You really are a stupid fuck. He could believe in God and still think you're a dumbarse.
It's one thing to believe in God and another to appreciate how great He is.

You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder

So if you accept that disease is a consequence of man disobeying God, why do you care if a heap of children get AIDS?

Infact, it seems paradoxical that you would want to bother becoming a doctor, given what you believe.

he can still help those who are sick, we are all in rebellion of God and all have sinned, it is humans fault there is sickness, it doesnt mean he shouldnt help them. there are many Christian Doctors

Well it seems contradictory. If it's our fault we're sick, why do we try in vain to heal or cure those who are sick?
Why don't we just turn our backs and accept that death and disease is our fate?

God never intended for people to suffer from diease. In fact, if it weren't for God's intervention in the world I believe we would be in dire straits. Jesus spent much of his time healing people and I think that it's a massive priveledge to be able to help others and alleviate their suffering whenever possible.

That's a bit of a defeatist view wouldn't you say? People are responsible for getting sick all the time, like with alot of the lifestyle diseases, but as doctors and fellow human beings we still have an obligation to treat disease if it's within our power.

What? you think God is HAPPY about the effects of sin? He doesnt like to see people suffer. Unfortunately , rebellion against God manifests itself in a pretty ugly way. They also affect the 'innocent'

Well if he isn't happy WHY DOES HE LET IT HAPPEN.

For fucks sake, stop and listen to how retarded that is. 'Oh God doesn't want you to be in pain, God doesn't want to see you suffer...But meh, thats what you get...And that's what innocents get!'

How the hell do you sleep at night with such deluded trains of thought?

Okay.
Please Katie , understand this :
A consequence is an effect or result of an occurance
Sickness was a RESULT of sin

SIN is REBELLION against God.
If God's creation rebels , it does not behave as is BEST FOR IT.
We are custodians of the Earth ( think natural disasters) , and responsible for our bodies
Therefore the human body is affected.

nobody is innocent though we have all sinned. he does not want us to sin.

No, I will not understand it because it does NOT MAKE SENSE.

A benevolent God does not let people suffer against his own will. That doesn't make sense!
