[Vision2020] Fwd: Breaking news from lmtribune.com

The whole problem with this kind of answer is that it opens the gates for
further questions. Try solving the problem of evil for tougher cases, like
folks who lost their jobs in the recent recession. Or are you trying to say
that ALL those who lost their jobs in the recession or who lost their lives
in recent natural disasters "had it coming," given their foolish decisions
about where to live, where to work, etc.? Did they ALL deserve to get fired?
Did they ALL deserve to die? Has everyone who ever died a horrible death, or
had something evil happen to them, deserved it? If I said the same thing
about your "innocent children" I'm sure you'd be equally offended.

I'm no atheist but it is safe to say that the "justification of evil"
defense does not solve the problem of evil. It will not get God off the hook
for everything. Free will only goes so far. Once you bring up these
inadequate stories to try to defend God -- who needs no defense -- you just
make the matter worse. Better to jump on the faith wagon BEFORE giving the
inadequate defense.
