It would seem that in God’s temples, that is, in churches, mosques and other prayer houses (as with these buildings in general) should not nothing would be catastrophic since they are under the protection of the Almighty. And the energy of hundreds, and even thousands parishioners daily praying in temples, cleansing space around them the ringing of bells, as well as the inviting chant of the muezzins, help protect such cathedrals from any shocks. And this even there is documentary evidence.
Bombs are not terrible for God’s temple
On the island of Malta is the largest Christian temple in Europe – church of st. Mary, which was built in the mid-nineteenth century at the expense of parishioners. Residents of the Bridge decided to erect in their a small town cathedral, which would be in its decoration, and size, not inferior to the Roman temple of St. Petra. And they succeeded, suffice it to say that one dome of this grand cathedral is thirty-seven meters in diameter. It is magnificent the temple, like the Eiffel Tower in Paris, is visible from anywhere in Malta.

And this is exactly what is connected with this church, one might say, truly miraculous event that occurred during the second world war. IN St. Mary on the ninth of April 1942 was traditionally served about three hundred parishioners, who in their prayers asked the Almighty to end the fratricidal war, about peace and quiet life.
However, as they say, the ways of the Lord are mysterious, and therefore over the temple just at that moment a German bomber flew by who, for some strange reason, didn’t reset, fulfilling his a deadly mission, three bombs, carrying them now back to base. Naturally, the pilot of the plane was looking for where to throw this ballast, and here such a beautiful target – a huge temple, in a large the dome of which he directed all three charges.
However, none of the three bombs exploded. Two generally flew away from the dome and buried in the ground a little away from the cathedral, and the third still pierced the roof of the church and fell at the feet of the parishioners, scaring them to death, but not even hurt anyone.

The Maltese still believe: the one inexplicable no logic, the fact why the bombs didn’t burst (so that of the three – not alone, this simply cannot be!), proves that true power faith in God can do real miracles. Parishioners of Maltese the temple still stores an unexploded bomb that pierced the dome Cathedral, as a sacred relic …
Almost the same thing and at the same time, only in a brighter form occurred in Smolensk. The Nazis practically erased from the face of the earth this glorious Russian city, leaving him alone ruins, even single-story houses were seriously affected, not to mention high-rises. And only churches, including the main building Smolensk temple, standing on the highest hill of the city, remained safe and sound. Almost also mystically survived during War of God Churches of Ancient Novgorod, Vitebsk, Moscow Region Zvenigorod and many other cities of Russia.

Why do not all of God’s temples have protection from above?
And yet, why aren’t all of God’s temples protected from shocks? For example, a very recent case – in April 2016, during religious holiday in the Indian city of Paravur, in the building the Hindu temple Puttingal exploded pyrotechnics, which killed and several hundred people suffered because on this holiday a lot of people gathered – about fifteen thousand people.

Okay, this tragedy can be explained to some extent. “demonic fireworks”, but last September no less a terrible tragedy occurred in Mecca when the largest mosque al-Haram, where the main shrine of Islam Kaaba is stored, suddenly falls high-rise construction crane, and falls due to a sudden powerful gust of wind. And more than a hundred people who sincerely believe in Allah …
An even more surprising case has occurred recently, literally the first of May, on Easter (!) it burned down in New York on Manhattan Orthodox Church St. Savva. True, a fire occurred when there was already nobody in the cathedral, and therefore no one but the guard of the building was not injured in this case, and yet …

Do not be lazy, open the Internet and look for tragedies, occurring in God’s temples. There are dozens of them, and possibly hundreds. IN prayer places fires occur and parishioners crush friend in panic friend, terrorists burst into the church and shoot people there – and there is no number for this lawlessness …
Why does the Almighty turn away from temples and people, worshipers in them? There is no answer, just as there is no answer to the main question, which worries, probably, every person: why in this world so much suffering and injustice why with impunity the most terrible atrocities remain and why on Earth thrives a bunch of illuminati striving to destroy humanity? Or us mortals, never understand the great business of God? ..
