        @SamHarrisOrg perhaps the question is not why wouldn't God help them but why we don't when we have the power to do so.

        @SamHarrisOrg @olaforsstrom Didn't Leibniz address this with his theodicy hundreds of years ago?

        @dpinsen @SamHarrisOrg He did. However isn't theodicy as an explanatory framework only really relevant to those who have religious beliefs?

        @wowverydope @dpinsen I actually agree with you on that. And, to be honest, I had never even heard of theodicy before.

        @SamHarrisOrg That belief in a particular God of a particular religion is questionable does not impact on whether or not a God exists.

        @biocrat That's right! ... And unfortunately, it's avoiding of real access to laws of creative forces in nature and society (called "gods").
