These people totally ignore God and so they end up dying in their own sins and spend their eternities in Hell.
Yes, in some cases, undeserved traumas befall them and us. Unjust losses must be suffered. But then what is done with these experiences is really what counts.
Take Dax Xenos, the main character of this movie, for example. What a wasted life he lived.
He did suffer unjustly but then he moved on to fornicate, to use, abuse, kill, etc. In the end, he was shot dead by a sniper fighting for the same tyrant that he himself helped bring rise to power.
He never thought of God, he never questioned God's purpose for his life. He never thought of thinking why God permitted these events into his life and what could he do with them to help God reach people.
He never forgave but lived on from one vendetta to another. Never once did Dax Xenos wonder what his life was to be for.
He lived in the moment. He met one woman who could have given his life some substance but he spurned her too when she could not bring him a son.
Had he paused to think of God's purpose for his life, he might have lived it in a different way. He could have glorified God and blessed people.
Instead, he lived a crazy, disordered, and yes, diabolical life. This dictator El Rojo gave him the opportunity to leave to Europe, rebuild his life there, find a love, start over.
What a good worthwhile life his would have been. But no, he gave no place to God. Instead he lived for who knows what?
Now for you, what would you have done in his place, dearest reader?
Let's say you have a trauma in your childhood as did Dax Xenos. Your family was massacred.
And you made the forgivable mistake of taking the law into your hands and the machine gun was put into your hands by the avenging revolutionary, El Rojo. And yes, you killed all seven killers of your family.
And then you suffer another tragedy. The family that took you in for shelter later was also killed.
But you escaped. However, despite your escape, you got your insides tormented. Then is the time to seek God for relief.
After all, Jesus said, Come to me those of you who labor and are heavy laden. Will you take Jesus on his offer or will you turn your back to him and run the rest of your life into the ground as did Dax Xenos?
Its your call, dear friend.
