Bag om If God Is Good, Why Do We Suffer?
School shootings, child molesting, suicide bombings- why, God, why? Devastating tornadoes, tsunamis, hurricanes- why, God, why? Inoperable cancer, Alzheimer''s, a child''s terminal illness- why, God, why? Why pain? Why suffering? Why evil? For people who believe in a personal, all-powerful, loving God, the Why question is very real. How do you explain it to yourself? What''s more, how do you explain it to your chidren, your friend, your co-worker? The Why question is at the core of one of the most powerful arguments for atheists: If God were good, all-powerful, loving and caring, He could stop all this suffering. That means either He''s not all-powerful, or He''s not good, loving, and caring. Therefore, atheists reason, what you call "God" does not exist. Is there a plausible explanation? In this book Karyn Henley presents ten possible answers to this timeless question. She won''t give you the exact answer, she will simply try to lead you to a place of hope as you decide for yourself.
