Why does God allow children to get cancer? Why does He allow innocent people to be murdered in drive-by shootings? Why are good people sometimes killed in car accidents?

It happens so frequently that most people probably don't even notice it. Considering the number of biblical terms and names used, a non-English speaker with a dictionary could be forgiven for thinking Britain is a very religious nation.
