Perhaps God allows suffering so that the human race can sustain themselves.
Thank you for this profound thought. (no sarcasm
)
You're welcome and thank you.
Here' the way I see it.
Some people can look at a situation and say "Nah.... that's not going to end well"
Others need to try it and either get hurt or hurt bad or get lucky..
In the end.. we learn from pain.. It's the great teacher.
One of my kids.. had to push it until the spanking... Soon he learned that when I said no.. it meant no and if he did not stop.. he got a little pain..
He is a fine young adult now.. great contributor to society.
Another... if spanked.. got angry.. He only needed to be talked to and explained why... Soon we learned that he didn't need the "negative reinforcement" that his brother did..
He.. is also a fine young adult and contributor to society.
The third, my daughter.. only had to be spoken to in a stern strong voice.. If I was not careful.. it would bring tears..
Also, a fine young adult and contributor to society..
Humans are all different... They need different levels of "negative reinforcement" to learn how to behave, respect, be safe and get along in this world.
Some... need years to think about it.. with no freedom.
Some.. are never going to change and do things that shows us that they cannot walk among us...ever.
People have been hurting each other since the beginning of time. The law is only half sufficient... we will always find ways to be awful to each other.
Yes.. we will.. But, that is no excuse for taking those that are terrible and have no respect or regard for the lives and safety of other humans... and letting them do it.
If these are caught.. it is our duty to end them when an action of enough severity deems it to be necessary...
It serves to protect the others who do respect and regard the life, liberty and freedom and pursuit of happiness of everyone else...
And.. it takes the financial burden of keeping them alive, caged and fed and away from everyone else..... while serving as a deterrent to others like them.
You're right. Man's justice system has failed man. God will redeem.[/QUOTE]
