Arguing about why bad things happen to good people.

Folks that know me know that I like to laugh. I enjoy a hearing people laugh at my "humor", and I love laughing at other people's. I enjoy reading funny blogs and laughing at YouTube videos of guys doubled over after taking a shot 'below the belt' from a baseball hit by their toddler son.. Because of this there are a number of blogs I check and read on a regular basis. One of these is Stuff Christians Like. It is "a tongue in cheek exploration of all the silly things Christians like. From Carmen to books about the rapture to crowns of thorns you can buy for $49.99 at the local Christian bookstore. It will be sarcastic, mildly funny and if some of these things hit too close to home, perhaps a little offensive."

Today the blog takes a humorous look at the serious question "why do bad things happen to good people". The author answers by asking a question God revealed to him. I encourage you to take a few minutes and click the link below to read the blog post.
