Is this beautiful?

Girl of sixteen
Whole life ahead of her
Slashed her wrists
Didn't succeed
Thank the Lord
For small mercies

Fighting back the tears
Mother reads the note again
Sixteen candles
Burn in her mind
She takes the blame
It's always the same
She goes down on her knees
And prays

I don't want to start
Any blasphemous rumors
But I think that God's got
A sick sense of humor
And when I die
I expect to find
Him laughing

Girl of eighteen
Fell in love with everything
Found new life
In Jesus Christ
Hit by a car
Ended up
On a life-support machine

Summer's day
As she passed away
Birds were singing
In the summer sky
Then, came the rain
And, once again
A tear fell
From her mother's eye


And after reading that, I can´t help thinking..
How can there be a god?

well..this is just my belief

but God doesn't do those things to us
I believe God has no influence on our deaths and how it ends..

I believe he's waiting for us to come to him so he can take care of us

that's all
just my 2 cents

You may not understand it now, but God has a plan for each and every one of us. There is a reason...as there is behind everything that has ever happenned, and ever will happen.
We has everything set for us. We may not understand, but perhaps we are not intended to understand yet...but some day we will...he is preparing a place each and every one of us the home of eternal peace and happiness.

We need only to trust in the power of God almighty, and place ourselves in his care. As you would care about your lost puppy, so does he for all of us.

There's a real good, angsty furry comic named "Jack" that explained something well...

A lil kid wrote on the blackboard,

"Dear God,
why don't you stop war, and kids killing kids, and hunger?
- Timmy Roberts"



An angel wrote back,

"Dear Timmy Roberts,
why should I stop people from doing something, when they are perfectly capable of stopping themselves?
- God"

This world is what we make it, and nothing that has gone wrong is God's fault.

I'm not sure I believe that God is almighty. If he indeed isn't, it sure explains a lot.

Depeche Mode, wasn't it?

I prefer 'God, show me magic' by the Super Furry Animals myself.  Slightly less depressing!

If God has a 'plan' for all of us, does that mean we don't have free will?

You don't need to answer that, I don't believe in the big guy myself - seems a bit daft to me.  Not worth starting a flame war over at any rate.

Philsophers have been dicussing the subject for thousands of years, coming up with cosmological, ontological and teleological arguements in an attempt to prove that god does or doesn't exist.  Nothing has been conclusively proved one way or the other.

I prefer to remain optimistic agnostic

...I like neither these political or religious discussions some of you just adore...

...you like something and believe it, then be happy about it...noboby is justifiably more correct than another...just leave it be...

...I think what I want, and I truly doubt you'll change my mind...I'll let you know what I believe, and you can try as you wish...

Okay you, try this one on for size.

Dear Mr. Jesus
I just had to write to you
Something really scared me
When I saw it on the news
A story about a little girl
beaten black and blue
Jesus, thought I'd take this right to you

Dear Mr. Jesus
I don't understand
Why they took her mom and dad away
I know that they don't mean to hit
with wild and angry hands
Tell them just how big they are I pray
<Chorus>
Please don't let them hurt your children
We need love and shelter from the storm
Please don't let them hurt your children
Won't you keep us safe and warm

Dear Mr. Jesus
They say that she may die
Oh I hope the doctors stop the pain
I know that you could save her
And take her up to the sky
So she would never have to hurt again
<Chorus>

Dear Mr. Jesus
Please tell me what to do
And please don't tell my daddy
But my mommy hits me too
<Chorus>


A nine year old girl by the name of Sharon Batts sang this song some 17 years ago.  It gets me every time....
