God allows for that to happen. It is a choice made by those given the gift of free will to make that choice. God knew what was going to happen and allowed it. He could have also not made anything or anyone.
My point was that the analogy was poor. Anyway, this has just gone full-circle back to the, "if God lets a whole lot of bad stuff to happen, then he is a jerk".
And still, no one seems to be explaining away the obvious determinism that results from cause and effect.
