The whole area of disease and consequent human suffering presents huge problems, IMHO, to anyone who tries to be rational but believes in a benevolent creator. Like, why include bone cancer in the created design? Was that the best He could do?

Not really, there's gross foetal developmental deformities and rabies.

I have contemplated things like this also.

My short and sweet answer is there is no happiness without sadness, there is no feeling good without sickness.

I have often wondered why some things have to go to the extent they do like when you ask yourself how can god let that happen? Well I believe that is Satan's work. We humans have free will and the human body is not perfect.

Just my opinion.

I won't argue theology further with you Waggs, unless you venture to use it to justify policy.

This Is Donny's Plague Now
The first coronavirus spike in late April can be blamed on the president*’s negligence. The second spike in June is his own doing.

CDC says U.S. has 'way too much virus' to control pandemic as cases surge across country

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/06/29/...s-country.html

The coronavirus is spreading too rapidly and too broadly for the U.S. to get it under control as some other countries have, Dr. Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Monday.

The U.S. stands in stark contrast to countries like South Korea, New Zealand and Singapore as it continues to report over 30,000 new infections per day.

"This is really the beginning," Schuchat said of the U.S.'s recent surge in new cases.

It was all so simple. Just follow the recommendations of the doctors and experts instead of relatives and hired yes men when the warnings first came. Simple as that. Now we're trying to catch a forest fire.
