So, I just have to ask you, what wrong did the child carrying a malaria parasite do in order to endure such suffering? It must have been something really terrible. Especially counting in the famine, other diseases, poor living conditions etc. that he or she has to go through. Yeah, those bloody sinful African children most definitely deserve that, because they have got selfish ambitions and god is teaching them a lesson!
Or wait..
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
