Why do you think God could prevent it?
Why do you think God should prevent it?
Oh, because God is omnipotent so God can do anything.
That is just not reality. God did not set the world up so He could intervene and prevent all suffering.
Humans are responsible to prevent their own suffering when they can and if they can't that's the breaks.
It is always God's fault isn't it? ...
Only it isn't.
I don't quite understand where you are coming from. If I saw a children suffering all alone, should I help ease that suffering ? If yes, why shouldn't God do the same ?
If God set up the world in a manner where he wouldn't reduce suffering even though he could, he doesn't get a free moral pass for doing so. He is as much responsible for the suffering that occurs as a parent that just watches his children suffering and does nothing about it. Can you explain why this comparison wouldn't be applicable in your view ?
