What makes you think God killed them? What "evidence" do you have?

Let me rephrase;

Hey Drich, there are 20000 children that die each and everyday of starvation alone.

What do they have to do differently to reap the 10x windfall that you seem to be blessed and chosen for?

If what you say is true then it's possable for you alone to end child starvation if you just keep giving it away and getting 10x back.

Why aren't you taking advantage of that Drich? 20000 dying cheldren are praying for God to feed them and you may be gods answer to their prayers.

Ask yourself 'how does God work in this world? How is divine intervention typically accomplished?'

It's through the stewards that has left incharge of various gifts, charges, and even money.

Again in the west he has blessed our nations with an over abundance. Yet we have to pay our farmers not to grow crops so as to not drive the crop price down too much. And what is the result of us hoarding the resources people are told to share? Well as you claim '20k kids die an hour ' then you have the nerve to blame it on God? Do you not see that if you see a need like that God is tasking you responsible to do something... What have you done beside blame God?

I was able to get back 10xs what I gave up because the people I sorrunded myself with were good stewards of what they were given.

How do you know it's your god and not, say, Allah?
And since god is all-powerful, why can't he actually do something?
You'd think that if he loved us as much as you claim he does he'd make things right since, as taught by christianity, he is able to do literally anything. Also, you'd think he would have already forgotten the sin of Adam and Eve and took us back to Eden.

Why are we responsible for dying kids? Why can't god do it himself?

All of them do, but to millions of different heavens.

So god works through "stewards" who prove to be generally inefficient or unmotivated except in a few isolated instances, but it's not god's fault that things are in such a poor state in some parts of the world?

God doesn't care about his creations if god existed of course.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.

Hate to help out Drich here, but the 20,000 starved dead kids everyday might be signs of God's displeasure with something an ancestor done did wrong up to 7 generations back.

or

funny how begats get complicated over the centuries, perhaps the dead kids are Amelekites and god is living up to his promise in wiping them out, albeit, very slowly.

or

all these dead kids are descended from Adam and Eve and original sin is all the reason God needs to off somebody in a tortuously painful bout of lifetime disease and famine

or

God is doing another Job job on somebody and is offing all these kids to test someone else's faith

If it were Allah he is and always have fallen short on supporting his followers.

Quote:And since god is all-powerful, why can't he actually do something?
He has. He has given one people an over a bundance and them a command to feed those in need.

Quote:You'd think that if he loved us as much as you claim he does he'd make things right since, as taught by christianity, he is able to do literally anything.
God's primary concern seems to be focoused on making things 'right' for eternity. In doing so it means hardship in this life.

Quote: Also, you'd think he would have already forgotten the sin of Adam and Eve and took us back to Eden.
Show me in the bible where those sins as well as our Sins did not die with Christ.
Quote:Why are we responsible for dying kids? Why can't god do it himself?
Because God gave us charge over this world. We are responsible for it and each other.

If you dad gave you a car and told you to take care of it because it was your, and you never changed the oil and locked up the motor, is it your dad's fault for giving you the car?

Again if you dad gave you a car and you wrecked it somehow is it your dad's fault for giving the car to you?
