That is pre-supposing that there is a ‘loving God’. If this God was so loving and caring why does he or she allow the untold misery that afflicts millions of people and in particular innocent children?
The God cheerleaders will no doubt point out that we were given free will and it is our doing that these miseries occur and when the times comes we will be punished.
I too used to believe that Lemmings committed suicide SPUGGIE J. So you were not alone.
It was only when many years ago a programme on telly shattered that myth that I learned otherwise.
I have never heard anything about octopuses giving up their life for the sake of the little ones though. So maybe they do but I’m not interested enough to try and find out.
