So is there free will or not? Cancer is pretty calamitous I would say. Is Allah controlling our very DNA so that some people have cancer and others don't? We are perfectly designed after all.
Sounds like Isiah 45:7 "I create good, I create evil, I the lord do all these things". Different versions say "calamity". But the intent in both the Koran and Bible basically say, I am your boss, if you don't do what I say, I will kick your fucking ass.
Which really pisses me off when I think about the Tsunami in Japan, having had an x wife from there, not that area but Japan. Currently that is a very peaceful nation and virtually crime free by comparison. You'd have me believe that 20,000 Japanese people who did nothing wrong deserved to die for what?
