En los días posteriores al 11 de septiembre de 2001, hubo dirigentes religiosos en los Estados Unidos que emitieron el juicio de que el ataque terrorista ocurrido en aquel nefasto día representaba el castigo de Dios infligido a una nación en extremo pecaminosa. Así Dios, de manera inequívoca, le llamaba la atención a aquella superpotencia mundial. Según esos líderes eclesiásticos, Dios no tuvo que hacer más que valerse del odio que albergan en el corazón tantos individuos contra el país que consideran culpable del deterioro moral que cunde en todo el mundo. Contra ese juicio tajante se pronunció con firmeza el periodista estadounidense Cal Thomas el 19 de septiembre ante su público nacional. A su columna escrita como respuesta a semejante concepto de Dios, le puso por título «Cuando se juzga que la calamidad viene de Dios». En la primera parte de su exposición bíblica, Thomas cita varios pasajes del Nuevo Testamento. De ahí pasa al Antiguo Testamento, del que se vale con maestría para desarrollar el siguiente argumento teológico con el que le pone punto final al asunto: «Dios no habría destruido las antiguas ciudades de Sodoma y Gomorra si allí se hubieran encontrado sólo diez justos (Génesis 18:32). ¿Acaso los que creen que el ataque terrorista representaba el juicio de Dios piensan que había menos de diez personas justas en Nueva York y en el Pentágono cuando se estrellaron esos aviones contra aquellos edificios? »Dios permite que ocurran cosas malas a pesar de que Él, por naturaleza, sólo hace el bien y saca de lo malo algo bueno. ¿Cómo sabemos esto? ... El Salmo 5 dice: “Tú no eres un Dios que se complazca en lo malo.” José, a quien sus hermanos habían vendido como esclavo y sin embargo llegó a ser el brazo derecho del faraón y el proveedor de alimento a los hambrientos, les dijo a sus hermanos: “Es verdad que ustedes pensaron hacerme mal, pero Dios transformó ese mal en bien para lograr lo que hoy estamos viendo: salvar la vida de mucha gente” (Génesis 50:20). »En Génesis 18:25, Abraham intercede por la vida de los habitantes de Sodoma. En sus esfuerzos por lograr que Dios perdone a esa gran ciudad, Abraham dice algo importante acerca del carácter de Dios que tal vez debieran considerar aquellos que creen que Dios ha castigado a los Estados Unidos de América mediante un ataque terrorista: “¡Lejos de ti el hacer tal cosa! ¿Matar al justo junto con el malvado, y que ambos sean tratados de la misma manera? ¡Jamás hagas tal cosa! Tú, que eres el Juez de toda la tierra, ¿no harás justicia?” »Claro que sí hará justicia. El mal existe, pero su autor no es Dios. El mundo está perdido y ocurren cosas malas. Pero Dios ha provisto la forma de que nosotros, simples seres humanos, seamos restaurados si le prestamos atención.»1 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Cal Thomas, “When calamity is deemed divine,” The Washington Times, 19 septiembre 2001.

El 19 de septiembre de 2001, apenas una semana después del ataque terrorista contra las torres gemelas de Nueva York y el Pentágono de Washington, el periodista estadounidense Cal Thomas, en su columna publicada a nivel nacional, se pronunció acerca del tema en un artículo titulado «Cuando se juzga que la calamidad viene de Dios». He aquí la primera parte de su comentario: «... Dos dirigentes religiosos... dieron a entender que los ataques terroristas de la semana pasada se debieron al juicio de Dios.... »Pero... no son ellos los primeros en vincular el castigo divino a acontecimientos temporales. Abraham Lincoln dijo que la Guerra Civil estadounidense se debió a la esclavitud y a que los Estados Unidos de América se habían olvidado de Dios y estaban intoxicados de un éxito ininterrumpido, y se sentían demasiado orgullosos como para orar al Dios que nos creó. Alejandro Soljenitsyn dijo que el comunismo ahogó a la Unión Soviética durante siete décadas porque su pueblo se había olvidado de Dios. »En la medida en que las calamidades, ya sean naturales o provocadas por los seres humanos, nos llevan a la reflexión y a reorganizar la vida de tal modo que ese mal nos impulsa a hacer el bien, hasta el horror [del 11 de septiembre] puede tener efectos redentores y de ese modo personas inocentes no habrán muerto en vano.... »Hay quienes creen que los Estados Unidos de América es una nación especial, escogida por Dios para recibir una bendición excepcional. Eso es idolatría.... En Isaías 40, Dios dice que a sus ojos todas las naciones son como “una gota de agua en un balde, como una brizna de polvo en una balanza”, pues “no son nada”. Esta afirmación es motivo de humildad y no de fanatismo religioso. »Hay otros interrogantes. Cuando el apóstol Pablo visitó la antigua ciudad de Corinto, prevalecía una inmoralidad desenfrenada. El culto a Afrodita fomentó la prostitución en nombre de la religión. En determinado momento, según [la edición de estudio de] la Nueva Versión Internacional de la Biblia, “mil prostitutas servían en su templo”. ¿Acaso no bastaba ese estilo de vida para que Dios enviara un meteorito que arrasara la ciudad? Sin embargo, a pesar de semejante maldad, Dios no envió su juicio sino que envió a su Hijo en el acto de amor más grande que jamás se haya visto. “Cuando todavía éramos pecadores”, dice la Sagrada Escritura, Dios envió a Jesucristo a morir por nosotros (Romanos 5:8). »Si bien ese mismo Libro sagrado trata acerca de un juicio final en el que todo el mundo tendrá que comparecer ante Dios, así como advierte sobre las consecuencias inmediatas del pecado —desde la enfermedad física hasta la angustia emocional y la muerte—, también dice que Dios “no quiere que nadie perezca sino que todos se arrepientan” (2 Pedro 3:9).»1 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Cal Thomas, “When calamity is deemed divine,” The Washington Times, 19 septiembre 2001.
