I respect your joy and sincerity, used to feel that easy myself. But I've encountered too many sick children to praise their creator; deliberate creator of genetic defects, parasites, and pathogenic microorganisms. He might at least have mentioned it somewhere in the bible.

Thank you for your response. I understand where you're coming from. I've been there, too. God did tell our first parents that if they'd sin, they'd die. We've inherited those consequences just as much as we inherit our genetic distinctions from our own parents. While sickness and suffering exist, so do beauty and goodness; and these give us ample cause for praise.

Thank you again. I wish you well.

Amen, JChrist1689
