about starving children. an all-loving "god" would never let anyone suffer to that extent based on the conduct of their leaders. the narrator is pointing out that why would an all-loving "god" grant someones wish for a raise, and not feed starving, innocent children. it makes no sense.
i look at the vastness of life on this planet, then the vastness of the universe. a rational person would come to the conclusion that some spook hiding somewhere in the skies did not create all of this. the question has to be asked, what created "god"? what existed before "god"? why would "god" just be sitting somewhere in emptiness and then one day say, hmmm, let me create the universe, and then after doing so, let me create living things. why would it take the time to create over something as trivial as 2000 different species of beetles?
