritual laws, as natural and not changed, There are consequences to our actions. As you exploit gravity to roll something (Watermelon), so the devil takes advantage of the ignorance of the people and pushes them to sin knowing that so separates man from God, spoil their relationship and pushes the judgment of God, as the lack of repentance should be punished, because God is righteous, and as one day the devil will be punished (and knows), the people who did not accept God's great gift and followed the devil in their lives will also be punished... Many times you know, God does not hide behind a punishment, but he is the devil who wants the death of man and the destruction of. But God sets the limits and no one can cross them. The subject in general is big and maybe I became tiresome, You can easily find yourself all the answers to your questions in the New Testament and try God personally in your life, as I did...

          I respect your opinion and absolutely yes, the thing is actually great to sit and talk in a site also. These conversations are always interesting up close. It will only answer you is that I see myself as agnokisti. I do not believe in God, no support from the other that there is no. The truth is that I try to the good as far as I. And I think when you try for good, either you believe or not, the result will be positive. You call it 'God's work'. I greet you and be well.

            The truth is that the belief in God does not come from others, their knowledge or experiences, but true faith is a personal human experience with God Himself. The truth is that anyone who searches finds, and I am glad for your honesty n this small (healthy) dialogue. Na'sai well and you!

    not wrong if hypothetically there is heaven and hell. This shows vindictiveness and in this case the said well. . But God or the universal intelligence or field or I do not know what else, It is far superior to describe with words that surely governed by concord, and love that only few people have been able to feel the power of the media as Christ, Buddha, Krishna and that you understand that everything is all one and the same substance.
