Saying that God is perfect when he "creates" babies with cancer and without inner organs because we can't know his will is the end of the discussion because not only is all logic thrown out the window and anything can be evidence of of God's intelligent perfect design, but it also shows the obscenity of person who holds that opinion, it's really no different when William Lane Craig claimed that killing all those children in the old testament by God's orders was good for them because they went straight to heaven.
We are dealing here with people who would defend Hitler himself and his gas chambers if Bible said he was a good guy, and those butchers under God's orders in OT were not any better.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
