In short, as I see it, there IS no natural evil in ANY SENSE, in Doc's worldview. There IS no "bad luck" when it comes to tragedies like car wrecks with killed babies. There IS no "&$^# happens" when it comes to tornados that kill kids. There is ONLY the sometimes benevolent, sometimes malevolent colliding of WILLS (either human-human or human-supernatural.) There is at least A demon behind every natural evil incident we face.

We got a bit off track and you never directly responded to this thought. Could you give me some idea on it?


Basically what I would like to know is this:

1) Can a "gratuitous" natural evil (like a tornado hitting a church filled with children or a falling rock hitting a person on the head and paralyzing them) NOT be a direct product of any evil intentionality whatsoever...and still be completely impervious to God's divine activity to prevent it?

2) Does "bad luck" that produces "gratuitous" evil actually ever occur? If so, in what context?

Thanks.
