Thank you for the very detailed explanation of how my thinking is flawed and what the truth really is.

God is not a tyrant, nor does he enjoy causing us misery. Let me actually restate that. God doesn't even bestow misery upon us. The misery that man kind suffers is brought upon only by man kind itself. Why didn't God create a perfect world, and human beings absolutely perfect? Because he blessed us with free will. What would humans be without free will? With free will, we get to choose to love, choose to believe, and choose to do good, which is what gets us into heaven. Why would God have forced us to love everything including himself? Then it wouldn't have even been love, it would have just been a part of us that we couldn't even control. So God blessed us with free will, so that we could choose to do good things, so that it's actually meaningful, given that we could choose to hate or do bad things. That's where the evil, hate, and suffering came from. Humans suffer because humans bring it upon themselves, not because God throws misery upon us. We choose to not believe in him, we choose to be selfish, and we choose to hurt others because we don't care or believe in him. He new that humans would rebel agains him, he knew that humans would be sinful, and he knew that humans would create hate, but that's the price to pay for the ability to love, and believe.

The millions of kids that suffer everyday brought it upon themselves? According to what you just posted God created humans gave them the ability and desire to sin then threatened infinite torture for sin. The only way to get to heaven is to bow down and praise his greatness while asking for forgiveness for doing what he made you want to do. Your god is either impotent or chooses not to act the latter being very despicable. God if all powerful is also responsible for natural disasters.

How very intelligent of you.

Your argument was filled with flaws. It'll take too long to point them all out.

Then point out a few.
