Bad things happen to everyone dear.  Because there is sin in the world and life isn't perfect. If nothing bad ever happened to us, we wouldn't appreciate when things are good.  Just remember to be thankful for what you have. :)

Actually good and bad boil down to perception of the person.  For some what is good to them is bad for another and the other way around.  It just depends on the person and their perception of it.

Bad things don't last, either.  The more unusual a situation is, the less stable it is.  If a situation is more stable, it becomes the usual.

Many people take life for granted because they have never seen the face of death.  They have no concept of their own mortality.  That is why the very young tend to be so daring in their behavior, often courting disaster because they believe it can't happen to them.  However, those who have lived some time and have had personal bereavements and near death experiences can appreciate life more because they know it is fragile, priceless and irreplaceable.

I believe that we should live our lives now, not for some indeterminant reward when we die.  And part of living that life means doing good works, not for the goodies but because that's what good people do.

because death or bein dead is part of the unknown. people generally dislike unfamiliar circumstances i.e death. im scared of death, partially becuase im scared of how it will happen, but also becuase we dont 'really' know what happens after death till it happens. im not religious.. but who knows? no1.

True.\nBecause if you are a good person, eventually some people will recognize this and good things will come your way.  It isn't necessarily that you did one good thing and now it's coming back to you.\n\nIf you are a bad person, the same deal in reverse.\n\nI have seen this time and time again.

Does this fall into the category of "why do bad things happen to good people"?  I understand your question completely and have asked that same question myself.  In time you come to accept what happens, good and bad, as out of your hands.  Everything in life is a lesson and we just have to try to see what it is that God is trying to get us to learn.  I don't question God's wisdom, I just ask him to help me see what it is he trying to teach me.  Maybe those people who cannot have children are there to make a home for those children who do not have parents.  Trust in God's wisdom, his will is always done.  Accept what he gives you and learn from it.  This may not answer your question, but it is the best explanation I can give you.

All people, christians and non-christians grow old and die and many die from unforeseen circumstances. The reason bad things happen to anyone, is because of God's enemy, Satan the devil. He challenged God's right to rule over the earth and said that humans do not need God and could rule themselves independently without God's help. God is answering Satans challenge by allowing man to try to live without his interference. Satan also said that humans would discontinue serving God if he( Satan and his demons)) were allowed to cause them pain and suffering. There have been and still are many who are proving Satan to be a liar, who love and serve God faithfully, despite whatever persecution Satan brings upon them.\nWhat has been the result of man ruling man without God intervening? Suffering and injustice, wars, crime and hatred. \nGod has promised to soon rid the earth of all those things and to destroy Satan and all who follow him. Satan will lose the challenge and be proved a liar. By remaining faithful to the end, we show that we are on God's side and prefer his rule over man's.  \nWe need a righteous ruler who will be just and merciful. Human rulers can do nothing for us. (Psalm 146:3)\nLook what Psalms 37:9-11 promises us--" For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace." \nSoon the meek who inherit this earth will be under one government that will last forever. (See Daniel 2:44) No more will we have to put up with imperfect human rulers who can never bring an end to injustice, crime, terrorism or death itself. God's government will do all that and more.

there is a lot of researches going on about this topic "life after death".people have different beliefs but one can know what really happens only if one dies!its a mystery again and no one can tell exactly what happens.biologically,death happens when the body functions stops due to any reason for that matter and then there is no life in the person who is dead.just gone forever.it need not be necessary that he/she has to go somewhere (hell or heaven) after dead.people create myths like these:if u do good deed during the course of your life,u will reach the heaven(the place of God) and would be treated well,and if u do evil things , u will reach the hell where the devil would torture u etc.....all these myths are created only to make people do good things and be good.but i think there is no such thing as life after death.i believe in science so lets see what science has to say about this in the coming future...........

coming from a Romani back ground I think its nice that you have mentioned the gypsies that died too.\nso many bad things happen in the world and its hard to see the point of it all, I do however remind myself, if its getting me down, that there has to be more good in the world than bad else it would be alot worse and its only the bad stuff that we get to hear about, when was the last or only time you heard how someone did something nice or selfless? but i know they happen.

Just think my dear freind, why does a just born die, why does a bad person live long, why does some ppl die young and some get tourtured thro out life and why does some get all good things in life, what decides who should be born where & why, how should he/she live. Can we  just say its God who decides it? But what makes him to decide? How can that happen. If there is no concept of rebirth and Karma, why does God gives life to a baby and takes back its life in a day or two, for some its 10-20 yrs, and for some who live 100 yrs, whats the core of this?Its Karma and rebirth which explains the logic of this.

people dont die form "old age" theres always a body part/organ/function that goes causing death.

seems to be the natural order of things... the beautiful, young, intelligent person seems to die at 20 of some freak tumor or something, while the person filled with hate and ignorance lives until he is 109... \n\ncockroaches will never die, while the most beautiful flowers wither away the fastest...

There is a hidden law of Karma.  If a person is Good or is doing some serious meditation, his bad karma will start coming for destroying.(only good left for bigger rewards)\n\nIf a person is real sinner and selfish, and nature has decided to punish him later, all his good karma will start coming for fruits.(only bad karma left for bigger punishment)\n\nThat z why we see good people suffering, and bad people enjoying

the purpose of human death is for you to die. when you die you make room for another to live. your body turns to dirt and dust to feed the earth. beautifully simple isn't it?
