Kolo to FK: I also think he sorrowed at other things and I firmly believe that, "Very often many things are said by the Holy Scriptures and in it many names are used not in a literal sense... those who have a mind understand this" +Isaac the Syrian, Homily 83 and "It is because fear edifies simpler people," +Basil the Great, That God is not the Cause of Evil

God does not delight in anyone's suffering. Right decisions are often painful ones. I told you, FK, numerous times before, that God is not the source of death. No one ever died from God.

Who said anything about God taking delight in any of this? :) But if no one ever died from God, then as I just posted to you, we have to scrap the entire OT.
