If God was standing next to the World Trade Center, with a gigantic cosmic catcher's mitt, and yet did not lift an indifferent finger to spare the victims.... then he would be one evil creature indeed.

God is not a "creature," "evil" or otherwise.

And he doesn't owe you, or me, or anyone else a miracle.

Calling God "evil" because he didn't perform a miracle to prevent loss of life on 9/11 is insanity. If you were a believer, you would understand that. As it is, trying to reason with you on a thread like this is like trying to explain what flowers look like to someone who was born blind. I really don't understand why you bother posting, since those of us who are believers aren't going to be swayed by your obvious lack of understanding.

And, BTW, nobody except extreme Calvinists contend that God desired or caused what happened on 9/11. But he permitted it it as a call to repentance, which is a mercy. You don't understand that. You see no need to repent. You see nothing from which we, as a nation, need to repent.

You're wrong.

I did not call God evil.

I suggested that those who state that God allowed this to happen to "teach us a lesson", are defining God as evil.
