    That's life.
    Plenty of people have had worse shit thrown at them and still believe. Others stop believing because bad stuff happens and they can't deal with the reality of it all.
    Shit happens and God (or Gods) have nothing to do with it. If a higher power existed and intervened constantly, life as a mortal would be absolutely pointless.

    Spoiler warning:

    This place is in serious need of some redemptive suffering.

    In any case, I'm glad to see it's not just my theological discourse that makes Roxas instantly go to bed with little to no warning.

    On topic of Mass Effect 3 I actually thought the ending was fine. They can't please everybody with it now, can they?

    Indeed, there are some points though you say: "Why can't a higher power just, stop this kind of stuff?" Cancer, for example.

    No, like my Uncle and Mom. Uncle passed away from it, thankfully my Mom survived.

    It was a joke.

    People die from cancer all the time anyway. I'm sure we've all lost at least one person to it.

    I know, I understood that. I wanted to put my point across lol.

    I bet so, it's a painful thing to think about really. I dunno. Religion + Me = Nope.

    You play the hand you're dealt with life. Although there are some things you can really help along... Like work for example.
