Ezk 20:14 “Now, that evil son might also have a son. But this son sees the bad things his father did, and he refuses to live as his father did. He treats people fairly. 15 He does not go to the mountains and eat foods offered to false gods. He does not pray to filthy idols in Israel. He does not commit the sin of adultery with his neighbor’s wife. 16 He does not take advantage of people. If someone borrows money from him, the good son takes something of value and then gives the other person the money. When that person pays him back, the good son gives back what he took. The good son gives food to hungry people, and he gives clothes to those who need them. 17 He helps the poor. If people want to borrow money, the good son lends them the money, and he does not charge interest on the loan. He obeys my laws and follows them. He will not be put to death for his father’s sins. The good son will live. 18 The father hurts people and steals things. He never does anything good for my people! He will die because of his own sins.
19 “You might ask, ‘Why will the son not be punished for his father’s sins?’ The reason is that the son was fair and did good things. He very carefully obeyed my laws, so he will live. 20 The one who sins is the one who will be put to death. A son will not be punished for his father’s sins, and a father will not be punished for his son’s sins. A good man’s goodness belongs to him alone, and a bad man’s evil belongs to him alone.
Quote:funny how begats get complicated over the centuries, perhaps the dead kids are Amelekites and god is living up to his promise in wiping them out, albeit, very slowly.-or one may see humor in someone who clearly doesn't know what he is talking about.
Quote:all these dead kids are descended from Adam and Eve and original sin is all the reason God needs to off somebody in a tortuously painful bout of lifetime disease and famine
-or Orginal sin is not a biblicaly based concept.
Quote:God is doing another Job job on somebody and is offing all these kids to test someone else's faith-Or you could just be a bad steward, who blames the position of relitive wealth and responsiblity you have been given, on the one who gave it to you, rather than doing your job..
