Why Does God allow Bad Things to Happen to People?

We have people of faith and others that do not even believe in God that listen to our show. One question I get from people who do not believe is why would God allow all of the bad thing that happens to people. Some even go on to say that they have no desire to worship a God that could allow these things to happen. So we are going to open up the floor to let everybody air out their opinion on this topic. Should be another great discussion and I hope to gain a lot of new facts from this show.
