As a parent and teacher, I often have to remind people that we must take responsibility for our actions and also the results of our lack of action.
It is appropriate to assign blame to something, or someone, if change will occur based on that acknowledgment. Obviously, people should have stopped his behavior before he was allowed to assume this position.
Again, as a parent and teacher, whatever happens in the home and in the classroom is my responsibility. As members of a society, this same concept applies.
We are God's hands and God's feet.

Yes God exist. And He knows every detail what Dr. Josef Mengele did. Do you think God is happy with him, no not at all. Dr. Mengele's action in experimenting human beings is just not sooooo acceptable even for us human beings. Don't worry, God is in control of everything. God allow people to do what they like, but any possible punishment of their acts/deeds will surely follow them. If I were Dr. Mengele, I better sorry for what he did, otherwise he will end up in damnation.

Go to the library, get a history book covering the period from 1935 to 1948. You will see that Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party had the full support of the Vatican and the Catholic church.
After the end of the war, the catholic church helped nazi war criminal escape prosecution by hiding them and getting them to south america. If you do believe then you know that the Pope is infailible. You could conclude that God was Nazi. If you are not delusional, then you could just conclude that, as always, the church is used to help a few gain control over many.

Mengele and each of us will face the judgment. GOD will allow none to escape HIS wrath. Satan was Dr Mengele's conspiritor and he will pay as well. We need to be concerned with those who may be saved today. It is too late for the late doctor. He is dead and beyond our help. Have a fun reading.

For the same reason God permits you to ask questions like this which could be viewed as insulting to God. FREE WILL! God does not treat us like we are puppets. The real question is: "Why did WE allow Mengele to get away with it?

So you are asking why God allows evil to exist today? Maybe to demonstrate to humans that the human heart is sinful and needs a savior. If Mengele had been a Christian he would not have done what he did.

God never promised us a rose garden. Life's not fair. Get on with it and do everything in your power to prevent those atrocities in the future. God did send someone to make this world a better place -- he sent YOU. It's happening again right now, today. What are you doing about it? http://www.savedarfur.org/content

These are very difficult questions for all of us, even people of faith. All the horrors of that time make us sick. All I know is that evil exists in this world, sad to say, and at times its full fury is felt. It seems that God allows things to happen that we just don't understand, perhaps because God has let man do his own thing for a time. But that time will end one day. People like you have mentioned will be judged and it will be a terrible day for them. For some reason I do not allow the evil in the world to destroy my faith in God, that would make the power of Satan even stronger. No, look for God in your life daily, He will be found if you seek him.

There are many things that G-d expects us-the human race-to stop, making the world a better place to live. It was not G-d, but people who allowed this to happen. People failed their fellow man.

People could ask this question and convince themselves very easily to become anti God or atheistic.
Where is God when child molestors prey on children? where is God when a woman gets raped and murdered? You could never end with these questions.
Where is God? God is on a cross. If you want to know what God is really doing, He has not ceased to offer Himself up as a sacrific for our sins. The sins of humanity are vast, atrocious and never cease day and night. Nor does God's mercy and He does intervene too. He is not sitting up there twiddling His thumbs. What He sees all the time would make us vomit and die. The cruelty to animals, to children, He's aware always. Try and imagine how He must feel?
However, God Has His own timing and His own reasons why He allows people to mis-use their free will and often harm others. God could very easily stop a person in the act and prevent them from going through with it. God has enabled every human being to choose good from evil. If he continually intervened, we would not be exercising our free will and this is a violation of what He had originally given.
Youd' be surprised at how many evil people seem to live long prosperious and healthy lives. And how many of the good are often wretched and suffering.
Take a lot at Christ in the cross and there is your answer. The world was created good, there was no evil in it. Two people were given the choice to remain faithful and they BLEW IT. They screwed it up for everybody else. God in His mercy, sent His own begotten son as a sacrifice for sin that anybody who believed in Him, may have eternal life.
If you start looking to this world to define your faith in God, you will be sorely disallusioned. The world is a fallen world, and evil reigns for the most part. But the good prevails in the end.
You could also ask, "Why did God the Father, allow His own son to be tortured so cruelly"? Even Jesus cried out on the cross, as he was both man and God at the sametime. He cried out "father, father, why have you forsaken me?".
We can cry the same thing very often. This life is not something to hold onto and wise never to get attached to. Eternal life is what all should look forward to and those who are seemingly getting away with murder in this life, God help them in the next, because what is coming for them will be beyond their imagination. Everything evil and abomination that anybody does, even behind closed doors thinking "I am alone, nobody knows I'm doing this" GOd is aware of it all. He is very patient and slow to punish and is constantly offering His mercy, but once a person dies, justice kicks in. That is frightening when you consider eternity.
Any suffering a person inflicts on another in this life, wont' even come close to the Hell that awaits them if they do not repent.
Don't totally concentrate on all the bad that is going on, start also looking at the good and how many go out in Jesus name and do good to others, help the sick, give to the poor etc.
God is not dead to our cries, but this life is often full of tribulations, in hopes that we may carry our cross as He did. How can we expect eternal life, unless we take up our cross and follow Him? His treatment was horrific, yet He had no sin in Him.
