75% is a BS figure and that is exactly the sort of agency that deterministic purveyors seek to avoid. Of course you go right to the children and ignore the agency of their parents or grandparents; emotional leverage is a fast way to lose a philosophical debate.

the planet is not a jolly place my friend
16000 children is not 75% of the population.. There are almost 8 billion people in the world. Hundreds of children, even in Europe are dying every day because of some simple error done in a hospital for a simple disease or surgery.
I will find the report tomorrow. you can google it as well. remember. food, shelter and water on a DAILY basis. it does not mean that they are starving. it means that most people in the world are unfortunate and cannot do much to change their future even if they wanted to
I'll try to be as nice as possible but I don't think you read that article, or you're simply ignoring the fact that it doesn't support your argument at all. So far, all I've seen from you is sophistry. I acknowledge the dark side of the world and my ability to brighten or darken it, that is the agency you're avoiding. You would rather say you've no choice in the matter. The bacteria in your stomach and the conversations you've had made the world terrible not your parents, not your government, and certainly not you.
you seem angry
