thanks to science ppl dont have to make up silly stories (aka religion) to explain things that couldnt be explained before.
bottom fact is; either there is a god or either there isn't u cant prove there is a god. you dont need to prove there isnt a god. its funny how so many clowns that post here a alwaysct like know it alls. reminds me of socretes and the know it all clowns that thought they were so smart and wise. i jsut sit back and laugh lol
Thats what im getting at creation is not going to just *poof* its there like who sees a house in a field and assumes the boards just fell on to eachother just right and the nails drove themselves into the wood and the windows were put in by chance. "Of course, every house is constructed by someone, but he that constructed all things is God." -Hebrews 3:4
I'm afraid thats very unfortunate for the child and his/her parents. God didnt do that to that baby because "...time and unforseen occurence befall us all." -Proverbs 9:11

Its called Harlequin Disease, Google it and you will se dozens of pics like those, and even more horrible :s
there is no point in trying to convince an atheist of a god existing, and there is no point in trying to convince a christian of a god not existing.
i personally dont believe in god or even a higher existence of some sort, but lets face it: there are plenty of things that science cant explain (i dont think that we will be able to explain EVERYTHING in the future, no matter how far into the future we look), and there are plenty of things that christianity (or any other religion) cant explain. its all about what you believe, these beliefs you might as well call "faith", so every person is in a way religious, imo.
Well, if you're asking why God doesn't interfere, it's because the choice is still ours. Whether you believe or not, if God interferes and shows us all miracles 24/7 it'd ruin choosing him freely.
As for the picture of the baby, since we're basing this on Christianity (and not talking solely about whether there is a God or not), disease is a consequence of sin, like all suffering is. Not only that, we're not all Jesus, and if we were, we wouldn't need him to save us. So we all live with an imperfection whatever it may be. If the baby had lived, he would serve a purpose, or gain some experience that he needed through his disease. Since he didn't, God loves kids enough to grant them salvation since they are still without conciousness to sin.
And I have not read the bible as much as I should have, feel free to correct me.
There is really no such thing as the "innocent" suffering. "all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23), "there is no one who has the right to freedom from God's wrath on the basis of his own innocence". As far as babies are concerned, and others who may be incompetent mentally to distinguish right and wrong, it is clear from both Scripture and universal experience that they are sinners by nature and thus will inevitably become sinners by choice as soon as they are able to do so. God did not create the world this way, and one day will set all things right again. "God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain" (Revelation 21:4).
lol, I don't know what to believe in. Religion has its holes, and science does too. It just seems that as science advances in one area, religion retreats =/.
