   The Scriptures above are full of wisdom, but you are slanting them in   
   a direction they are not. You are implying God CAUSES suffering, like   
   cancer children, deformed births, poverty, etc, etc. You don't know   
   the Bible God very well.   
      
   If you want to know the real reason why God permits suffering, see my   
   latest posting.
