Bro. I have no intention of arguing this. It is my opinion. I aint changing.

However, there has never been any war that America has been involved in that brought about the distruction on this nation that compares to the CW.

More Americans died in that war than in all the other wars America has been involved in COMBINED.

100 years after that war, the south had not fully recovered from the devistation. one could argue that the South still has not as it lags behind the rest of the country in poverty etc. although it seems that is starting to change.

Agreed totally. Lincoln the greatest President himself said the war was Gods judgment. As far as Gaga I dont know anything about her except a few instances of ungodliness reported on the net.

So Im not speaking particularly about her situation. Who knows at this point she may not even have Lupus.

But I want to be faithful to make the GENERAL STATEMENT that the God of the Bible DOES judge peoplefor sins in various ways. If one does not understand that they need to wise up. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

We dont know why he judges some of the wicked up front in this life and others he does not. But nonetheless Christians should be advised that he still can bring judgment any time he sees fit.

Can you tell the difference between a sickness sent by God in punishment and a sickness that just happens? Say, to a believer? A really good believer? Or to an unbeliever who isn't particularly sinful?

Maybe maybe not. In scripture there are various examples. If we gave testimony to some things we have seen probably many would brush it off. Im sure there were people in Biblical times who thought the judgments that came to certain ones were merely coincidence too.
