I'm probably sticking my head over the sand bank to be shot off but i'm surprised no one has said this yet so here goes (yes it's off topic to)
As a Bible-believeing Christian i believe that we live in a fallen wolrd, cursed by God because of the rebellion of man. Jesus was faced with a similar charge and you can read his answer in Luke 1
"Jesus answered, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered this way? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Or those eighteen who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them - do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in Jerusalem? 5I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish."
We are all living under a curse and deserve to die because we cannot ever expect live up to God's laws. But, God sent Jesus to us so that we can be saved from death by his lack of sin (or righteousness), we simply have to take hold of that and believe.
Yes, i know it probably flamebait, but be kind, it's my first post.
