So... if a diety can be all loving and caring and "Here's some cancer for you. Oh! Here's some disease for you. Have some random weather/earth event for you..." what with such actions being all 'Mysterious ways' kind of thing.
Why even think of giving said diety any sort of acknowledgement?
Just curious.

Like I wrote previously, I don't think the purpose of life in this world is happiness, so I don't view cancer or natural disasters in the same way that you do. I believe we're put in situations that maximize our chances of turning to God.
That's... interesting.....
Uhm... so... dying of cancer is kind of "Here... have this pain and suffering and die quickly already." sort of thing?
Or "Fek it." *SMACKS people with a volcano* "Right! Who worshiped me and who didn't? You didn't? Right! Off to the other place for YOU!".
Seems rather... odd.
Also... how might something like... Oh, say, randomly getting hit by a bus while crossing the street help one get closer to a diety?
All very curiouser and curiouser..... Surely a diety that has the 'All powerful' job descriptor could think of some other ways to go about things?
EDIT: Now, there's a thought. Why can't a "Maximally great being" make a 'Maximally great reality'?
Cheers.
