What God would murder children just so the living could act out for Him? That's what the Devil would do. Not God.

God doesn't "murder" anybody. There is death, a result of a humanity that once sought to be like God. And death happens in many ways.

Instead of imputing "motives" to God when there are hurricanes or natural disasters, large numbers of believers choose to do what they are able to alleviate misery and suffering. Like Job, we overcome the temptation to question why some of these things happen, because we know that Our Father knew us from all eternity, created us, and loves us immeasureably.

You don't trust God very much, do you? If you did, you wouldn't be so concerned with your miserable tax dollars going to alleviate human suffering.
