Since Haiti was hit by the earthquake I have been patiently waiting for any religious person I know to excuse god for the disaster and blame “mother nature”. Haiti’s misfortune brings up and all to familiar inconsistency in religion, especially the monotheistic religions: the problem of good and evil.
Pat Robinson, Christian TV evangelist was so disabled by this conundrum that he publicly resorted to claiming that the reason Haiti suffered such great misfortune was because they had “made a pact with the devil”. For him, this was a sufficient explanation for the recent Tsunami, Hurricane and now Earthquake that has brought this country to its most desperate hour.
