Sigh.
Is [God] willing to prevent evil, but not able? then is he impotent.
Is he able, but not willing? then is he malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? whence then is evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
- Epicurus
Andrew can talk as much as he wishes about paradoxes, suffering being a part of fallen creation, or of recognizing one's mortality, but I doubt he has an answer to Epicurus.
