A QUESTIONS & ANSWERS EXCHANGE

From time to time we receive probing questions from Sentinel readers—and we hear about thoughtful inquiry going on among other individuals as well. They're asking about spirituality, truth, good and evil, the demanding moral challenges of our time. The Sentinel itself seems a good place to explore some of those questions together. So here is our first installment of "A Questions & Answers Exchange." The questions in this and several upcoming columns have been culled from letters to us and conversations shared with us. Answers come from Sentinel contributors and readers whom we asked to address the inquiries. In the future we also hope to include questions and responses sent directly to this column (see address at end) as well as comments from the editorial staff.

These columns are not intended to give definitive answers to subjects that call for prayer, study, and individual listening and action. But our hope is that the questions and responses will offer some light, as we are walking side by side in a common quest for greater spiritual understanding.

Q. How can you possibly say that there is no evil after the events of the Holocaust in Nazi Germany?—from a Holocaust survivor in London, who lost most of her family in the Nazi concentration camps
