Sorry, i didn't realize you were specifically addressing Zell.
You agree with what you think the bible says, but it's all interpretation (so is my view of those passages). Being human, thinking beings, that's unavoidable, especially when it comes to things fraught with emotion, like religious views or texts.

Please, if you would for my education, explain to me where I have interpreted those scriptures?
The words clearly state the meaning. I am taking the words as literal, without any explanation needed. What more could I do to avoid interpretation?

Jo,
I don't understand why god, if there is one, allows us to suffer (not just Christians, who are no better or worse than anyone else, but all people). I do not at all believe that the reasons in which Zell believes are correct. If there is a god, i do not believe that the nature of that god is as Zell believes it to be. My best guess is that there is no god, or if there is one then s/he is unable or unwilling to help us.

Zell, i am not stealing anything. Jo asked a question, and i answered with my honest opinion, just as you did. We just disagree completely, but both of our views are valid.

I understand, Zell. At the same time, i have to tell you that reading god-positive comments, especially very christian ones, angers and upsets me, and i'm sure some others who feel as i do. I have had people, on this site and others, thank me for offering a perspective that they share, which lets them know they are not alone in feeling as they do. I do not at all want my views to encourage anyone to kill her/himself, but ANY view can be detrimental to someone. Honestly, if there is a god and if s/he is anything like you believe and describe, i would never love or worship that being, and would rather cease to exist than live in a universe where that is the being in charge.
But i am not "shooting down" anyone else's hope or belief. Each person can believe whatever s/he wants. For me, not having faith in god is not a choice, it is simply the outcome of what has happened to me, and i cannot feel any other way.

Zell,
I know what you mean -- believe me, though I do not share your views, I do respect you and your right to hold those views. I know you are in a pain similar to mine, and I wish neither of us (nor anyone else) were feeling this and living in this horror.
The only way I can try to help others here is to let them know that they're not alone in the way they feel. I cannot offer consolation in terms of god or an afterlife, because I am agnostic/atheist. I don't say that there is no god or afterlife, because I don't know, and I would never tell someone else that s/he is wrong to believe as s/he does. But I do feel that people (not just you -- everyone, myself included) need to realize that there are many different belief and non-belief systems, and that all are valid (since we cannot actually know, at least not while in this earthly human life, the true nature of god/afterlife, if either or both exist). It's fine to share your views, but it's fine for everyone to share their views.
There are many, many posts, on this site and others, to which I do not respond, because I can't offer the people who post them anything, so I say nothing. There are many other posts to which I answer in a limited way, just to let the other person know that s/he is not alone, but I don't say anything about the way I feel about the afterlife or god, because it wouldn't be helpful to that person.
I know that you are grieving, and I wish you weren't. I see that you are genuinely trying to help people, which is a good thing. And since for you, you believe in god and feel that s/he gives you strength, I understand why you share that. I'm just saying that it shouldn't be assumed that all people (here, or in general) feel that way, and even among those who do, not all share a belief in the Christian version of god -- there are many ways to look at god. Sharing your way is a good thing, as long as others are also allowed to share their way, or to share that they don't have a way or don't believe there is a way. In this case, I answered Jo's direct question that she posed.
All of which sounds kind of mean, for which I'm sorry, as I don't intend it that way -- it's just hard to get "tone" across online. Zell, I like and respect you, even as I disagree with you. I hope the like and respect comes through as much as the disagreement. ;-)

Good, I'm glad it comes through. :) Yeah, a coffee chat would be a bit difficult to accomplish....
I know that your sharing comes from genuine concern. If I knew that my husband is happy & safe, that he is still himself, and that we will be together again, that would help. I would still want to die as soon as possible, so as to be with him, but at least I wouldn't be questioning whether I would be with him. If there is an afterlife, I don't believe that humans need to do the things you believe they need to do in order to get there, though. There are probably as many views about that as there are people on this planet....
You're absolutely right that this horrific experience devastates your life. My life is over, in every important way other than the physical because my stupid body hasn't yet stopped. Even if there is an afterlife where I will be reunited with my husband and eventually with the rest of my family, which of course I want and hope there is, I very much doubt I will ever be less angry or sad or in any way get over the fact that he was ripped from me and our life was torn apart for no reason. An endless happy afterlife is great -- but we should have had this life, first. And as you said, every day we go through the pain again, that will never change because the circumstances will never change. This world lost all appeal for me, too, the second my husband died. If there is a god and if it has any mercy or kindness, it will let me die as soon as possible.

"is griefshare a website like this?"

I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
