If God is good, kind and just, why did He create this misery-laden world for His children to live in? How come He allows war, torture, mass starvation and ecological atrocities? Why is nature itself cruelly balanced by the "law of the jungle"? Did God create all this misery out of a sense o ...

Occasionally, a school chum would ask me to visit his church, and when I did so, the teacher would ...

Why does God classify some actions as wrong and others as right? Why is it wrong to commit sin? Did God just arbitrarily decide that some actions would be classed as sin? Did He say to Himself: "We've got to have some things that are wrong, so I'll just choose some nice, tantalizing, excit ...
