If God wants all to be saved, why does he make it so hard ...?

It is all a matter of perspective. Maybe comparatively speaking, it is really easy. He doesn't require we sacrifice our first born children and fillet the skin from our bodies to achieve theosis, so thats something, right?Asteriktos said:

Psht. It is always God's fault. Even the atheists who don't believe He exists blame Him. ;DJ Michael said:

If a person was born blind I would not blame them for being unable to see the sun...J Michael said:
See where I'm going with this? Or, I suppose, I shouldn't say that God makes it so hard, so much as he lets it be hard. For some. Most? Any?

Didn't JamesR start a whole thread about this, but from the point of view of suffering? There was actually some good discussion there about it. I seem to recall that I thought Shanghaiski's reply was the best of the lot. But, that was just my opinion. :angel:Asteriktos said:
And yeah...it's hard. Sometimes it's a little easier than others, but.........

Hey guys, I heard that Karl Keating believes that only one of the three conditions (namely, faith and morals) is needed for a papal statement to be ex cathedra. I can hardly believe it, but I read it in black and white!

I'm sorry, Fabio, but I'm going to have to request of the mods that they move that post to "Politics". ;DFabio Leite said:

I have completed my goal for the day which was to post stupid meme pics in all the threads in politics which have been posted on in the last few days. I was going to fill the entire first page with TheTrisagion as the last poster, but a certain someone kept messing up my handiwork.

Had you notified me ahead of time of your nefarious plot, I would gladly have cooperated and assisted you in any way possible. As it was, you chose to go it alone and there are consequences for that. ;D

When did girls start doing that thing where the pockets of their shorts hang lower than the bottom hemline? Is that the correct term? 8th grade home economics was so long ago. Anyway...

Notice that the model has bent one leg forward and the other leg is in the background, so it gives an illusion that one knee cap is slightly higher than the other.TheTrisagion said:I just noticed that one knee cap is significantly higher than the other. What is up with that?!?!?!
The hanging pockets result because these jeans are cut-off a little too short, but that is the crazy fashions we are experiencing.
