Himalayan tsunami. Why does so good a God allow such horrendous things to happen? Why does he unleash the tsunamis, tornados, and earthquakes? Is he trying to show us that he is more powerful? OK he is indeed all powerful. Is he not the embodiment of compassion, kindness? Are we So evil that he has decided to punish? Anyways god should have handled this with sensitivity and compassion! If the god is taking revenge he should do it only on evil beings, Why the hardship to innocents, harmless and those who do good and are good also? If he is that powerful why can’t he do something about the problem of evil? Well this is a tough question that I still struggle with for an answer. I have realised that the evil is in every one, you and me and indeed everyone. May he has to be very radical like destroy one and all. May be he is giving a long rope. …show more content…

    He did other damage, through physical hurt, starving, impregnating and aborting. At some level of consciousness, they must have known that freedom was not an option and they had no way out but staying there forever. They were mentally taken advantage to the point they felt they could not leave and I believe even deceive them by telling them he was protecting them from the outside world. I believe he deserves what he

    Earlier that day one of the volcanoes erupted right into the sea, which made the God of the seas frustrated and irritated. As a result of that he created tsunamis because of his frustration and made sure it went over the volcano. Of course that got the God of volcanoes frustrated.

    God has shown to be forgiving as he stops himself from harming the humans. In Edwards words, “The sword of divine justice is every moment brandished over their heads, and it is nothing but the hand of arbitrary mercy, and God’s will, that holds it back”. Sinners are on the edge of destruction but God showers his mercies upon them by holding back. God is giving a ray of opportunity by showing his forgiving nature as he has not let them fall into the fire of hell. God is much greater than the sinners and is ready to forgive.

    “Tis a great Furnace of Wrath, a wide and bottomless Pit”(SHAG 35). He uses the word wrath many times to show how God is angry at us for committing sinful acts. To further express God’s anger he wrote about how God was our executioner. “The bow of God’s Wrath is bent, and the Arrow made ready on the String and Justice bends the Arrow at your Heart”(SHAG 35). Even I can’t comprehend the thought of having God, our supposed savior, being our executioner.

    The Gods felt that they had every right to do what they did when they did it just because they were Gods. Human beings were just the lesser people that were created to worship them. In the God’s they were perfect and did everything without mistake. When humans challenged them, their automatic instinct was punishment.
