This makes sense from the perspective of a worshiper of Yahweh, who regularly visited plagues and death even on those people whom he considered his chosen nation. Sometimes it was for things other people did (such as massacring 70,000 of them because their king took a census, or killing the baby he bore during an adulterous affair) and sometimes it was because of something they did (Miriam was stricken with leprosy for criticizing Moses, Uzzah was struck dead for trying to keep the ark of the covenant from falling over).

And these were people who already believed! How much harsher would god be with people who believed he didn't exist and blasphemed against him? He'd probably strike that person's whole family with cancer, then kill half of his neighbors just to drive the point home. Which would be something like "aren't you convinced that I am a just and loving god yet?"
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Followers of Charles Thompson in his church, the Congregation of Jehovah’s Presbytery of Zion, also known as the Baneemyites, were to their credit, 100% sincere and believing and faithful in their religion. Even to the point of following Thompson to an otherwise remote area of western Iowa and founding the town of Preparation.

Turns out, however, Thompson was a crook, and took advantage of his followers and by subterfuge gained title to all their lands and buildings. And what of his teachings and his church, since it was all a scam for him to make some money ?

ROFLOL

And he actually asked y'all how to stop being an asshole?

Actually many great Americans as well as South Koreans fought and died side by side in that war to free my mother her remaining siblings and her parents...( My grandfather fought against the Americans in WWII not the Korean War. By then he was too old. Wink)

What makes you think 'good' has anything to do with an easy existence? Nothing 'good' comes easy.
