Why is there so much evil in the world and what's the solution?

“Adversity toughens manhood, and the characteristic of the good or the great man is not that he has been exempt from the evils of life, but that he has surmounted them.” – Patrick Henry

John Adams was the man who made Independence happen 250 years ago. It's not debatable. dailywire.com/episode/andrew…

I'm posting my full response to you here because I think it's important. I think you have grossly wronged @jackngraham and I want to make sure onlookers know it. You need to take this down and apologize: That is NOT what he was saying DJ and it is vile that you would suggest it. The abuse crisis claim was not that abuse has happened in SBC churches. We know, that as much as we might wish it, we can't always screen out every predator who looks to the church for prey. We CAN put in place the best systems to identify them, prevent them from gaining access to children, and report them to police when they are identified. And the SBC has done this. This is why, over nearly 30 years, across 43,000 churches that have played host to tens of millions of members, attenders, volunteers, and staff, the most allegations that a Houston Chronicle reporter could come up with was 700. Again, 700 allegations over 30 years across 43,000 churches. That is an incidence rate of of about 0.054% per church per year. Or roughly 5.4 cases per 10,000 churches per year. That is EXTREMELY low. By comparison, just one Chicago school district of 39k students saw 470 claims against school employees in 2022. One district. One year saw 56 TIMES the number of allegations that the ENTIRETY of the SBC has seen over 30 years. Of course, we still want every one of those claims investigated and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. And guess what? That happened. Almost every one of those 700 cases that the Chronicle collated had already been adjudicated. Meaning most of the alleged perpetrators had been reported, charged, and in many cases incarcerated. So the system worked as it was supposed to. What Pastor Graham is denying is the abuse "crisis" narrative that was based not on abuse of children but primarily questionable allegations from adult women. In fact, in the two highest profile cases, one woman was eventually found to have sent love letters to her alleged abuser (who was married and who she traveled to meet with) and the other said she didn't realize her sexual encounter was abuse until 10 years later, even though she was a mom of 5 in her 30s at the time of the alleged abuse. These were the allegations that the abuse "crisis" rested on. And that crisis was then used by Russell Moore and JD Greear to drive their opponents from the executive committee. Not one claim of cover up by national leadership was ever supported by evidence. And THAT is what Pastor Graham is talking about. You need to apologize to him brother and take this post down.

*The responses of the two candidates for SBC president when asked about abuse reform. Rice—Abuse reform was used as a weapon. Powell—There is no abuse crisis. *The responses of the two candidates for SBC president when asked about the ERLC: Rice—Needs a radical 180-degree turn. Powell—They have one more shot. Me: excellent, my work here is done. (Just a figure of speech, don’t worry, but these are very positive developments about which we should all feel good!)

Gideon was hiding, afraid, and God called him a mighty warrior. God does not wait for you to feel ready. He goes with you in your weakness, and that is enough. Watch now to keep going with Bible in a Year: bit.ly/48o3Jk5

Israel had no king, but they had a woman who feared God. Deborah led, Barak hesitated, and God gave the victory to someone no one expected. God does not need strength, He uses those who are willing. Watch now to keep going with Bible in a Year: bit.ly/48o3Jk5
