P: Is that why that tsunami killed over 200,000 people in one flat

minute?

There is problem which believers seldom face: Either God is an all

powerful creator, and therefore, wantonly destroys life, which hardly

can be called loving, or He is a true lover, but impotent...............

 

and needs divine Viagra.

 

Of course, as Gary said the problem is with the God concept, and the

way we attribute to it human emotions such as love, and human virtues

such as goodness, and human aspirations of power, justice, and

life eternal. All indications are, that if there is a reality behind the

concept, it doesn't have any more regard for human life that it has for

the life of insects.
