Jesus and Richard Dawkins

The famous atheist says the universe is blind, pitiless, and indifferent. Is he right?

Anyone who has faced cancer, or seen the innocent slaughtered in war, or grappled with the Holocaust, or seen a tsunami wreak havoc on a coastal city, or watched in horror as shooters stalk our schools cannot but pause and concede the point that sometimes—indeed, often—bad things happen to good people, frequently for no apparent reason. As I have written elsewhere, in my own life, I have grappled with the seeming injustice of physical disability from birth, doubting God’s goodness and power until I learned better.
