God didn't kill them. That is the wrong way to look at this. Long ago, He made a promise when He did wipe out humanity, that He would never do it again. But, there are natural occurances that wreak havoc on our lives. It is a fact of existence.

I would suggest you read the Book of Job.

Are you saying God has no control over their lives?

"He made a promise when He did wipe out humanity, that He would never do it again."

Actually, the promise was that he would never completely wipe us out by flood again. The next time is by fire.

Been a while since I read those passages.

However, as I recall, I believe God said

he would not destroy mankind

AGAIN *WITH* WATER.

Fire is scheduled this time.

Yeah, that's a good place to start. Job also demanded an explanation of God as to why so many bad things were happening (to him, specifically). God basically told him to sit down and shaddup.

No, He only said He wouldn't destroy it again with water.

There is no such thing as a 'natural occurance'.
All the divine interventionist, anti-evolutionists have proved that. Not a sparrow falls, but it's God's own personal direct eeevil fault.

God is not superior to Satan, he just has a better book agent.
