That makes ZERO sense and is obviously a quick excuse to avoid blame.

Of course the word "omni benevolence" isnt in the bible, but omni benevolence means "infinite and perfect goodness, justice, and kindness", which is spoken of many times in the bible..if you just took the time to read it.
The idea of God's omnibenevolence in Christianity is based on Psalm 18:30, "As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him."
It is also supported by Psalm 19:7, "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple."
Deuteronomy 32:4
He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
2 Samuel 22:31
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
1 Kings 8:60-61
60 That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and that there is none else. 61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
Job 37:16
Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of him which is perfect in knowledge?
(I might not know how to "balance clouds" in the sky..by Jesus does..careful, they may tip! LMFAO)
Psalm 19:7
The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
Psalm 138:8
The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

"He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he." The book of Revelations is very precise about what happens to those who change the word of the lord around like you just did. It says they will add to their miseries in the lake of fire, and those who subtract from the word of the lord will subtract their name from the book of life.

Yes I do believe that God could have stopped this event, that however did not happen for what ever reason and I guess you'll have to ask God why. As for why doesn't He stop natural disasters, how do we know He hasn't, when and if He does we would never know because it never happened.God cant stop natural disasters because he is nothing more than a fictional character..DUH! Why do you think we are asking you these questions? We are trying to get you to realize the only answer for ALL of them is to admit that Jehovah and Jebus are fictional.
