Why, why, why?

Hmm, Enrico, I would not presume that anything major happens when We die; instead, We pass ourselves on the most while We are alive as We interact with each other person-to-person.

Many people ask....why God can not heal amputees or why God does not help those in need?
In a way God act like a bank.
When you contract a debt with a bank you got to pay back the debt no matter how hard it will be for you.
You really can't go back to the bank and say..........I AM SUFFERING TOO MUCH PLEASE DON'T ASK ME TO PAY BACK MY DEBT.
Can the bank let him off?
Of course it can not otherwise it would go broke.
Considering that this universe is kept in balance by the positive and the negative or yin and yang then also God can not take off the "HOOK" anyone who go off balance.
Reincarnation is also a way to pay back the debts and allow the progress.
If you born in the physical sewer there is a reason for that and only after you experience the same pain and suffering that you caused to other in previous lives then you are free.
Even in physics there is the law that say that for every action there has got to be an equal reaction.
So if God would not act in this way the balance in this universe would be lost and the universe would not exist anymore.

For someone that claims to have this deep, "spiritual" knowledge, you sure are poor at demonstrating it. I rarely see so many words say so little.

BTW, can I see a copy of that contract I made?

As far as be a bastard you should put yourself in a situation in which for example your young and beautiful daughter get raped and killed.

Sure. Unless you're Lot.

Do you believe in an omnipotent god?

Never mind, I have the video.

Enrico, here is a show called Fullmetal Alchemist. You have some belief in god and equivalent exchange which You tie into Newton's Third Law of Motion.

Watch the first few episodes up to the end of the encounter with the holy man.

Indeed.

“What is the robbing of a bank compared to the founding of a bank?”

Wow... Babies born with serious defects deserve it... That's just fabulous! Though I can see how god would be like a bank... Greedy, unfeeling, slimy bastards... Maybe hedge fund manager instead of banker...

Baby born with serious defects or anyone who need help deserve our help.
God never said that we should not help anyone in need, on the contrary he would be glad to see our commitment.
As far as be a bastard you should put yourself in a situation in which for example your young and beautiful daughter get raped and killed.
What would you do if you could put your hands on the guy?
Would't you wish to castrate and hang him?
And what would you reply to those who call you a bastard as you call the one who make someone born with serious defects?
Can't you see that you would act even more harshly then God!!!

Wait... Why are people calling me a bastard again??
I didn't say babies born with birth defects were bastards. I said it was fabulous (sarcastically) that you think they're born with defects because of some past life transgression.
If I caught someone who abused my children, I don't know what I'd do... Perhaps I'd snap, perhaps I'd go catatonic, can't say...

If you have evidence that something more than the forces of nature exists, bring it.

And with that, this thread has justification for existing. Nice one, good sir.

You should read about the NDE experiences to know what happen when your body and your mind are totally off for sometime.
They reckon that that life is a lot more beautiful then this one on the earth dimension.

For someone that claims to have this deep, "spiritual" knowledge, you sure are poor at demonstrating it. I rarely see so many words say so little.

Can you demonstrate to me that you are in love with someone?
C'on show me!
Oh, physical love is not that difficult, the difficulties come when you go many step up and deal with spiritual love.
Do you follow?

BTW, can I see a copy of that contract I made?

It is automatic.
As soon as you engage in any action then you will have to expect a reaction.
Just imagine how many contracts you will have to sign in your entire life and those lives before that if at every action you would have to sign a contract.
Your hand would go numb in a short time after signing so many contract
Why whining about? It save you a lot of time.
