that is such an amazing story, almost like a comeback movie that you see now a days, like a guy is having the worst wekk ever, just everything is hapenning to him, and everyone is telling him to just kill himself, but he doesn't he sticks it through it all, and in the end, he lands a great job, a beautiful and wonderful wife, and become more wealthy than ever before, is that not a good story? like Pursuit of Happyness! That movie is the perfect example!!!! Wasn't that a good story?
i understand what you're saying and in a way I can see why other people would think so as well. I get the over all moral of the story and as a story it's great. But to me, set in reality I think it's a horrible thing for a "loving" God to do regardless of the rewards that Job recieved afterwards.

You can't kill my cat then buy me flowers and expect that to make everything alright. you still killed my cat!

I've never understood why God was so willing to give into the temptations of the Devil. Why did god feel he had to prove Job's love for him to the Devil? I think it's a little messed up that God would be willing to put his favorite human being through that much torment and misery just to settle a bet with Satan.

I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.[/
