I bounce between believing and not believing in God but the one thing I do know is if there is a god and he made men and women and he gave them the brain to make their own choice to eat that apple. He told them not to eat that apple and they chose to do so anyway. That right there tells me that I can believe that if there is a God that its not God's will when people choose to abuse others. He gave people the brain to learn what is good and bad. what they do with that knowledge they gain in learning is peoples choice and fault not God's. take care

just an added thought not related to the poster -
I also think of God kind of like a therapist. He's there to talk to but the solutions to my problems I have to locate those. Talking to him just clears away the emotionm level so that I can see the problem clearer.
