Destruction is a form of creation. Why should God spare millions of people. If he did that everyday there would be no question or debate that there is a higher power. It was an act of nature. Mircales happen everyday, but to different people mircales could be very simple. God found my car keys, God found my remote control, God made me win a million dollars from the lottery. The point I am saying is, if there was never a tragedy in the world, we would never evolve. We would never become stronger. We would never see the errors in our ways.

What does God have to do with it, really?
The point is moot, because despite what everyone believes, the Earth exists, and therefore earthquakes and tsunamis also exist. It's Nature, not an Act of God.
Whether or not God exists doesn't make a god damned difference in anyone's life. The earthquake and the tsunami, however, do make a huge difference and even if God did exist, would he/she/it bother him/her/itself to stop Nature at its most powerful and destructive?
Everytime something like this happens, this question always comes up. Listen people, God won't do anything about stuff like your cat dieing, your neighbor's house burning down, the Amazon jungle being slashed and burned, or the huge tsunami. Face it, and deal with it.
Blisterize, Satan and God have nothing to with anything that happens anywhere in our world, or anything that has ever happened. MANKIND is responsible for itself, and our world will not be a better place until people wake up and realize that. Take responsibility for your actions, stop saying it's God's fault, or Satan's fault, and by the same token stop thanking God or whatever you believe in for something you've accomplished, or for blind luck.
We are real, we can decide for ourselves, each and everyone of us has the potential to be God to ourselves and to others. Instead of waiting for God to do something, donate money to the Red Cross or any other organization. Volunteer your time to help the needy. Then God will indeed exist, only inside you. The power is within us, we don't need to look anywhere else.Peter: [writing letter] Dear MacGuyver, Enclosed is a rubber band, a paper clip, and a drinking straw. Please save my dog.
