==Theology of retribution== | |||
The theology of retribution is a belief system characterized by the notion that bad things only happen to bad people. For example, if person A loses their home to a flood, in the theology of retribution, this is proof person A has sinned and therefore must repent to avoid further calamity. This postulate also implies that good things happen to good people, and is the basis of prosperity gospel and scam churches et. al. | |||
