Notice the use of the word "just". No atheist is claiming that children ar "just" those things, yet he slips the word into his description. A loving god would be ashamed of dishonest apologists. Decent Christians should be embarrassed by people like this.
If atheism were true, and children were just accidental aggregations of stardust in an amoral purposeless blind pitiless indifferent cosmos…
What would children deserve?
