Still, I get what you mean about the seemingly unnecessary suffering. I'm not Malthusian enough to consider it "cleansing", but I can't say I see them as opportunities for us to do good, either. That pretty much sets up a God who is constantly looking for ways to trouble and test us, and I don't subscribe to that notion.

The idea of evil encompasses two things - evil by man's choice - which involves how we use the wonderful gift of free will, and the other is natural "evil" -- tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and such. Some consider those evils as necessary adjustments or "cleansing" of the planet. Some see them as opportunities presented to us by God so that we may react in a good way. I have trouble reconciling with either view. Tai-Tai - I feel so sorry for a kid who is not allowed to read Harry Potter books. They are missing so much fun! I cringe at the overprotectiveness (in whatever form) that so many parents subject their children to.
