Error 404: God Not Found!


Gaza crisis raised many questions in my mind. I saw some people supporting the crisis just because they hate the religion the victims follow and some people condemning the crisis just because they belong to the same religion the victims belong to, and not because they care for the well-being of the victims otherwise. I even saw people praying for the well-being of the victims, as if praying will lessen the suffering of the victims.

When I was a kid, I heard many stories proclaiming how "just" God/Goddess are, by drowning almost every Earthlings, because the "sons of God" found the "daughters of men" beautiful and decided to marry them, by beheading Shishupala just because he abused the "almighty" a hundred times, and by killing 'Asma' bint Marwan because she ridiculed the "almighty" through her poetry.

Hearing all these stories of how "just" these God/Goddess are and what prompt action they take in order to inhibit wrong-doing, I was much confident that any or all God will come down from their heavenly abode to prevent the Gaza crisis or any other such incidents, which are so grievous in nature, as they took prompt action against "crimes" of minuscule magnitude. But seeing no action at all to prevent such heinous crimes against mankind, I was disappointed and was wondering that what made God/Goddess numb on such an important issue and tried to search (Google) where they were during these times of deadly catastrophes, and then I heard a voice from the cloud (cloud computing) that, "Error 404: God Not Found".
