Someone I know recently mentioned how difficult it was for him to watch animal planet. The sheer brutality of it reminds him of how terrible human beings can be – how animalistic humans can be.
Maybe this is why natural evil exists? The cruelty of nature interrupts his life and causes him to step back and reflect on man and the human condition. I think this is a natural reaction. It indicates that there is not only purpose to natural evil, but mercy in it.
