You realize that blows free will out of the water? If God could do that, he could also stop the evil in the first place.
Quote:God is not a masochist - He detests these things as well. Why do you think they are forbidden by His commandments? But if they happen, he uses them to administer punishment/justice. That is just how it works.
How about someone who murders a child? The child was evil so they deserved God "administering" justice?
I don't think you've thought this through.
