As an aside, however, in the cases of both the recent earthquake and hurricanes, there is some manmade evil involved as well that probably made things worse.
My friend Talmudic Karaite (you know whom I mean?) once said that he believes that at the moment of creation, God had power over every single event, but now that there are other sentient beings around, the situation is far more complex, and we don't have the right to attribute anything to God (even though he may still be responsible for a lot).
