72. the disaster and God



The world is facing the worst natural disaster in more than a century, one of unimaginable proportions. The tragedies are beyond number and beyond measure. Yet the grief engendered is not greater than the capacity humanity's heart to cope with it. We will conquer it and go on.
A question has come to my mind relevant to all this, namely: How are the religious among the survivors dealing with God's role in this?
(I'm not even sure of which religions are involved;please pardon my ignorance). What are their priests saying? How has this disaster affected the religious attitude?
Any information on these subjects would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
