So he's hoping that good works, suffering and giving to the poor will make him a better Christian?
The tsunami wasn't a bad thing. 9/11 was a bad thing. Sin is a bad thing. Acts of nature are never bad things, though they cause sad results.
Sin is the disease. Not AIDS. Not poverty. Not pollution.

Yes. Sin is the disease.
And, those in love with it reap consequences. All of us do.
And many times, the more innocent reap because of those around them.
And, throughout Scripture, natural disasters were part of God's allowed reaping of sin sown.
