If God is all good and all powerful, why wouldn't he protect a child from abuse, a woman from rape, or anyone from murder? If a PERSON stood by and allowed any of these to happen WHEN IT WAS IN HIS/HER POWER TO STOP IT, we would call that person immoral. Why do we let God off the hook? Harold Kushner (When Bad Things Happen To Good People) says God is good but he can't do everything. In the Book of Job, God sent/permitted all kinds of suffering for Job just to win a bet with Satan, then when Job asked why he was made to suffer, God told Job, basically, he wasn't qualified to ask the question. (Sheesh!) What gives?
