It's complicated and I will leave it at that.
(I am not discussing details here.)

Quote:and if not, how is your relationship with your parents?
My dad and I do not always see eye to eye, and my mother's english is rough, but better than my korean, so outside of pleasentries we do not discuss much.

Quote:Are they Christian as well?
My mom is. My dad considers himself to be 'Spiritual' without a deity.. (old hippy)

Quote:And specifically, If God's will is good, then all that happens is intrinsically good. It doesn't seem like anything can be intrinsically bad from your standpoint, because all that happens comes from God, no?
All is divine provenance. Meaning He set all things in motion and nothing Happens outside of His will.

I understand, but if it helps, I need not know any details. I only want to know if you have kids. It will give me an idea of whether or not you can know what it means to love something (other than God) more than yourself.

I was curious about your relationship with your parents, and whether or not you could know what it feels like to be loved by a human more than they love themselves.

I don't feel like you're giving me a sincere answer. It seems like you think you are avoiding walking into a trap. I've seen this type of response before, and know that you would have no problem bending an answer to make it fit your belief, but I would have bet anything that you believed that God is pure goodness. Is God pure goodness? Just be sincere in your response. It's not a loaded question. Yes or no?

Notice what your mind is doing right now when you prepare your answer to this question. If you were in Church, I don't think it would take you long to agree that God is pure goodness. What is your mind doing while you consider the answer to this very straight forward question?

Yes. People being stupid annoy me.

Time to grow up and put your fairy tales away.
