On April 15 1912 the RMS Titanic sank in the North Atlantic

On April 15, 1912, the RMS Titanic sank in the North Atlantic. Supposed to be “unsinkable,” there weren’t enough life boats and over 1500 people died in the frigid waters. A man who heard the news of the tragedy prayed to G-d, asking how He could let such a thing happen.

“Al-mighty G-d,” the man said. “You are all-powerful. You control the sea and the dry land, the heavens and the earth. Why did you let this tragedy occur? How is it that you did not stop the Titanic from sinking, and allowed all those people to perish?”

“Are you kidding?!” G-d replied. “Do you have any idea what I had to do to get all those people on one boat?!”
