Justice and Life

Sometimes I do wonder about theodicy, which is the explanation of why a good God would permit evil. Well, really more about the practical aspect of it. In the US we have a leader that is causing much harm to many.

One might ask, where is a good, all-knowing God in the midst of Trump's actions? Yet, of course, it's always been this way, just to different degrees.

Being brutally honest, all I can make of it is like the philospher John Hick talked about. That this world/life is a soul-making entity. Somehow, possibly, most pain is transmuted.

I just don't know.
