And the bad die old. I’ve often thought about this. Maybe God is giving the bad as long as possible to change their ways before they ship themselves to Hell, but brings the good home when they are ready? Just a thought.

I am one that constantly wonders WHY Evil has such a long shelf life. I think you’ve solved the mystery for me! :)

You are correct. This world and our puny lifespan are nothing next to the World to Come. God does not bless with long life nor curse by cutting a life short. It is a test...THE test. Ginsberg, Soros and others have lived very long, perhaps given a long chance to turn away from the evil inclination. They will be judged, as will we all.

Note: some good people die old, too. My hunch is they’re stuck here taking care of others. And some bad people die young. Maybe God knows they won’t be redeemed so He boots them early to lessen the pain they can inflict.

In other words, die young does not mean good, and die old does not mean evil. But it sure does seem to happen that way a lot!
