CL, you have been here far too long to pull this.
It is about LOGIC, not rights.
WE get you truly believe what you do. WE get that you hold the position that your God is good, and the correct one. WE GET THAT. Many of us used to believe. I am a former Catholic myself, so please don't go there.
We criticize the logic of it. We don't like events like this anymore than you do.
The logic simply is not there to claim an all powerful deity, who claims to be your protector but cant or wont stop things like this.
"Mysterious ways"
"I can do what I want"
"Free will"
"I don't have to explain myself to you".
"Faith"
If you needed a baby sitter, and interviewed them for the job, and they gave you the following response, would you hire them?
You, "So what is your past experience?"
Baby sitter, "I have baby sat 99 kids. 33 of them nothing happened to. 33 I allowed a child molester to molest them, but got them arrested after the molestation. 33 I let the molester rape them and murder them and let them flee."
Would you hire such a baby sitter with such a spotty record? I am sure your answer is "no".
Great, I would not either. So what excuse would an allegedly "all powerful" God have?
Maybe God belief exists, not because a God exists, but because humans gap fill, and want a God to exist. Maybe if humans want less of these types of events happening, maybe instead of clinging to old mythology, we rely on data, we rely on laws, we rely on psychology, we rely on social stability.
Yes we are going to criticize any and all God claims, not just yours, but all worldwide. If our species never questioned social norms, our species never would have left the caves.
