How do you differentiate a good god from an evil God, if allowing children to be raped is what a good god does?
Further to this:
God also set the rules up in the first place, apparently. So he decided that child rape would be an integral part of his plan, when he presumably could have just not had it at all, and had the same outcomes. That makes it a conscious choice on his part, which achieves nothing extra.
How can a god even have a "plan" anyway? If it's guaranteed to work, it's not a plan, it's a pre-drawn conclusion. Calling it a plan implies something or someone can actually thwart it. What would that be?
