I guess that would depend on what you mean by "decides."Defens0rFidei said:Is God the sovereign master of the universe that decides everything?

Our Lady, Exterminatrix of Heresies, Pray For Us
She sounds like a pest control specialist. But I guess to you, all us 'heretics' are pests.

don't mean to derail the thread, but I've never heard of Mary being called that, EVER.
BronxBriar said:Based on the context of DoF's signature I assume it means supreme exterminator of heresies. (But don't worry, I don't think that applies to us. After all this is CF...uniting ALL Christians as one body).

Care to define that for me?
God bless
all evil , wickedness and sin is in opposition to God , He permited it but only for reasons that are many times beyond us.Defens0rFidei said:Hey Ref-
Does He decide everything that happens to us in our lives? For example, I was reading on crimelibrary.com about a pair of serial killers that liked to kidnap young girls and rape/torture them in their van. I was also reading about one that kept a sex slave for 7 years of torture. (I know...not the best stuff to read about, but it got me wondering about God's control over events).
Personally I can't see God determining these things to happen to people, so I was wondering how it lines up with your beliefs.
Thanks!
