Seriously, you did not get that lil' sprouts are children who are punished if they do not conform to religious dogma ?
I did not know this happened.

This is what happens when you either do not know what the bible says about this or ignore it.
We are not Children of God, not from birth anyway. (No one is born a child of God, we must A/S/K for that honor.) God created Adam, then from Adam Eve. We Are the offspring of those in whom He created.
Christ in Mat 13 Call us Seed:24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
So you see we are seed some God planted, and others were planted by God's enemy. Some grow into wheat, and other's weeds. What gardner does not hate weeds? But as the parable says both are allowed to grow together till the harvest (Our death) then they will be seperated.
Only God know who is wheat and who is weed. We sometimes surround ourselves with so much weedieness we forget that at heart we have the potential to produce the wheat God is looking for. In the end Wheat is what God is looking for. Not everything that grows in the field is wheat.
Except crabgrass can't a/s/k to be a rose bush.
But how does crab grass know he/she is indeed crabgrass, unless she A/S/Ks?
