KMApok"If God exists, why is there so much evil in the world?" It's a common question, but it is misplaced.
All things must have balance. Light and dark. Good and evil. Sound and silence. Without one, the other cannot exist.
"So if that's true, then God does NOTHING to fight evil?" That might be your follow up question.
Of course he fights evil. Relentlessly. I am Dartalian, one of His most Holy and Righteous angels.
I roam the Earth, disposing of evil wherever I find it. I kill the monsters you don't ever want to know about. I crush them completely so you can sleep at night. You humans have no idea how many of you live because of the work I do.
"But what about Stalin? Hitler? Ted Bundy? Jack the Ripper?"
Well, those are the minor ones I had to let live. For balance. The ones I destroy are ....too horrible and vile to survive.
What's funny, is while I would wager you never have heard the name Dartalian in any relegious texts, I bet you have heard of me.
Americans, for example, have their own name for me.
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
