Probably he killed the 2 cities because it was full of them. He did promise not to send world wide flood to cleanse the Earth. Abraham tried to save the city but there wasn't enough good people in there.

nobody killed anybody because of homosexuality- it's complicated, but please don't perpetuate that misunderstanding.

Everyone interprets the bible in their own way. It can mean what you want it to mean, and mean something entirely different to someone else.

I stopped believing in God after seeing some of the poor souls in hospitals I've worked in, despite having been brought up in the church.

I used to cry and think, God could make them better if only he wanted to.... but still he allowed them to suffer.

hasn't science kind of proven that "God" never created the earth?
Don't all the "holy wars" that have happened and still happen in the world suggest that religion is a farce?

Actually gbay - Science have proven that God created Earth. Things that scienctist said that don't believe in God does not fit the pattern of the Earth but what the Bible said, it fit the timeline and everything. I love reading Gensis Record!!! It is so awesome! I once wanted to be a scientist that do different testing to show more and more evidence of creation!

molly - not everything should be in the name of religion. Things that happen God allows it because we allow sin to control our lives. But the problem is nowaday people will say God is punishing you when it is not God or He is teaching you to become stronger.

Many of my trials made me strong and a better person!

I respect everyone's views on religion, even though I find this blog confusing,especially when it comes to commanding respect. I just do my best everyday to do good unto others, be forgiving (very hard to do at times) and just be compassionate and have empathy. It's not an easy task. And, nobody is perfect. I think our lives don't have to be trainwrecks, that no matter how hard life can be, I live it, trust me, to hold on and accept the lessons meant to be learned and never blame God. : ) That's my two cents. Hope everyone enjoys their evening.
