I'm playing devil's advocate and acting like I believe in God, so we can argue from the same viewpoint.

My problem with your logic is clear. You believe in God. God is ultimate. God can therefore prevent innocent children from having things like leukemia (since it's his design).

Since he didn't prevent it when he created our DNA, then it's by choice. God doesn't make mistakes.

There's my logic.

My actual belief is that nobody is to blame and flaws in biology and (cough) evolution (cough) causes these things to happen.

The difference is that I don't believe that God created mankind, unlike you, so I'm struggling with the fact that you have blamed mankind for things they have no control of (such as preventing children having leukemia) but God remains blameless even though he supposedly has the power to do literally anything, including creating genetics which don't result in the painful deaths of millions of children.
