The problem of evil/suffering when it comes to children

I'll ask you too, why is it you believe God should clean up the mess that man has made for himself, actually He has through Christ but that's for another day. I said in my first post I have no idea why God allowed this terrible event to happen, I'm not omniscient. Could it be that God allowed this to move you into action against such horrible events, did you respond, what have you done. The way I see it atheist should stop blaming God for what man has become through the evolution they believe in and don't give me not all atheist believe in evolution, the only other option is God and you title (atheist) removes you from this belief.

Translation: "It's our fault." Already addressed it (in the OP), but thanks for being predictable. Atheists don't blame god for anything because we don't believe he exists. Get it through your skull.

Right man's fault. You even read the other post by atheist, it's blame, blame, blame God in all of them. If you don't believe then quit blaming God, everyone.

Hey silly, man is destroying the spotted owls habitat, man's fault.

Hey silly, the Spotted Owl has started interbreeding with the Barred Owl, which is directly impacting its numbers in the wild, so even if we leave its habitat alone, it may still perish due to its breeding habits. They're teaching us all kinds of crazy things in high school biology these days (or at least they were back before I graduated in '06).

Didn't they teach you why these owls are interbreeding, or did you just happen to for get. Let's take a simple look at what's happening, man has destroyed the spotted owls habitat thus less spotted owls to breed with and they turned to breeding with another owl, funny isn't it how they know they can breed with a certain owl for successful breeding. So all in all man started this by destroying habitat, yes man's fault.

Just because you do not believe doesn't mean a thing to the child's eternal life, just your's. Yes it comforts me greatly to know this child no longer suffers at the hand of evil and is with God forever. I would say the reason you find what I believe as revolting is because you know at this point in your life you do not have it.

Just because you believe in eternal life, doesn't change the fact that there is no evidence of such a thing. Children are comforted by thoughts of Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, but none of those things are real, and you have no evidence that your god is any different.

I have positive evidence that God and all He promises is real, you don't except it because you've never experienced it. Santa and the Tooth Fairy might excite children but comfort, no.

The reason your beliefs are revolting is that they demand that you point to an ancient, blood-thirsty, pro-war, pro-rape, pro-genocide fictional character as the creator of the Universe and the source of all goodness, love, and morality therein. Your imaginary friend is imaginary, and if he weren't then he would be an evil monster for reasons I have already explained. The fact that you are able to do the mental gymnastics to ignore this is a testament to the damage religion does to people.

  You've disproved nothing ever, only assumptions you want to believe because you don't want God as part of your life. If that's what you want why is it a reason to run down others.
