1. John 9:1-3

2. Richard Dawkins, River Out of Eden, p. 133 In a universe of blind physical forces and genetic replication, some people are going to get hurt, and other people are going to get lucky; and you won’t find any rhyme or reason to it, nor any justice. The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is at the bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil and no good. Nothing but blind pitiless indifference. DNA neither knows nor cares. DNA just is, and we dance to its music.

5. SILLY EXPLANATIONS God is testing us. God wants to find out who is worthy. God has taken himself out of the picture. God doesn’t know what is going on. Etc.

25. GOD’S WILL IS NOT ALWAYS DONE!! THOSE THINGS GOD ENJOYS. THOSE THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO HAPPEN – JUDGEMENT THOSE THINGS WE HAND GOD AND SAY “SOLVE IT MY WAY.”

26. THE BATTLE IS VERY HARD!! GOD CARES.
