There is no getting around it.

I don't believe sickness is punishment but is a result of sin. Genetic defects as a result of substance abuse, intermarriage between family members, incest, molestation, any number of issues. Some environmental with the use of pesticides, pollution, medical and genetic engineering.
Bro. CS, you may have already given scripture but where do you find God using disease and sickness for chastisement? I know, as in the case of the blind man, that Jesus said that neither he, or his parents had sinned but that the glory of God could be made manifest...
