With respect and for the sake of honesty I must point out that atheism continually shows itself to be the product of flawed thinking and confusion.
The claim “God is not good” is both an admission of the truth of divine existence and a demonstration of a dependence on the unworkable logic that God’s standard of good is the same as our standard of good.
Returning the same respect, why is there no answer to the question as to why David's child had to suffer?
"God's justice is not Man's justice" is a poor way of putting it, really, especially since we're all supposedly "created" in a certain image.
It is astonishing why this question is rarely, if ever, addressed in theological circles, especially in times that were contemporary with the writing of the scriptures, themselves. Wouldn't you agree that this is true?
