Because he does not exist.

Sometimes things happen, and they are tragic at the time, good can actually come out of it and the person it happened can be told later on down the road that will help someone else. Sometimes people who have tradgedy in their lives start organizations that help prevent it from happening to someone else. The person it happened to could be someone that was strong and handle it and pave the way and help others who are not as strong but because of the help can make it through. In the end , everything happens in the world for a reason that can later benefit someone and that is where Gods glory comes in. we are not to always understand him but we know he love is there...
i hoe this helps somewhat

for an eternity god(in what ever form you choose) intervened in the life's of many beings but every time he tried to help he messed it up even more . no he promotes freewill that way he does not have to blame himself. and if we or him cant figure it out well maybe the dark side has won . don't count on any but you self to make it a better world 3 years in prison for killing a child molester is a small price to pay to protect our children and if everyone stood up it would be a better world hiding and crying wont make it happen.

Because, as the previous answerer pointed out, He only exists in the minds of His believers, and you will, I'm certain, hear from an endless stream of believers who will make excuses for His apparent abandonment of the helpless. Think of God as an imaginary friend, and you will begin to understand why reality and faith are so far apart.

because God had a reason for it to happen maybe it was for them to get close to God so he could comfort and strengthen them into more emotional strong people and be given the love of helping other people namely like kids or teens dealing with this because they know their burden because they know the plight of that. God only gives as much as we can handle. God has a season for everything and the person who hurts them will be judged and punished even if it isn't in this life time It will be done in the next and its real!!!!. People there is a living god and he is coming back to take his people home please get your soul right you don't know if you will have tomorrow to really think about it if you need Christ as your savior you need to pray the sinners prayer which basically is that you admit your a sinner and that you belive jesus died for your sins and you want Jesus in your heart he changed my life. He can change yours nothing can come against you too big for god to hear or if you need him to carry your burden your pain or your troubles he will. Please if your christain please tell people the word I love you God does too give him the chance and you'll never regret it.

Happened to me..not every day....It is not God's Fault...my point is that God has taken an absolutely terr able experience and healed me and Given me a wonderful fulfilling life.
Because of the original challenge that man can lead himself, God has deemed to step aside for awhile.....He will not allow it to go on forever.

don't you think God is hurt by what he sees? He...see..more than...what we...know..or expect...But I know you don't expect him to make a public exposure when he comes and say "Man, your not acting as what i've willed. is this the right thing that I've taught you?" Of course God would never ever do that.
Dear, the world is too noisy for us to hear what he is trying to say for a long time. He talk to us again and again. But we wouldn't listen. The noise is within us.

Why is any sin allowed by God? It is because people have free will to rebel and disobey God. However, He does tell us that vengeance is His and that He will repay. Romans 12:19.

I was. He did. I don't know what you are talking about.
I get to be with Him. I don't blame Him for what that person did. That is associating someone else with the guilt of another. God isn't guilty for raping me. He offered me a way out of the shame of it. And I took it.

What angers me...
Is that some Christians just dismiss things like this, saying "the rapist will pay the price in Hell," and forget about it.
It's up to the people who haven't been harmed like this, who have mental and emotional strength, and who grew up privileged... to help people that have things like this happen to them... regardless of anybody's creed.
