Anger With the Non-Existent

Sharing Options

[Addressing Sam Harris’ indignation at the devastation caused by a tsunami] “Now I can only understand you being indignant with God over this if He is really there. But what if He is not there? What follows then? This event had no more ultimate significance than a solar flare or a virus going extinct or a desolate asteroid colliding with another asteroid or the gradual loss of Alabama to kudzu or me scratching my head just now. These are just atoms banging around. This is what they do” (Letters From a Christian Citizen, pp. 51-52).
