Christians all over the United States will repeat maniacally that "God is Good". I believe this to be due to the fact that most Christians are afraid to shatter their cute, little image of a loving, caring father figure. Let's consider the ways in which God is certainly not good.
First, prayer. If a child learns about God in the United States, Christian churches glow with pride for another lost soul saved. Christians also say that God will now watch out for that child and all that happens in the Child's future will work out for the will of God.
