I think it was Bill Maher who said something like, " You cant have Superman without Lex Luthor".
But your quote certainly demonstrates the vanity, and cruelty of a supernatural being that has the power to stop harm to life, but chooses not to.
I've often put it this way.
If say, a couple interviews a potential baby sitter. And the baby sitter describes their prior work as " I've baby sat 99 kids. 1 third I protected, and were never harmed. 1 third I allowed harm, but punished the perp after. The final third I simply let go and didn't do a thing."
How many people would hire such a being?
