Should a God actually have set the universe in motion, is this supposed God responsible for anything?
Is such a God responsible for all that we consider bad? Can such a God in the same vein be responsible for all that we consider good?
You have asked a deeply challenging question to at least Christians who believe in the absolute, totally sovereign of god. The question is why an absolute, totally sovereign god would allow even those who follow him to suffer. This flies in the face of what Jesus in the gospels talked about which were the following; firstly, if you just have a little faith you can move mountains and secondly, god will provide everything you need.
