That's not an answer, it's sleight of hand. God is omnipotent, so God could sort it in an instant. But apparently, He chooses not to. There is no reasoning good enough to allow preventable hideous suffering on the grounds of faith. None whatsoever. You are deluding yourself.

-- Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger
