I sure hope those vehemently pro-life folks will pony up the money to support the kids born with brain damage.

It's also not just a South American problem. We've seen this affliction of "small brains" as far north as Iowa.

Various branches of Christian faith, as well as other honorable organizations, have a long history of caring for children, widows and orphans. Zika inflicted babies do not have to be murdered for the sake of money management.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

If we were to euthanize the brain damaged, this post never would have happened.

Most of them will be born in countries with varying restrictions and availability of health services. And little to no social supports for sick children. I suppose the suffering is God's will.

In better news SCOTUS would appear to be paying attention to the blistering attack on the attempt by Texas to make abortion services nearly unobtainable. The fury and outrage expressed by the female members of the court appear to have had an effect on the males. They voted 7-1 to at least temporarily block similar Louisiana laws.

Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

That is self evident, since you were able to make it.

Nice! I should have said OP, but I didn't. Full marks!

Your God acts in mysterious ways, making virus carrying mosquitos bite pregnant women to cause brain defects. All part of the grand design, I'm sure. Nice fellow, this God chap.

Well, the Pope said that birth control was ok for people in the affected areas.

Please don't blame God. She is wise and just, and She is just a human construct. Sometimes I believe we created Her just so we would have something to blame.

The Zika virus is owned by a British company and the Rockefeller Foundation owns the patent.

It appears that the virus was developed and marketed by man.

I take it you have no clue how research labs operate.

Personally, I get my microbes from Think Geek, but I'm not a research lab.

So practically every civilization in the history of humanity has developed a concept of some type of mysterious God just for the hell of it, what a coincidence!

Not for the hell of it - for those people who need the crutch to have something to believe in.

The concept of God is innate. People use that concept in various ways - some even suppress it.

Uh... that's exactly what I'm saying. The concept of God answers a human need for understanding what he will never understand. So he makes up answers and passes them on.

So your problem seems to be with religion and how it impresses upon the masses it's own interpretation of something so personal - I agree. It is religion itself that has caused many people to suppress such inherent truth.

Which is an excellent argument for why there is no diety. If there were, all these civilizations would have come up with the same God. Since none of them independently came up with the same God, there is no God.

Why?

Since none of them independently came up with the same God, there is no God.

Yet throughout human history there has been this universal desire to define such a deity that supposedly doesn't exist.

I see it as a desire for knowledge that is unattainable. I don't deny or believe in a creator myself. But I acknowledge that I have no way of knowing. I accept it as a mystery and believe that man should not and can not ever know. I also understand that each person has their own belief on the answer to this puzzle, and I support their right to those beliefs.

But it annoys the heck out of me when people try to push their belief on others. So I push back.
