Some of you really put yourselves on the highest of pedestals imagining you know this or that about god or that if there is a god it cares so much about you or your affairs.
The version of god you were almost certainly raised on is that of the bible, and that god is perhaps the most sadistic and demented creature in all of human literature.Suggestion:
Stop trying to impose your version of order on an incredibly complex world.
So many things that have perplexed us have at one time or another been attributed to the supernatural. Like mental illness - obviously evidence of the presence of some supernatural force.Don't be afraid to say I don't know. It doesn't hurt so bad.
