Do you have any proof to back up this unwarranted assumption?

The devil owns the world...if youre a very good and so-called "HOLY" person...he wants to get rid of you...why waste your energy on competition when you can remove him...and if youre an evil dude...you seem to live forever cos the devil finds you very helpful...

Don't put your theology in the hands of Billy Joel.
Read Revelation chapter 21. Evil loses!
And how do you measure goodness in a man? We are ALL full of sin!

Because the good are idealistic (read: foolish) and think themeself invincible due to the nature of their optimism and, usually, their youthful innocence. By contrast, the evil are more pessimistic, and thus more cautious (as they themselves are evidence of the horrible realities of the world), and are able to live longer for such precautions.

My father was a violent drunk and died aged 43.
In my opinion it was the best thing he ever done.
In reality 43 is quite young. My mother is in her 70s and she is a good person.
So i don't agree with that saying

What about Rodney Dangerfield? He lived to an old age.

When a person reaches majority they are supposed to be good and smart. Half a loaf may be better than none, but half a brain isn't. lol

"good" is relative; "young" is relative.
All people die, young, old, good, bad, and all measures inbetween. I think we just notice it more when an innocent dies at an early age, no one really notices when someone wicked dies at an early age. Just my opinion.

Because Billy Joel said so.
