I don’t watch Fox news anymore, and I never watch Hannity. I listen to him about 2-5 minutes a day, but that’s about all I can take. It’s the same thing over and over, like Rush. I used to listen to him also until the Elian Gonzales thing, then I stopped. Too much spittle and nastiness flying out of my radio speaker, and it’s always the same thing.

“Everything happens as God wants it to...otherwise, things would be different”

Do you know, that’s really not the way the bible tells it? It’s an extremely complicated issue, but for example 1Tim 2:4 “God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” - but all men do not come to the knowledge of the truth.

God does not micromanage this world. He gave that power to Adam in Genesis 1. He does respond to prayer, but as Christians, we don’t believe everything is the will of God. We believe he does intervene in response to seeking him.

Muslims believe everything is “inshallah” (the will of allah) and as a result they give almost nothing to charity and it leads to other negative aspects of their world.
