It always irritates me when believers dismiss horrible human suffering (the kind of suffering that is NOT caused by people) as "part of God's plan". And, of course, we're too stupid to possibly understand "God's plan".
Yes, your god is all that is good and loves us so much we could not possibly comprehend it. But he sits idly by doing nothing while people suffer painful life altering afflictions that he could easily cure with a twitch of his eye.
Makes about as much sense as using gravel to make pancakes.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
