Reply To: Being sensitive towards tragedy

I don’t understand how you do not see what I wrote, in the words of the Chasam Sofer.
He said: כשרוב עונות גורם
חלילה, הקב”ה נוטל הרב שבהם ר”ל לכפר על הכלל וכעין כפרת פרה אדומה
“When there are a multitude of sins chalilah, Hashem takes the greatest of them Rl, in order to forgive the community like the redemption of the Parah Adumah.”
