Why should efficiency, in your terms, be God's goal? If we see this woman cop raised up, able to great things in the future because of this, so much more the awesomeness of it all!
I'm sure a lot of evil intent gets nullified through prayer, but obviously not all of it does. With man's strong inclinations and greedy demands concerning Free Will, we think we've gotta do what we've gotta do, all from a very young age.
The evil choices are from the hearts of men (and women). Evil is allowed to exist as part of God's plan. Praise, faith and love from automatons would be as meaningless as stones raised as Abraham's progeny.

i think strategist had a good point...........and though your reply makes sense it doesnt take into account one really important thing: u can only guess what God’s will is concerning this tragedy.
