thats, sorry for the insult, an incredably ignorant statement to make. it is not the only one offered. you may feel that way but i invite you to walk into a library any time you like and read several different answers to the question at hand. dont think for a second that your brand of christianity (whatever it may be) is the answer for everyone.

there are several reasons people like me refuse to accept that as an answer. most of it has to do with the illiogical explination of god. what god would preach acceptance of such suffering? what god would preach such injustice as hell? what god would demand subordination to himself, but fail to offer any proof of their existence? etc etc etc.
that and i refuse to avoid, indeed sacrifice, the joys of this world for the promise of the possibility of another one beyond it.
