  1. God is a jerk & imaginary. And if he does intervene, what does he do? I’m asking everyone, but for example in the Bible, he does a lot of things like talking to people through a burning bush (there’s actually a bush that does combust easily, that’s probably what that was, not god, but that’s another debate).They say God is omniscient & knows the future but did nothing like preventing the two innocent kids from burning (inferno). There are instead lot of natural disasters. Is it God intervening if one person survives? There are diseases. Is God intervening when someone survives a disease like Ebola? What about those who died? Why does God get away with natural disasters and disease by saving very few people ? The answers is simple God is imaginary & does not exist.

    • Why are you bringing an imaginary being into an unfortunate situation, maybe caused by poor evolved human beings?

      Maybe you really need your head examining.

      My thoughts and prayers are with the dad and mum of the deceased children.

  2. This god is imaginary for sure. And you can use him to suit whatever situation you want but the fact is, he does not change or do anything if at all he even exists. All those who die in tragedies are not stupid and it is very stupid of us to day he wanted them to die and the others to survive..You can use your emotions all you want BUT the fact remains, we are ALL going to die..We are alive only because of two things, one is pure luck and the other one is the good decisions we have made…Nothing to do with a supernatural or heavenly North Korea.

  3. Bane!! Don’t mess with God.u may acquire yo PHDs and other qualifications but one thing u shudn’t forget is dat of yo existence.u exist bcoz of God.Those stupid theories ure following are making u more and more stupid.never mentioned anyone

  4. Indeed questions has to be asked, why don’t we see/witness the miracles that has been mentioned in books called bible. A horse speaking, stopping the sun from movement, stopping the waters of red sea, the three coming out of fire unburnt , why isn’t these things happening today? So these things only happened in those old times and they can’t happen now. At least we could have heard that the children survived the inferno and no one knows how, then we can say ooh, another miracle has happened like Shadrick and his colleagues in bible. The answer is straight forward, one had to think a lot to imagine and create a trap that everyone has to be caught. Bible, it’s a book full of imagined stories.

  5. May God forgive you for you do not know what you are doing. Why would you even want to talk about something you have no knowledge about?A bible is a book of imaginary stories?Your souls have perished for sure coz u re mature and you know right from wrong.You want to attack the Almighty with your insanity?I pity you.kulibonesha

  6. May the souls of our beloved children rest in piece and a quick recovery to the parents who are hospitalized

  7. Comment:Just wait……my friend you will call and cry for him *God* one day.
