By Mormon Doctrine I would suggest that Living in America is the WORST POSSIBLE place to be born IF obtaining the Celestial Kingdom is the goal.
D&C Section 10 And I also beheld that all children who die before they arrive at the years of accountability are saved in the celestial kingdom of heaven.
Child mortality, also known as under-5 mortality, refers to the death of infants and children under the age of five. In 2009, 8.1 million children under five died, down from 8.8 million in 2008, and 12.4 million in 1990. About half of child deaths occur in Africa. Approximately 60 countries make up 94% of under five child deaths. Reduction of child mortality is the fourth of the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals.
In 2009, there were 31 countries reported in which at least 10% of children under five died. All were in Africa, except for Afghanistan. The highest 10 were:
In deaths per thousand
Chad - 209
Afghanistan - 199
Democratic Republic of the Congo - 199
Guinea-Bissau - 193
Sierra Leone - 192
Mali - 191
Somalia - 180
Central African Republic - 171
Burkina Faso - 166
Burundi - 166

Are you not concerned about the relative health of any religious groups that consign young children to either purgatory, a lake of fire or just give a shrug of the shoulders?

How exactly does that make Mormonism sick? The LDS Church isn't out there actually causing the deaths of any of those children.

Yeah, TMB is just being his usual self. The "B" doesn't stand for "Builder."
