Tag: god and natural disasters

"Faith, Resiliency and Natural Disasters" is a very fruitful topic that can go many different ways. However, when I mention it I get replies that addressed only one aspect: Is the disaster the result of God wanting to punish those experiencing it?

From a Christian perspective this statement seems to imply that God is NOT everywhere, present, and fillest all things or that he is present and chooses not to intervene for reasons beyond our understanding. If he is absent in any experience or event, does this imply that God can only be in one place at a time? Would he be God if that were the case?
