This is my point. Not to mention that the baby had no idea that it was beneficial, nor did she condone it. As the father, I came from the position of knowledge and authority. I could see the end goal and weigh it against the suffering. My child couldn't.
Quote:If a human being attempted to improve the moral fiber of other people by intentionally starving a child to death, we'd call them a criminal. Why does God get a pass?
Because God, as the Father, comes from a position of knowledge and authority. He sees the end goal.
Well if starving children serve gods goal shall we try to prevent it? Would that interfere with gods plan?
Or should we just let them starve to death because that's what god wants?
Then what's the business with sending food to africa and so on?
