Why some people prefer to believe in God who dispenses Perfect Justice

http://www.dilbert.com/strips/comic/2009-11-05/

"Wrong [and Justice] is one of those concepts that depends on witnesses."


It is analogous to the difference between a reported crime and a solved crime.

The journey to Justice is long and arduous.

First a wrong has to be suffered.

Then it has to be reported.

Then it has to be investigated.

Then the suspect arrested (if found).

Then the suspect interrogated and the right questions asked.

Then brought to trial (if sufficient evidence).

Then convicted (but it may be the wrong man).

Then punished (but it may be inadequate or too harsh, in which case yet another injustice is committed while in pursuit of justice.

Perhaps this is why some people prefer to believe in God.
