OT heartbreak

The following was forwarded to me by my son-in-law and as a dad and
grandfather I cannot help myself I am forwarding this every way I
can...please take a little time to help make this brave young girls wish
come true beyond even her dream....David




Riley Philpot is a 9 year old little girl who has been battling a rare form
of cancer since she was 6. Her cancer has returned and she is currently in
the hospital. Make A Wish Foundation was contacted and Riley's wish was not
a trip to Disney World. It is to have the mailman dump a bag of "a million"
Get Well cards at her door when she returns!! Please take the time to send
a Get Well card to Riley. Thank you so much! You do not have to know this
little girl to make this wish come true. If this was your child, and a
simple wish like this was asked, a stamp is not much. I hope that you smile
as you drop it in the mail. Please forward this to anyone who you think
will help this dream come true. I do not know when she will return from the
hospital, but let's attempt to have your card in the mail by October 16th.



Here is her name and address:

Riley Philpot

206 Slaney Loop Road

Winterville, NC 28590



And please keep her in your prayers as well.

This is indeed tragic. My heart goes out to her and her family.

I would caution against praying for Riley. God is already angry at
little Riley or is getting at a family member through her. If God cared
about little Riley she wouldn't be in the tragic situation she's in.
Better to let medical science and its practitioners do what they can
and not bring oneself to God's attention because he might decide to
punish anyone who appeals to him to help Riley. He has a long history
of punishing innocents when others have broken his arbitrary rules, and
for all we know he has a rule that says no one may pray for little
Riley.

He works in _very_ strange ways, does He not?

Note this is a least a second-hand request.

Such schemes were amongst the first internet spams. Send a card only if you
know her.

And please keep her in your prayers as well.
Now THAT is much more likely to do her good!

You liberal atheistic scum. Figures you would come in here with your
predictable response, you low life. Just because you don't get His word
doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't. IF you read a little more
between the lines, you'd discover that YOU are one of the reasons why this
girl and other people suffer. Atheism is a huge sin and no doubt only aids
in wrecking innocent lives and causing massive afflications. At least I
*know* where she's going if/ when the time comes, but of course you don't.
You can't ever keep your mouth shut for once, can you David (I won't
misspell your name to satisfy your perverted whim).

I'm sorry to hear this, and I apologize to you for my outburst to another
replier but I felt it was necessary.

I will indeed pray for this girl in the hope that, if it's God's will, she
makes a full recovery.

I feel sorry for someone who see "schemes" everywhere
a card sent without a return address profits how?

I will pray for god to open your heart

If it is God's will? You had to hedge, didn't you? That way if Little
Riley doesn't make a full recovery you can write it off as being God's
will that she does not.

How could it not be God's, or anyone's, will that little Riley be
healthy and happy?

Yet you must already know that it is God's will that Riley be gravely
ill, otherwise little Riley would be healthy and happy now, don'cha
think? Secular Humanists like me don't have the power to cause cancer,
or the vindictiveness of your God(s).

Sorry, but I'm going to continue to put my $ into cancer research.
Ignorance and superstition may rant and rave and hate and accuse, but
it never invented anything but myths, and it never cured anyone of
anything.

Everything done on this planet is according to God's will. It is either His
will that she is healed, or His will that she is not healed. Yes,
sometimes, in fact often times, the answer is not what we expected or
wanted. It is not a "write off" at all, it is all done according to His
will no matter what we pray.

How could it not be God's, or anyone's, will that little Riley be
healthy and happy?

It is His will in all cases.

Yet you must already know that it is God's will that Riley be gravely
ill, otherwise little Riley would be healthy and happy now, don'cha
think?

There is a purpose for her suffering, but no one might know what it is, only
God.

Secular Humanists like me don't have the power to cause cancer,

Well, by denying His existence, you open the door to sin in a very dramatic
way. This sin often has the ripple effect causing even the innocent to
suffer sometimes horribly. It is not God's doing, but man's.

This is exactly what God's adversary, Satan, wants you to do and you proudly
do it as well as so many others. Satan relies on logical thinking and
"proof" concepts to keep you under his control. This is not new and has
been going on since the beginning of mankind. It is quite easy not to
believe in anything, especially in this technological age we live in, but it
is extremely difficult to have a belief in God. The path to Heaven is a
difficult one, but it is not impossible especially if you see the fallacies
in man's thinking.

If I were you, I would pray for my soul, especially after many of the
atheistic comments I see you making here. It is not for me to judge where
you'll end up, however.

Uh, wait a minute! You just said:

If "everything done on this planet is according to God's will", then
how can "sin" be "not God's doing, but man's"?

If Davoud denies "His" (god's) existence, that must be part of "God's
will", right? Otherwise God would prevent Davoud from denying God's
existence.

Ignorance and superstition.

Oh good grief, what are you doing in a science discussion group?
"Satan"?! "Logical thinking" is a bad thing?!?

*The path to Heaven is a

The fallacies in one man's "thinking" (yours) could not be any
clearer.

God allowed Satan to tempt man at the very beginning of his existence and we
are living proof that we failed the test. It is God's will that man has
free will and therefore, because of that free will, we have the opportunity
to sin.

"If Davoud denies "His" (god's) existence, that must be part of "God's

existence."

Due to God's will, David (as well as the rest of us) has free will to
believe as he chooses. If man had not failed the initial test, then we
wouldn't be having this conversation because we would be seeing God on a
regular basis. Choosing the free will path meant that man would not have
the priviledge of seeing or detecting God until a person dies and only if
they have been good enough.

"Ignorance and superstition."

Same as I said to David: that is exactly what Satan and his followers (and
there are many on this planet who were cast out at the same time as him)
want you to believe thereby closing the pathway to God.

This is exactly what God's adversary, Satan, wants you to do and you
proudly
do it as well as so many others. Satan relies on logical thinking and
"proof" concepts to keep you under his control.

"Oh good grief, what are you doing in a science discussion group?
"Satan"?! "Logical thinking" is a bad thing?!?"

I never said that. I said that Satan relies on logical thinking to keep you
trapped. It is perfectly logical to have logical thinking without Satan
also. It isn't an absolute unless an individual makes it that way.

The path to Heaven is a
difficult one, but it is not impossible especially if you see the
fallacies
in man's thinking.

"The fallacies in one man's "thinking" (yours) could not be any

Depends on which side of the coin you are on. With the satanic/ atheistic
side, no doubt you see this.

"We've been attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of the
culture" said one christian.

No wonder with the amount of evil in the world today. There has never been
a time of greater evil and negative influence, so Christians must act
accordingly.
