Linda
I came across your website accidentilly while searching for
publications
through the U.S. Governement for my tax returns. I felt compelled
to
merely say (not that it will change your view in any way), that I
found
it to be full of hate. Regardless of what one believes in or doesn't
believe in the results of that should not promote hate. Maybe I live
in
a fantasy world believing this. But to spread hate for whatever
reason
serves no valid purpose. Yes, I agree that the events of September
were
very tragic and I was very much affected by the aftermath. I
would
never blame anyone (spiritually or otherwise) for those events except
for the perpetrators themselves. The philosphy is that God does
not
control us or our actions, he allows us our own free will with the
hope
that we will be "good doers" and follow a path to promote good
instead
of evil. He does not just mereley stop bad things from
happening (no
matter how tragic), he is not controlling in that way, just as a
parent
must let go at some point and let there children make their own
decisions. If God were a contolling God of only allowing good
then
don't you think that your web site would not exist? Just like he
did
not control what happened on Sept. 11th he does not control or strike
you dead to stop you and your preachings of hate. That is the kind
of
God he is.....I never understood why God got all the blame for the
bad
things that happen in the world....when a child dies......why does
God
let that happen??? You want to know what I think? I think that
the
Devil (being a fallen Angel) helps those tragic things to happen,
because he IS controlling and serves only evil. Then he lets God
take
the blame for it. Another thought I have is that what is so wrong
in
believing in God? God is good, isn't that a GOOD thing to believe
in?
Now, I am sure you woul dhave plenty of rebuttals and philosophy
about
all of this and I am not writing all of this to you to argue with you
about any of it. I really just wanted to express myself and maybe
give
you a little something to think about. Maybe something will happen
to
you in your life someday and you will remember some of the thoughts I
have expressed. If even for a fraction of a second you question your
own
philosophy on this subject then the time I have taken to write to you
has been well spent. Thank you for your time and I wish you and yours
a
life full of love, hope, and peace.
Sincerely,
Linda
