I will assume what you stated is fact, babies get eaten live by parasites. From my perspective God doesn't let anything happen. He has already done the work and is letting us "sink or swim" as the ebb of time rolls on. Trying to suppose what God sees as the outcome is imponderable and outside of my frame of reference. Why does science let babies get eaten alive by parasites?
Science is not an omnipotent deity who could ensure immediately that not a single baby was ever born into suffering and poverty, eaten by bacteria and parasites from the inside, unable to eat because their is not food in the barren desert in which they are born.
You claim God is loving and compassionate, but what compassionate being could ever idly stand by and ignore it when they have the power to stop it right now and forever?
