I have been hungry, no food for days. I've had so little money that I've had the electricity turned off, no fuel in the car, no way to get to work on a hot Summer day.

I've had my trials and I will continue to have them. Yet I have no reason to curse God, He has always provided.

Like I said, your experiences are trivial in comparison to the 3 million killed by Pol Pot, the people starving to death every day through out the world, the people like Mandela who were imprisoned in labor camps for 27 years, the families who are pulled out of their houses my military troops and summarily executed in the street.....

I have no reason to curse god either. I would be a fool to curse something I do not believe exists.
