I don’t believe that God ‘punishes’ anyone.

He set laws in motion at the beginning, and humans punish themselves by breaking them.

God brings judgment on people and nations for violating His laws.

But that is always meant to bring people to a place of repentance, not for the purpose of just Divine Retribution.

So, he very well could be right but just not for the reason most people think.

I concur. Is God giving 3 year olds cancer for punishment too?
