Some people actually step away from faith due to the injustice of incidents such as the one that began this thread. If anyone had a reason to step away from believing in God because of injustice, it was Jesus. The man who stands at the center of all that Christians believe was treated extraordinarily unfairly. The man who taught that all people have inherent value was unjustly executed. The man whose definitions of ‘good’ and ‘just’ influences our definitions of good and just was treated very bad and unjustly. Maybe evil and injustice are not arguments against the existence of God. Maybe they are evidence of our need for His mercy and grace.
