What a shocking story Sad

Yes, I think the "god's plan" garbage is a way of coping with all the horrible that goes on in the world. Convincing yourself there must be some sort of overall reason for it, rather than just "bad shit happens".

But trying to make out there's actually a powerful being in charge, who has child murder as part of their plan, makes things even worse. And worshipping this being is disgusting.
