In the aftermath of the tsunami, the eternal theological question is again posed: what sort of God permits the slaughter of blameless humanity on such a scale?
On the abundant available evidence does it not seem that, if there is or was a God, it is now malevolent, mad or dead?
No, religious nutters please - this is a serious question I'm posing.

Ha. religious nutters. i know exactly what you mean, trust men, i know a few people like that and i am proud to not be one of them.
is it possible that this was just the effect of some environmental imbalance? im a hardcore catholic, i however do not believe in divine intervention. so i do not think that God "sent" the tsunami to teach us a lesson, cleanse the earth, etc. It's interesting really, how certain events and choices we make can effect the future. just think, one little ecological decision we make could in retrospect have caused the tsunami. perhaps i'll get bombarded by "religious nutters" as you call them, but to me, catholicism is a way of life, much less a driving divine force seeking vengeance on those who do not believe.
truly yours,
