Our bein' human leaves us free to hurt each other, and God can't stop us without taking away the freedom that makes us human. Human beings can cheat each other, rob each other, and God can only look down in pity and compassion at how little we have learned over d ages about how human bein's should behave.
This line of reasonin' helps me understand that monstrous eruption of evil we speak of as the Holocaust, the death of millions of innocent people at the hands of Adolf Hitler. When people ask, "Where was God in Auschwitz? How could He have permitted the Nazis to kill so many innocent men, women, and children?", my response is that it was not God who caused it. It was caused by human bein's choosing to be cruel to their fellow men.
