It shouldn't affect people's faith though.

Because if people take an honest look at it...God didn't put those things here. Man did.

Its just sad that so many in this generation can't think for themselves.

I have a question... If God gave life, can he rightfully take it?

Sorry.. no.
How did man 'put' cancer into this world? Sure, some electronics, radiation, etc increase the chances of getting cancer but when it comes down to it, God still made it possible for cells to randomly mutate into cancerous cells.

According to John 3:16, yeah. "For those who believe in me shall not perish but have everlasting life" (something like that, I'm going off memory here)

We can refuse to accept it

-Romans 6:23-
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

we are sinners from birth, Christ came to save us from our sins

Good by whos standards?

-Ecclesiastes 7:20-
Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins.

-Psalm 14:3-
They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt;
There is no one who does good, not even one.

-Romans 3:23-
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,


BUT...Gods loves us and wants whats best for us, so He gave His son Jesus to die in our place and attone for our sins

-Romans 5:8-
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Some people believe that during the three days that Jesus was dead, he descended into Hell and brought some to Heaven with him when He left. You can see "evidence" of His time spent there through the fictional Dante's Inferno, so that's a theory that's been around for quite a long time (note: I'm not saying Inferno is actually proof that it happened, just proof that the theory's been around for a while).
