I don't know if I buy the whole "if your punished here your not punished by God," thing. It's like saying a person grows up in poverty and does terrible crimes they're not responsible because they suffered already, but that isn't so.
I admit to having no response to the comments on what God said about innocents, except that his terms of innocent are probably not the same as yours or mine. I don't really think it's a manner of innocence though... all people will sin, no one is innocent. The only way to clean your slate is to accept Christ as your saviour. That is the only major difference I really have with the Muslim reliogio the rest is similar but twisted a bit.
As for the 9-11 I totally agree with that! I mean the American government says they have proof but they also said Sudam was making "weapons of mass destrotion" only to find they'd bombed an asprin makin company!
