Third Watch Quote

Carlos: This one nun, she was alright, she used to say, "Carlos, you think you are an orphan, you are not. You've got a father. God is your father and he is looking after you." And then, you know, I'd say t"Well, he's not doing a very good job." Do I believe it, that god's watching? Looking down on the kid, that he sees all the stuff that we see, you know? If he does, where is he? Huh? Why doesn't he stop it?
Doc: You don't get it.
Carlos: What is it that I don't get it?
Doc: We're on our own, man. I mean, he gave us freedom.
Carlos: Oh, right. That's a great idea to give us the freedom to get a little smack going so we can fold our kid up like an aarcordian just see how it feels.
Doc: Believe it or don't believe it. It's up to you. But you ought ask youself, when you die and you meet God....
Carlso: What will I say to him? I'll say, "How dare you!" Yeah, how dare you make a world where kids suffer and die? You let this stuff happen And we're supposed to love you and light candles and spring for a dollar evertime a guy comes around in church with a basket. (Doc scoffs,) Hey, hey, I know. He's testing us. That's what they tell you in church. If there was an election, for God, I would not vote for the one we have got now. No, not until he rode with us the bus, just one day.
Kim: Don't sit too close, Bobby. Ground might open up.
Bobby: Yeah, or the lighting.
Kim: At least then we'd know there is something out there.
Carlos: Doc, we ride together. How can you believe in God after seeing what we see?
Doc: I think you've got it all wrong. I mean, the questions is, how can you believe in man?
