My thoughts also, and how does one bring about ' family planning ' for example in Africa.

I see wisdom is required, no person can judge anothers Faith in God.
Proverbs 4:7 "The beginning of wisdom is: Acquire wisdom; And with all your acquiring, get understanding".
Also no one knows another heart and how they see God, these passages gives humility to a son;

And the people
Who support the God or absurdity idea seem to believe I can't validate my reasoning, even in a nonspiritual or scriptural way, and I suppose that's what I don't get but it seems like I could be misinterpreting what they're saying.

Hi ryobi,
A fundamental teaching of Christianity is not to retaliate under provocation Read Matthew 5:39, 44,*45
Of course thats hard to do and we all get angry from time to time. Understanding the roots of anger is helpful in learning to control it. Is often the pressures of life that can...
I am rage incarnate... a gift from Ha-Satan that I must master, or will consume me in it's fiery glory... but oh the rewards are so great! and the rush so powerful!

What does the Bible say about anger?
Anger is not always sin. There is a type of anger of which the Bible approves, often called righteous indignation. God is angry (Psalm 7:11; Mark 3:5), and believers are commanded to be...
