Thank you for your response.
Have you ever ask yourself the question WHY we deserve to die? Really think about it before going into auto-Christian-answer mode and start rambling about Adam and Eve and their disobedience at the deception of the serpent.
What did YOU do PERSONLLY that was SO bad that you deserve death? Sin? Was it YOUR choice to be born with a sinful nature? Did you choose to be born a sinner, in a sinful world overflowing with sinful influence? If you did...then maybe yes you DO deserve death. But a glaring fact that people seem to fail to realize is that our ALL POWERFULL LORD is the author of everything. Everything. Everything! Yes...everything.
It is an extremely hard pill for a lot of people to swallow.
God is very rightfully given credit for all of the good things and beauty in life. But somehow all of the negative aspects...well...us far lesser, rediculously limited beings are completely responcible for that.

"For the wages of sin is death..." Romans 6:23
It may be a hard pill to swallow, and I know a lot of people who have a hard time swallowing it, but it IS the truth. Frankly, I don't see all those "negative things" you purport. All the bad in this world, all the death, destruction, disease, it's all a result of evil and sin in this world. I can't blame God for that.
