In some countries today it's as high as 20%, the bulk of those deaths from preventable (with modern medicine) disease, dirty water, and poor nutrition, not exactly peaceful, non-suffering ways of dying. Interesting vids, thanks for sharing.
My pleasure to see you see 20/20.

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.
Yes and the Christian----His laws are for us, not for him. He created us and owns us. Dumb to dumber.
