Why Aids Babies, God Or Man's Will?

[flobadob]

Why do babies be born with AIDS and die quickly? Does God enjoy that?

[WyeDyed]

First, you have to accept the existence of God...

[Sipowicz]

Consequences!

[flobadob]

Maybe no one cares, except about grammar.

[naomi24]

If you believe God created everything, then it follows that, knowing full well what the effects would be, he also created disease.

[sandyRoe]

God doesn't concern himself with the minutiae of our lives.

[emmie]

nothing at all to do with God, and all to do with mankind, and by the way they don't all die, perhaps if they are born into poverty in some poor country, if they had better sexual health education, a ready supply of condoms and indeed better health care, they wouldn't die. Nothing to do with any so called deity.

Naomi, Naomi, Naomi. You make the schoolgirl error of forgetting the tree in the garden.
All ills and evils in the world stem from a momentary lapse approximately 6000 years ago and we deserve the lot cos we're naughty.
Except that guy on the Today programme, he's Naughtie.

/God doesn't concern himself with the minutiae of our lives. /
So what exactly can we get away with, without concerning god? Has the church issued a list of sins petty enough to not merit god's attention?

[sandyRoe]

This link explains petty sins far better than I ever could.

nothng to do with god. Its Darwins theory of survival of the fittest.

[flobadob]

Strange how God has nowt to do with the dying babies but everything to do with our cushy lives. According to some.

[Peter Pedant]

.

God has no power over evil
it is our free choice

honestly it will be; is there a God ? next

[naomi24]

Douglas, just one snag with that ..... he made the tree too. Guilty as charged. ;o)

[sandyRoe]

Cushy lives are more likely to be the gift a poisoned chalice from the Great Hornéd One. They lead us away from a life of righteousness.

[boxtops]

Babies are born with AIDS because their parents have it. There is a solution....

[mikey4444]

Gods don't exist, so question is pointless !

[keyplus90]

If you believe God exists then yes God created diseases as well as cure. God also forbids adultery, the main reason of spreading the disease, God also forbids alcohol and drugs, other reasons to go with the first reason, and finally Gods forbids people from putting other people’s lives in danger by any means possible, using dodgy equipment and needles is one of them.

Usually there are clear instructions about certain electrical equipments about not to use them in wet conditions. For example you must never use hair dryer while in the bath. However if you ignore the instructions and get electrocuted then do you blame the equipment or yourself?

// God doesn't concern himself with the minutiae of our lives. //

How about the minutiae of a baby's life, such as having aids and not long to live?

[flobadob]

mikey, Gods do exist for a lot of people, an awful lot actually. Boxtops, I'd love to know the solution, then we can pass it on to the UN. After that, world peace.

[Peter Pedant]

Why does God allow babies to die from AIDS ?

You are not the first to ask FLobby and certainly not the last to find that the explanations are .... lacking. Usually around Free Will and predestination

The alternative is to have the view of the bereaved father in Leicester, which is that it was God will that they die at that very moment and would have done so anyway. Standard Muslim view that I find a bit hard to take.

Do either of these disprove the existence of God ?
No I dont think so.
