Problem of evil: good quote

Post by neo-x »

Sometimes I Want To Ask God Why He Allows Poverty, Famine & Injustice In The World… But I’m afraid He may ask me the same question.
I think it reflects a lot on us and on people who constantly try to blame God for everything.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.

I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.

Indeed a good quote neo. The whole quote reads:
“Sometimes I would like to ask God why he allows poverty, famine and injustice in the world, when He could do something about it…but I’m afraid He may ask me the same question.” -- Anonymous.
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21

For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
-- Philippians 1:6

We are made in Gods image and are the stewards of Creation.
A job that we ALL want, hence we go about dictating our will on nature.
The flip side is that it is OUR RESPONSIBILITY to care for ALL of creation.
