  1. Just explain to him suffering falls on the just and unjust, recently I had a friend ask me that big question too he said, "why do bad things happen to good people and I said there is none good you should be asking how come good things happen to bad people."

    Here is what I have been found so far to be the best scripture on the subject and that is deuteronomy 30:15-19

    This passage shows us that suffering is essential in developing a righteous character hope I have been a bit of help.

  2. Wow that is pretty neat I know we should not be suprised when we here of these things because it is God and does these things more often than we can imagine but it is just awesome to think of all the things he causes to happen so easily.

  3. I would like to know what exactly you think of when you hear the word respect.

    Also if you talk about it what points should be mentoned,

    and if you have heard any great stories on respect please share them.

    All advice and answers are truly appreciated, just wanted to hear other christians opinions on this matter, thanks.

  4. A friend of mine has told me something that I find very interesting. When people look for counterfeit money they don't study the counterfeit, they study the true money. Then they are able to spot the counterfeit immediately!!!! The lies these people saw were the lies of the counterfeiter......

    Thanks so much for saying that Jackie, you make a very good point!

  5. Why should it matter?I do not know how I would vote.. :thumbsup:

    I really am undecided on this...

    I can see how it is just a piece of cloth and sheer foolishness if people think I will get upset because they burn it...

    childish actions on their part... that does not hurt me...

    and I can see where it is also to be respected as when the flag that was used as a doormat for Saddam was removed from the door way when the Military took over his home.....

    None who respects this country will use the flag with any disrespect....

    I am anything but undecided on this matter. I think they should throw everyone in jail if they burn the flag and hit them with a heavy fine as well. What I'd really like to see, is all who burn the American flag deported and sent to China or one of the other communist nations. Whenever I see foreigners burning the American flag in street protests, I think about how I would love to get a hold of their nation's flag, set up my own demonstration, burn it and stop on it in the street somewhere in America, and send them footage to show on their news channels. My feeling is, if you don't love America leave it. Burning the flag is the ulitimate show of disrespect, not only to this nation, but to the many people who have defended it over the years.

    Yeah I have burned a flag before but it was done very respectively and was a torn up flag. We had a little funeral for it and played the national anthem and stuff.
