How much do Christians really believe?

[Watson]

When it comes to loved ones dying, yes, there's no real reason to be sad because the person is in a better place now and is waiting for you to come be with them. However, that doesn't stop us from missing them when they go. Christians celebrate what was shared in life with that person, and try not to focus on "they're dead now".

Mourn the living, not the dead.

So the earthquake was a gift from god?

I love this one. Heard it so many times.

Let God deal with death, that's his thing. You deal with life. That's your gift.
