You are wrong in your assumption that God would spare the kids -after all, not only would He only be killing the bodies (not the souls), but also, HE IS GOD and has that right. Observe:
Matthew 5:45 Holy Bible, KJV
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Joshuah 10:36-40, Holy Bible, KJV 36And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:
37And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein. 38And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it: 39And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah, and to her king. 40So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.
No - you are wrong - when God sends punishment (or allows man to punish himself by polluting the environment), he is just. God will make right in the end, but to stop this carnage now would be stoppping us from learning our lesson. LOL
So you can easily picture Jesus slaughtering children? If that were the message He should have demonstrated - you know, dashed a few of those kids who came to him to bits on some rocks or something (instead of blessing and complementing them all). That would settle it then.

You said: "I guess the good news is that the babies and and under age children He kills get to go to heaven, right?"
You are probably wrong - the kids may go to heaven temporarily (as in Abraham's Bosom), but this does *NOT* guarantee their *eternal* salvation: THAT is probably determined by their free will choice during the 1,000-Year Millenium era
But what an advantage!!! They get to hear the rich man begging for water day after day without receiving any. That should help them make the *right* choice!
And those scientist who said the earthquake frequency is "normal" this year are idiots. That's what they always say to calm the public so news doesn't cause panic. But they do think we're retarded? Anyone with half a brain can tell for themselves inside of their mind, ok maybe what's been happening is not completely normal. It doesn't make sense to anyone. Volcanoes have been erupting more than usual, earthquakes have been happening more than usual, my guess is that this hurricane season is going to take the cake as well. But of course, this is all normal.
But you said this:

It's really hard to understand your reasoning here. I specifically asked you earlier in the thread if you thought the statistics were fabricated. You responded above. Have you read the statistics? That is what shows if earthquakes are on the rise or not.
What happens inside of your mind does not affect the statistics. So once and for all - do you believe the statistics or not? If you do then it is a normal year, right? If you don't believe the statistics then please just say so (plainly).
UNBELIEVABLE!! Talk about the hardness of one's heart......
He said: But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Who will render to every man according to his deeds.....
The hardness of some of your hearts are showing, couldn't hide it if you wanted to.....sad. Let me tell you something though, you can try an figure Him out, mold Him and bend Him to your understanding if you like, yet, YET, nothing of what you do, or say for that matter, has any bearing on HIM being GOD!
Again, He said: How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
Some will come, of that I'm convinced. Exactly when...don't know for sure, but I pray it's soon, for their sake! WAKE UP PEOPLE! It's not the same day!
