Again two dimensional thinking.
How is being called back home to a God that loves you doing nothing?
Because he allowed the child be abused and die from his injuries. It's hard for me to believe that I once subscribed to this same twisted thought process. You will rationalize anything to let God off the hook, even suggesting that allowing a child to be tortured is a justifiable and moral means to "call him home". Why couldn't your omnipotent God have "called the child home" before he had to suffer the abuse? You telling me that God can't do that, or just that he won't?
