No, your assertion that a child dying of cancer might be part of God's ultimate plan.

Just how sick is your God?!

P.S Your hope is a false hope.

Like I said: learn what a strawman argument is.

4.) There may be a need deeper than just the physical one to which God is giving attention.
So if there is this deeper need, god is unable to address both that deeper need and kid cancer successfully, so he's not all powerful, or he doesn't bother to address both and so he is not all loving.

And neither do anyone. Anyone who claims he knows god, he is a liar.

People die all the time, what is your moral objection to God the creator taking a life that He has given when and how He sees fit?

Well the claim you made certainly seems to imply that you think you are omniscient.

Seems the anti-God squad can only thumb down questions and can't actually attempt to answer them.

I don't know anything about god, and noone else does either.

I don't think it was only the anti-God squad who were thumbing you down.

Oh, not at all.
I know what I know and I know what I'm not certain about. I usually avoid those subjects. Like domestic agro politics, and some other areas.

This comes over like "I don't want to know anything about God."

C.S. Lewis said that at one time the thought of him searching for God was as foreign to him as the idea of a mouse searching for a cat. Maybe that's the realm you are presently in.

I think we spend a good deal of time in that realm. But there may be in life at least one or two times when for some reason you will want to reach out to God and wish to know God.

A time like this may occur in your life.
