The only answers I've ever seen (other than flat out denial) were that 'they went to heaven, so who cares if they died' Sad or something to the effect that god is infinite, so he must have a reason for what he is doing. Of course, they go into this with the unshakable preconcieved notion that god is omnibenevolent. If they were to examine his actions objectively for a moment, they would realize that their argument boils down to 'because he can, therefore it is morally correct, because he did it' when the same actions by another person would be seen as horrible.
