There are quite a few big questions that get asked about God, faith, and life in general:
- why do bad things happen to good people?
- what is the purpose of life?
- do woodticks have a purpose?
- how can an all-loving, omniscient God 'allow' people to not believe in Him?
- why don't humans hibernate?
- why are humans the only species that actively destroys its living environment?
- are natural disasters punishment for sin, a sign of the fall, an unfortunate side effect of how the geological world works?
- why do people make buttons just to label them 'do not press'?
Some of these are unanswerable, some controversial, and yeah okay, maybe some of them aren't the 'big life questions' but they are ones that I have! So my question for you - and I'm hoping to have some virtual interaction here!
What one question would you ask God if you had the chance?*
*assuming you believe in or are willing to entertain the thought of a higher being, for sake of argument we'll call that being 'God' and that you are willing to hear the answer.
Comments are very welcome!

Training update: walked 15 km last week along the Water of Leith, which is approximately the distrance of one of our short days for our pilgrimage. Verdict: although I think I fared better than Sean, my legs definitely hurt that night and that wasn't including any hills. Need to incorporate hill walking into my schedule - soon!!
