For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16).
That's very heartwarming but....
He also loved the world so much, that he gave us cancer, malaria, influenza, dementia, whooping cough, measles, polio, motor neurone disease and gangrene.
He loved us so much, he gave us tapeworm, and other parasites which invade human bodies and slowly destroy organs.
He gave us funnel-web spiders, rats, cats, and other urban pests, such as Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons.
He gave us floods, hurricanes, tornados, famines, hail storms, earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, avalanches, lightning strikes, heatwaves, blizzards, bush fires, house fires and global warming.
He gave us plane crashes, road accidents, ferry boat boat capsizings, crop failures, enviromental disasters.
He gave us priests who use their god-given authority to abuse, fondle, attack, rape and circumcise children.
He gave us murderers, paedophiles, rapists, thugs, fraudsters, embezzlers, thieves and scammers.
He gave us flies, wasps, mosquitoes, cockroaches and maggots.
He gave us homophobia, racism, mysogeny, child abuse, slavery, violence, discrimination, dictators, greed,dishonesty and the holocaust.
He gave me personally: kidney stones, pneumonia, influenza, german measles, short sightedness, hearing disability, tooth ache, bronchitis, sinusititis, dodgy hips, an ingrowing toenail and over a hundred common colds.
Worst of all, he gave us world-wide irrationality, violence, corruption and cruelty in the form of zealous Christianity, Islamism, Judaism, Hinduism and those blasted Jehova's Witnesses who keep invading my front door.
God is incredible!
