Have you not observed the world and life as it is now lived by the majority. You see frustration, injustice and futility. Many hardworking people are, in effect, on a “treadmill,” and today no one knows what will happen next. not even government the rich ones, can do nothing to stave off old age and death. King Solomon observed this, and he said:
“I hated life, because the work that has been done under the sun was calamitous from my standpoint, for everything was vanity and a striving after wind. And I, even I, hated all my hard work at which I was working hard under the sun, that I would leave behind for the man who would come to be after me. And who is there knowing whether he will prove to be wise or foolish? Yet he will take control over all my hard work at which I worked hard and at which I showed wisdom under the sun. This too is vanity.”—Eccl. 2:17-19.

Religious belief has a lot to answer for IMO...I have no doubt that those men who voted to ban all abortions except those where the mothers life might be at risk and ensuring those that have been impregnated by rape and incest will have to endure a pregnancy would also claim to have a fairly solid christian belief...as isthe judge who let a preacher off who had been raping his daughter for a long time because he is a good christian.So much damage in this world in the name of religion...........perhaps they all have the same friends....!
