Whenever man deliberately chooses, he is the "father of his acts." These freely chosen acts can be morally evaluated as good or evil.

Living the Virtue of Humility
Got a serious question for you, Salvation. Recently experienced something I never had happen before, betrayal. Betrayal on a scale that includes myself & potentially millions of others who’ve been prescribed antidepressants for many years will & do experience now; anti-depressant withdrawal.
Now with that in mind, we are taught & I believe God exists out of time. He see’s everything that was, that is and that is to come.
What does the Church say to the following question: When God sees that a betrayal of trust that will cause many years of earthly harm, harm that will make it near to impossible for many people to worship Him because of cognitive issues from the withdrawal & brain damage...WHY DOESN’T HE STOP IT!
If this is off topic, I am sorry. The hurt & news is very recent. I am VERY angry with God and those on down the line who either allowed or perpetuated this atrocity.
Here’s a link describing what I and millions of others are going through purely because we put our trust in medical professionals & med companies were allowed to create a new addiction to keep the $$$ rolling in: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/side-effects/201107/antidepressant-withdrawal-syndrome-findings-recommendations-and-resources
Again if this is OT, I am sorry. I jumped at the 1st Catholic thread I saw.
