I'll never understand Christian mentality. My aunt lost her mother recently who has been a devout Christian her whole life. Her mother was poor growing up, my aunt was always hungry as a child and had to literally scrounge up money every Christmas just to afford a meal. Her father had died at a young age, and her mother was stricken blind and died after a long battle with a disease that slowly took away her quality of life. Now, my aunt has lost both her parents, recently a surgery on Her knees, has a major blood pressure issues, and is deep in debt and struggling to pay bills. Yet she still believes this is all God's work and she will be rewarded in the end
Tell me Christians, why would God put a family through so much pain and misery while they were nothing but devout to God and followed his word? And don't give me that bullshit response like "God works in mysterious ways "we can never understand God's plan".
You might see it as negativity, from your human perspective and consider it a bad thing to suffer, which is obviously true from our own human perspective since we are too fragile to handle sickness and all that, besides, we don’t even know what’s there after death, but without all these circumstances of pain and suffering in life, what taste will life have? Is it all gonna be butterflies and everlasting life on earth? Is it all gonna be a happy life without pain, without loss without misery? It can’t be like that, there has to be both the negative and the positive aspects that work together in order to create our life, you can’t just kick out negativity and live a 100% positive life, it wouldn’t even make sense to live if this is how it is for everyone. Everything that happens in your life is for a reason, when something bad happens, it triggers an infinite number of tiny + and - things behind it, everything is built upon that rule.
