Re: [asa] Two questions... (bottlenecking)

Dick,

Its a very good question. Does God allow us to be born even though He
knows something horrible will affect our lives and make us miserable.
Its the "problem of pain" all over again.
Did God cause all this pain? If so, is He still good? Seems to me
this question is something we all have to deal with.

If God allows pain is He good. If by allowing it He causes it, is He
still good? Terrible questions, aren't they?
