Personal account: two friends experienced SIDS (crib death/sudden infant death) and responded differently — one drew closer to God, one turned away

John describes two friends who each lost an infant to SIDS within about six months of each other. One couple drew closer to God through the grief; the other pushed away. John uses this to argue that how people respond to evil and tragedy often reveals what is already in their hearts rather than constituting a logical refutation of God.
