Questions About Faith 2
Question
As a believer, how do you look at past events in the history of the earth, like asteroid impacts that wiped out many species, including the dinosaurs? In other words, if there is a God who is present and cares, what are we to make of things like these?
So many things happened here that seem to point in the opposite direction — namely, that nobody cares about what happens… your view?
Answer
