Why do good people write bad things?
So, i put this book "Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?" on my reading list. I'm about to remove it. The title caught my attention, the content didn't.
Well, you wanna know why bad things happen to good people? Because God is not in control of the world. That's why. Yeah, it turns out, according to the author, that God is not all powerful. God's just very kind. It's brilliant, honestly--brilliant the way he could sell 4 million copies of garbage. Brilliant the way he put the collective human consciousness on par precisely with the rest of the animal kingdom, whereas we might have once before enjoyed the distinction of being separated by intellect.
So, the reason dh and i are infertile is because God can't do anything about it. That's why? I find this explanation intellectually stupifying, emotionally stultifying, and spiritually stifling--not to mention offensive to God. Fortunately, God's all powerful, all good, and all forgiving.
But that is why i am taking this book off the links section of my blog, and I'm replacing it with "Healing Through The Shadow of Loss," by Deborah Morris Coryell. A far more satisfying read.
