The Odyssey of Theodicy
A delusional man, driven by evil impulses, shot a bunch of innocent people this past week and everyone wants to know “why?”
Here’s why: He was delusional and driven by evil impulses. He is simply an extreme, out of control, version of a broken human being. There is no math of experiences that can explain it away.
Why was he delusional and driven by evil impulses? Why?
Maybe a better question is: Why not?
What do you think keeps this from happening every five minutes?
Peace to you.
