Does God Protect Christians and Turn His Back on Whales?

While Christians believe mankind's sin has brought pain and suffering into the world, they believe they are immune, if only they pray for safety and protection.

 

Christians delude themselves when they believe God will help them.

 

Places in the oceans are named "Garbage Patches" where for thousands of miles you can see items thought to have been disposed of correctly float. Televisions, shoes, toothpaste tubes, refrigerators, fishing nets and on and on. Consider what happens to a juvenile humpback with a loop of netting snared around its fin: A the whale grows. the nylon line will carve through flesh and bone until the animal dies---slowly, painfully---from its infected wounds. With animals that are entangled, you can see the weight loss, their bones coming through. When you see animals that have been entangled for a long time there are parasites.

 

If God will not protect the whale, and innocent member of his creation, how egotistical are Christians to believe God will protect them, as members of the human species that has generally rejected him?
