> went to the Gettysburg battlefield and stood there quietly.

Bless you. I go there every Summer on the bike. The killing makes no sense.

That said, I’d destroy every islam trying to destroy America.

What ever you believe, you believe. I don’t believe that at all.

I think you are right. I sometimes wish I could go back to being an 18 year old but not be as foolish. It is a miracle that I survived and I really mean that.

I once came so close to a non survivable accident that looking back, there is no way I should have dodged it but somehow at 110 mph, I did.

My parents would have had a fit if they knew how much I liked to race cars often racing long distances on public roads.

If I could go back would never do some of the things I did. An 18 year old thinks he will live forever.

Typical liberal response. You don’t know God.

Far better than you. Are you a professional Christian living off of donations to”god”? I’ll bet you are.

No you don’t - you clearly don’t.

Perhaps reading His Word some might enlighten you.

.....The driver of the bus, retired teacher Murray Barrett, and 11 passengers were killed at the scene. The other two passengers were taken by air to San Antonio hospitals, where one died later. The driver of the truck also was taken by air to a San Antonio hospital. His name wasn’t released......

Seatbelt or not, 80 year old bodies taking that kind of impact have a low chance of survival. It was likely just the fact that they were older and more frail overall. And that was a huge hit they took from that drunk illegal. (I’m just gonna go ahead and make a very high confidence prediction)

“his word” ? you mean the book assembled in 332 AD full of hearsay history and errors? Did you know that the new testament is 90% hearsay — no eye witness. Not admissible in a court in any civilized nation for evidence. Explain Matthew 1 vs Luke 3:23. YOU CAN”T do it!! It is a history book on the life of the Savior. That is it. Ponder this query. Did Jesus save you on the cross — or not?

“It begs the question if God is in control. It is my believe that God is very real and very removed from us.”

You raise the question of theodicy: The problem of reconciling the existence of evil with the concept of a loving God.

The world is a device that exists to allow us the opportunity to become worthy to spend eternity with God. For the device to function properly, it is necessary that bad things can happen to good people for no discernable reason.

I don’t know why it is necessary, but it is.

WLB was on to something, but he knew not what it was.

“The attempt to make God just in the eyes of ANY man will most likely lead to error...since no MAN is God.” thus quoth soycd.

He could have fallen asleep at the wheel, gone off on the berm which awakened him and he reacted, as is usually the case, very quickly which sent him careening right across the road. But notice how all the fatalities were on the bus. That’s because there are no seat belts. Thus they were all floating around in that bus, were ejected, or a combination of the two. Only one person on the bus survived, and the driver of the pickup, at least so far.

Witnesses reported, before the crash, that the driver of the truck was driving recklessly. They had called law enforcement, but the crash happened before he/she could be stopped.
