I don't think its ignorance to question why a supposedly all loving and all powerful being would inflict illnesses on innocent children. Especially when the theists answers either consist of it being due to the sin of a talking snake tricking some woman to eat an apple or that god has a plan for them, despite them sometimes only living a matter of days, weeks or months due to the illness he gave them.
