Yes! The bible does state that their god will do it, and some other horrors, too. But, it is only a book! Unless you can proof otherwise, in which case, please share.

Now I do not pretend that religion does not help the suffering and the mourning. Of course it does, but that is not the question.

Your statement of "no right, no wrong " but only "why and how did it happen" is not a satisfying explanation of evil at work, as we have seen it unfolding.

Finally, I can't understand your last paragraph, but wish I could, as it seems very interesting. Could you elaborate on it please ?

Situational ethics. Great.

You won't mind me murdering and raping your loved ones, then. I'm feeling marginalized, as a middle class white American male under seige by the forces of change. I'm feeling insecure, and can't help myself.

Thanks for your get out of jail free card.
