Question for the Christians posting.

I mean no disrespect as I was raised Catholic myself but I've started questioning a lot. I have a question that no one's ever been able to answer. If everything that happens is God's will, then why do innocent children die of cancer every day, why are they born with horrific birth defects, why would God want a child to suffer in this way? From a mom who's lived it first hand.

I remember reading somewhere in the bible that the land was cursed after Adam and Eve sinned and thorns and thistles are to now grow. It makes sense that diseases and other matters of suffering were created as well....

I admit as a Christian things like what you are describing did in fact trouble me. I cannot understand what goes through God's mind...He wants no one to suffer yet he created means of suffering? I don't think it's my place to question it...

@SW-User if you don't question things you have been brainwashed...assimilated. No free thinking anymore. A drone

I don't think it's my place...but it doesn't keep me from doing it anyway. Like a child who has to do what his parents say but deep down inside he has his own conscience and doubts.
