Re: More questions then answers ..

Surely this is what life is about ... having more questions than answers and striving to find those answers.

I find my answers in science and faith some find faith is enough and some find science is enough. But the seeking answers is what it is all about.

Re: More questions then answers ..

One question that has plagued mankind is... Why do bad things happen to good people? Is this by God's design? If you believe in omnipotence and predestination it would have to be. If you believe it is random fate, then one would have to question omnipotence and predestination. It is not enough to simply say that it was in God's plan as would a good and loving Father allow a small child to suffer?

Why more questions that answers ? It is called "living", we learn something every day and we question what we don't know. Unfortunately some things we wil never have an answer for.

Re: More questions then answers ..

since there is no answer, then no point in worrying, worry about the things you CAN change not those you CAN'T.

There is no purpose to being here (other than the furtherance of our own species) and nothing to seek other than that which makes us curious. We are here, imo, by a quirk of fate and nothing more.

No. There is no great purpose in us being here. And what does seek the unknown mean?
