[quote]In case you didn't read the entire book, the kids were way out of line. They knew Elisha was a man of God and they knew who they were messing with. Their arrogance got them killed.[/quote] Your logic is unbelieveable. According to your statement some guys here on b.net would have been dead a long time ago. I mean they bash your belifes, why doesn't god do anything against? The freewill? But this freewill thing existed at Elishas century, doesn't it? Does that mean your faith isn't strong enough? If you say their arrogance killed them then why is crazy Lincoln still alive? That makes no sense to me. There are two possibilities: 1. God doesn't care so why should we worship him. 2. He's a fairytale.
