Why should some people be born blind?

Why should some be born as vegetables?

Why should some be born with down syndrome, williams syndrome, etc?

Why should some 'good' people develop cancer . . without cause?

why should some be born with leukemia?

Why?

just thinking aloud

Because of sin.

Whose sin?

The sin of the world or that of the unborn child?

who deserves it?
Re: Why by maclatunji: 4:23pm On Oct 06, 2011
Because it is the will of the creator that they be such. It is like asking why do lions hunt Zebras when Zebras eat grass? Can't the Lions also live on grass?
Re: Why by kokoye(m): 4:44pm On Oct 06, 2011
Who deserves it.

Why are some allowed to be at peace and some wallow in pain for no just reason?

No one knows. But it sure does raise questions

'The wages of sin is death'

So why are some unborn kids condemmed to death before being born. . . and some actually sinners are able to plead and be forgiven??

Is cancer / down syndrome / cleft palate a wage of sin?

The sin of mankind. We're 'all' going to die BTW whether you die slow or fast, or young or old. What matters more is where we go after death. And to glorify God while we live here on earth, whether we spend 5years or 500years.

Animals are also born deformed, would you also attribute there condition to sin?

The sin of mankind. 

I never said anything about death by the way.

So why should some people be born able but some deformed.

why should some people develop cancer along the way (even while glorifying God) and have to deal with the pain?

Does the sin of mankind not apply to everyone?

Does the sin of mankind choose who to deal with?

_______

I know some may feel these questions should not be asked.

But . . .why cant they . . or why shouldnt they??

^Man's sin has paved way for sickness, death and pain in the world. I'm not referring to the particular individual who's sick's sin but mankind from Adam. And it affects all and any because we're all here together, man and animal. It's like someone burning something on your street or constructing a bad road. The consequence like catarrh or accident may affect others even ahead/aside the culprit.

So man's sin is also responsible for animal sickness, eh?. . .Interesting. . .I thought the same God is believed to heal sickness when people pray to him and ask for healing, why not do away with it in the first place?. .

Yes, man's sin has paved way for sickness, pain and death. In the new Heaven and earth, there'll be no more sickness or sorrow as was the original plan.
There are no miracles/healing of sickness in Heaven, it's here all those one is needed. That's why it baffles or saddens some of us when that's all some christians live/rejoice over. God heals when we pray but that's not primary. This world is condemned already, we're not repairing it. God's going to destroy it.

“Show me a population that is deeply religious, and I will show you a servile population, content with whips and chains, contumely and the gibbet, content to eat the bread of sorrow and drink the waters of affliction. The present condition of the Negroes of America is a touching bit of testimony to the truth of this assertion. Here in America the spirit of the Negro has been transformed by three centuries of subjection, physical and mental, so that they have even glorified the fact of subjection and subservience.”

Dogma numbs the brain!

Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.
Jobs

>>>>>especially when the dogma is just plain silly. Punishing helpless children with deformities because two people who didn't know better ate a fruit. Talk about mindless bunk.

@Op
S#@$ happens. Some of these things are man made but most are just nature being imperfect.

And your answer is that $ happens, and that we should not live on the results of other people's thinking? Your low self esteem and racism is appaling. i guess you personally thought up your computer and nl and transportation. The world is going to perish, only they that believe in Jesus would not perish but have everlasting life.

Why do righteous people suffer and evil people prosper to the extent of having more than enough? Why? There are answers to all" why"s. God said he will visit the iniquity from first Generation to the fourth Generation. What about curses? God cannot be explained with our limited brain. We need divine revelation to know the deep things about the mysteries surrouding us everyday. Do you know that trees praise God? Only the deep calleth into the deep. God bless you. God2man.

Aren't you just repeating what you have been indoctrinated with? How do you know that you are not going to end up in hell because you don't believe in Allah?. . . .

@frosbel  a man thinks that a woman was created from a man's rib and yet we have the same number of ribs,  says that he knows how we came into being. that we does not assume but knows without any shadow of doubt.

Yes, S#$% happens. I'm not going to go look up and make a list of all the known medical reasons and gene mutations that cause these deformities but they can easily be explained without recourse to your original sin dogma. Man made factors like illegal toxic waste disposal and other types of pollution also play huge roles. I don't know how you arrived at your low self esteem and racism conclusion but that's your opinion.

About the world perishing and Jesus Club being the only survivors, I'll let our esteemed muslim senior citizen Sweetnecta threaten you with muslim hell in due time. But if you keep threatening me with christian hell, I'll send Barney's evil twin to torment you.

Don't know what you mean by adam's apple but there's nothing fundamentally flawed when we notice that Adam was given charge/dominion of the whole earth AND every living thing in the earth. Something/someone doesn't need to know you to be affected by you. You go set fire on your street and see if it only burns your property and nothing else, then come talk about fundamental flaws, lecturer.
