[quote=Anonymous]"The one thing that should never be said when someone dies is "It is the will of God." Never do we know enough to say that. My own consolation lies in knowing that it was not the will of God that Alex die; that when the waves closed over the sinking car, God's heart was the first of all our hearts to break." Rev. William Sloane Coffin, from his eulogy for his son Alex. I don't know why there is suffering in the world. I don't think that the Bible answers that question. Job, the book that most explicitly addresses the issue, ends with God essentially telling Job that Job cannot possibly understand or judge God. I tend to reject theodicy--I have yet to encounter one that didn't turn God into a sadist or an abusive parent. [/quote]
