How do you allow the killing of babies on a mass scale and 16 year olds to die of cancer? That is not a loving God who intervenes.
God sees death differently than you, I or the most intelligent person on earth. And yet you claim to judge him by YOUR puny standard?
Death isn’t even the worst thing that can happen to a person.
yldstrk, you are hurt....and like so many have been hurt badly somewhere in your past....I understand...so does God.
No one was more ‘hurt’ than Gods son...no one...and he understands ‘your’ pain now.... and loves you “now”....
God gave us freewill, it is in many ways his greatest gift to us... with that freewill so many have choose to do evil....and yet with that same freewill....millions upon millions choose to put their faith in Jesus Christ....to surrender their life to Him.
The evil in this world is not God...but a byproduct of that ‘freewill’.....
....the good is also a product of His love thru Christ.
Hope this helps you in the hurt you have today.
You are in my prayers.
Humans have free will, they kill, and do other harm, on their own. God is not in that.
As for the cancer...I do not know. We will all die, sometimes the means is different.

The answers are in the Bible. Seek God for them — if you dare. The book of Job is instructive. There is a scripture (let me challenge you to find it) stating that, if we believe that God exists and is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him, we will find Him.
You can accuse all the gods of the various religions for not intervening, but you cannot accuse the Christian God of not intervening, because not only did he intervene, he did in a way that was unimaginably personal, taking on all the suffering upon himself.
