He'd have to explain for instance, why people who have done no wrong get all kinds of disabilities and diseases.
Original sin doesn't come close. People aren't responsible for the actions of others. Even if they were, punishment should be equal instead of a roll of the dice to decide if you'll have a healthy body and brain or not. Or if you'll be porn poverty stricken, middle class, or rich.
If he could provide good explanations for that, yes I would accept him. I doubt such explanations could possibly exist.
The disabled serve a purpose; that is showing the healthy how lucky they are to be healthy; and how life could've been them.
The death of somebody in a young age; or the sickness of another, made humanity a better breed. Taught us to be compassionate, because we can be in that sick person's shoes. Eventually; you feel sorry for the needy; because you imagine their pain inflicted on you. Thus; societies advance and good prospers.
If God opened the blessings on humans in this life; we'll end up with the Greek Mythology's scenario. Earth would've burnt; international conventions of preventing WMDS and Chemical Weapons would've not been an option:
Quote:Sura 42, The Quran:
( 27 ) And if Allah had extended [excessively] provision for His servants, they would have committed tyranny throughout the earth. But He sends [it] down in an amount which He wills. Indeed He is, of His servants, Acquainted and Seeing.
