My child died of cancer, and now I'm angry at God!?!

Question: My child died of cancer, and now I'm angry at God!?

This guy earlier asked how God could let his child die of cancer. Well i gave my answer, which was cold but honest.

All he could do was complain and be angry, while understandable, doesn't help anything.

I wasn't answering as a christian, rather as a fellow human being... but he could only spout anger.

I told him he should stop being angry and do something good with his life, and honor his childs memory by volunteering to help other children with cancer, disease, or disability.

He could only respond with anger and call me a *********. I then told him it was a good thing that his child didn't get to see what kind of horrible person his father became...

So who is right... whether a believer or non-believer.

wut are u mad bout? hes in heaven

Being angry doesn't help anything but it takes time to accept a death.Grieving is a process and to say that person is wrong that's wrong to me.I would have been angry at you too.Maybe in time this person will do some of the things you suggested.

Well I believe that you are right my father recently passes away and I didn't blame god for it I knew that instead of being sick he would go to a better place and instead of hating people I did things to celebrate his life and to help heal my heart

It is normal HUMAN NATURE AND RESPONSE.
Why me and my child?
Time is the best healing factor.
This always happens and with due course of the time Life goes on.
It is temporary phase.

you are grieving.

Wow. What you said to him is incredibly cruel (how it's a good thing his child didn't get to see what kind of a person his father became.) Your response to him was not helpful.

Being angry at God is a completely normal response after the death of a loved one. Death of a child is something so incomprehensible and so... there are no words strong enough to describe the intensity of the emotions. Grief is overwhelming in any case, and there are no right or wrong emotions that come with it.

Even if you think someone is wrong for feeling what they feel, it's better to keep your mouth shut and not make someone feel worse.
