That is great if we are relying on random luck rather than an intelligent, all-powerful being. <br /><br />However, if there is a god and he is willing to jump in halfway through the shooting then we have to ask why he wouldn't jump in earlier, say on the first bullet, as opposed to the 50th. I think that we would all agree that if god only made holmes's gun jam on the last bullet that this would be a pretty useless excuse for a miracle. It would be like only parting the Red Sea half way. Gee, thanks a lot, God. <br /><br />Why are we here? Because things had to be somehow. Otherwise things would have been different. If you hadn't been born then your parents might have had a different child with different experiences. I am plenty positive about life in this sense. Out of the many possibilities, it just so happens that the one that happened contains us. That's a great thing (for us).aaronchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634491636884347224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3449044056531483603.post-62085022470740268062012-07-30T16:11:35.381-07:002012-07-30T16:11:35.381-07:00I understand where you are coming from, though I a...I understand where you are coming from, though I am religious, it can go both ways. At least look on the bright side that his GUN did jam and the neighbor didn't walk into the apartment. Whether you believe in God or not. At least be thankful that more didn't die. Don't go and find reasons to oppose GOD though. There's a "but" to every thing in life. I believe in GOD with all means, though we all ask WHY?. Why are we here? How where we created? But don't wrong people with strong beliefs in GOD. Id rather be around a person who thinks positive than a pessimistic person who looks for the wrong answer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
