But when you are talking about evil that the state may do,
perhaps you are referring to perversions of members of the state?
When members of the state pervert state laws that are 'good',
perhaps condemning 'innocent' persons?
Sure, that can happen too, but they are supposed to be ministers of good unto the population.
There are mysteries.
Ok, so if the ruler is a tyrant and evil workmen abound, then perhaps consider that in general the people would not repent, and the people were in general being evil, so the wrath of God came upon them? The good and the evil might get caught up in large political upheavals like this.

The holy bible also mentions the 'Man Of Sin' and so, perhaps strangely there may be events that are occurring because of the evil of a person, somehow 'outside' of the power of God? (I somehow wonder if this is ever possible?)
By the way, vod, I was a non-believer for over 30 years of my life, and if I can be forgiven, then perhaps you can too. I had a rough conversion. Don't mock me.
