I've seen enough of gods moral virtue. The christian one anyway.
You should be asking yourself why you an the rest of humanity allows these children to die, there is enough food in this world to feed everyone, yet nothing is being done about it. Why? Could it have to do with love of money, love of self, I'm just one person what can I do, space travel that will not help the starving children, wasted money on fancy cars, homes and clothing, feeding our fat bellies till we complain we've eaten to much, shall I go one I'm sure there are at least a 1000 more reasons man cares so little. The pastor should have answered you like this, God has put us here to help those in need, we are the physical hands and feet of God, we are to go and do for others, give of ourselves. Now I'm sure that many atheist here will respond for different reasons but none will admit it is our (human race) responsibility to give up all the stuff we think we deserve to help those who are in need. God help us all!

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
