God, on the other hand should be able to save any and all from tragedy and malady. This article would be more on point if it addressed who Christians should curse when an able bodied transcendent deity neglects to step in.

Free will kido, free will. Christians understand this, besides if God healed everyone all the time the world would be full of crazy people like....
I took my mother to her doctor the other day, she was there to have the doctor to look at the progress she was making after a broken hip, he was absolutely amazed at her progress, she's 88 years old and a Christian. But that's not exactly what I want to say. While waiting in the room for the doctor to come in I heard the doctor telling a lady in the room beside mom's that she was going to die. Naturally she became very upset and that's putting it mildly, I can never remember a person sounding so distraught, it hurt me to hear her. I heard a man trying to comfort her but he finally left the room. Before we left I walked over to him and said I heard her and I know it can't be good, I said to him, what the doctor told her I do not need to know nor do I want to know. I said I would be praying for her and him, he thanked me and I left. Seems he had no problem with a prayer and he was loosing a loved one.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
