Insightful Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 This story is just heartbreaking. This poor child was: 1) Born with Down Syndrome 2) Survived leukemia last year 3) Died from COVID-19 this month These were the kinds of stories that made it impossible for me to believe in Providence - the idea that there was this all-good, all-loving hand guiding the universe... You have to do some seriously jacked-up mental gymnastics to think that there is someone working things out for good... And hers was a church-going family... she sang in the choir... No special protection granted for having faith... https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/20/us/kentucky-student-cancer-covid-trnd/index.html 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostinParis Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 My religious friends would simply say that Alexa and her family will be rewarded in heaven for their suffering. Praise the lard! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freed Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Yes we are to suffer for the lord. Sickens me. https://bibleproject.com/explore/1-peter/ https://biblehub.com/matthew/16-24.htm Etc... Poor baby. No child should have to suffer. No parent should have to bury their child. Well unless you're Jephthah's daughter that is!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
