Prayer is like Thanksgiving dinner. It takes one hour to eat it and ten hours to prepare it.
Peter KreeftIf God is the Creator of all things and evil is a thing, then God is the Creator of evil and He is to be blamed for its existence. No, evil is not a thing but a wrong choice, or the damage done by a wrong choice. Evil is no more a positive thing than blindness is, but it is just as real.
