Protestants and modern-day "Jews" don't have an answer for this -- one beyond dualism or "mystery", I mean. But the Church does.

Something being a *mystery of the faith* is the typical fallback for Catholics when they have something they can't explain because it contradicts Scripture.

Prots don't use that one.

Good catch there. Until you mentioned this, i had not thought to point out that in 15 years, I’ve not heard that one once.

I don’t know, has been used. But that is not a bad thing. Anyone who thinks they have all the answers usually has none.

After I read your first post I was beginning to think you had started going back to Mass. The reason? Your answer was 100% Catholic.

Then you come up with the usual Catholic bashing so I just need to weigh in.

God kills people because He can! We are all his creation. We are not to question God. We belong to Him and He decides when we live and die and if He decides to take us out of this world so be it. God is God and will not be questioned!
