Jade Goody has Cancer

The universe has decided that Goody's actions in life were sufficient to gift her with 'fame'...And that her actions before or since require 'punishment'. Furthermore, it has decided the form that this will take.

Although that's a load of nonsense, how do you equate that statement to innocent children who get cancer?

Did you? Sorry, I tend to start reading your posts then black out and wake up further down the thread.

I hesitated to use the term 'punishment' (hence why I placed it in quotes) as it implies a definite action as an act of retaliation.

To re-state (for what feels like the umpteenth time), we all have a path through life. Some people's paths gift them with riches, good health and success, others are gifted with hardships and ill health.

If we are gifted the former and act accordingly then we will continue on that path. If we are gifted the former and act inappropriately then our path will diverge to one which is 'less good'. Conversely, if we are gifted the latter and dwell in whatever negative situations we experience then we will continue on that path, whilst if we are gifted the latter and face our hardships head-on, maintaining humility and respect the our path will diverge to one which is 'more good'.

Using your example of an 'innocent' child, it is not a question of 'punishments' for 'crimes' but rather that the child had simply been gifted a path which was 'less good' from the outset.

I know that feeling. It happens to me when I scan your banger threads.

Thanks for the insight.
 
Well that's awful news for her, although just watch her eventually make a buck or two from this as well, new dvd: Jade Goody- MY CANCER. Sounds plausible.

In other equally shocking news, Christina Applegate has had a double mastectomy for breast cancer.
 
It seems only celebrities get cancer, first Kylie and now Jade Goody.. ( thats how the media think anyway) :rolleyes:

How many others were diagnosed today and how do they feel about the publicity craze over Goody.
No doubt this whole process will be highlighted everywhere again.

Karma is a Buddhist ideal, and so is reincarnation.

If karma is the universes balancing act. And a child is just beginning life, Then that child can not have done anything bad enough for cancer.

So it must be something the child did in a previous life.

Ofcourse, it's either that, Or Karma is a man made concept and doesn't exist.

I'd go with the second idea :D
 
C'mon now, it's not fair to mock other people's beliefs however sarcastic they are to you.

All arguments have been spent and enemies have been made. This thread is spent.
 
Whilst I wouldn't wish cancer on anybody, this isn't news. I couldn't give two hoots about whether or not some fatuous, racist idiot has it or not. Thousands of people have to deal with this every week of the year and I refuse to give a toss because Jade Goody has it. This is not 'news'.
