Well, aren't you the lucky one. God made you a rich investment banker while at the same time, he won't move a finger to save thousands of children under five years of age that will die today and every day no matter how much their parents pray for their recovery. Or when he did not stop a holocaust of six million people.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
