When bad things happen should we blame God? Even the Bible says that chance plays a part in all our lives, I suppose Adam swapped security for instability the moment he sinned against god - the world is cursed.

As a consequence we've willingly alienated ourselves from a broken world thats a constant reminder of our impotence, mortality and sin. We are therefore shocked and angered, blaming God, when the world reminds us of the true order of things. However, when all is going well many of us forget God entirely, only hauling him out to hang the blame on when it hits the fan.

Maybe when bad things are'nt happening lets call that an 'Act of God' instead and when they do happen, do as the bible suggests and 'consider'.
