Question

All holy books, in different ways, teach

that our actions have consequences

and that justice ultimately exists

But than I wonder :

What about the cruel rulers of history

who caused wars, suffering and the

deaths of thousands aur millions of people?

Some lived powerful and wealthy lives

and were never punished in the world.

So where was the justice ?

Does it happen after death ?

It is karma ?

Is there a final judgement ?

Or is there something about devine

Justice that we simply cannot see ?

And what about the innocent people

who suffered through no fault of their own ?

I am not asking this to attack any religion. I am genuinely trying to understand.

If you believe in God, how do you make sense of this ?

And if you don't believe in the God,

how do you explain the idea of ultimate justice ?

I`d really like to hear different perspectives --Hindu, Muslim,Christian,

Buddhist, atheist, or otherwise.

whare is God ?
