You don't understand the meaning of the story about the Tower of Babel; obviously. If and it's a BIG " IF ", GOD didn't want mankind to fly off into space, he would have put a stop it long before now. Is it your contention that each nation should have its own space program and that ONLY Russians , acording to you & GOD, can fly in Russian spaceships and ditto for American, etc. ?
The truth is, sometimes horrible things happen. These people, their families and Americans all over deserved this no more than the nearly 3,000 innocent taken in the attack of Muslim murderers.
We can only turn to God for comfort and pray for the family and friends of our dearest lost.
But I do not believe God has turned away from us. Not for a moment. After my thoughts and prayers for the crew, my next thought is "keep the faith".
