I know you will be a fine lawyer someday. When you say "blame doesn't matter at all", I suppose you are referring to finger-pointing at a time when the crisis must be squarely faced. But while blaming does not matter as it will not bring back the dead, as you say, accountability does. We must hold those responsible answerable for their acts, in order that this horrible tragedy will not be repeated again and again. And while God certainly knows what she's doing, and her Will will be done, we should not accept all the consequences of these tragic events as mere "acts of God" or of nature. Human as we are, we have a large degree of control over our lives and how we react to situations and events. God gave us free will. Let's use it to ensure that greed, corruption, indifference and the multitude of evils which led to this tragedy shall never again prevail. Thanks for the kind words, Jeanne Kathryn.
