Quix, post #1200,
Nevertheless, I believe that Almighty All Loving God is mercifully with the suffering in ways we can't quite discern from this limited side of the whole picture.
There are many stories of angelic visitations and comforting ushering into heaven's gates at moments of horrid disasterous deaths.
I trust God. HE DOES ALL THINGS WELL AND RIGHT.
AGREED.
