Ever read about Albert Fish the serial killer? He killed a few kids, but there was one where he kidnapped a four-year-old boy, took him to an abandoned house at a dump, left him there all night, then came back the next day and tortured him to death. Four years old! My question is, where was the all-Loving, all-knowing, all-powerful God? That poor little boy went through hell, and the only being that could have done anything to stop it didn't. And that's just one example. Every day, children all over the world are subjected to horrors most of us will never know, and it breaks my heart to think about it. Please don't tell me that God "allows" things to happen, or they happen because He's punishing us, because those are cop-outs. He knew before He created the world that Albert Fish was going to kill innocent kids, so who's responsible? Spare me the religious rhetoric. I'm just a guy with a young son of my own who honestly wants to know how God could allow such things to happen.
