If you see injustice and oppression then feel free to act upon it.In other words, god doesn't do things out of love or justice. He does things simply because he can and no one can stop him. In other words, might makes right. I also have the right to do thins, but I also have compassion and a sense of empathy that tells me just because I have the right to do something doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.
You're just making unfounded suppositions. How do you come to the conclusion that God doesn't do things out of love and justice? I think what you're really saying is that God does things that you don't like or think are right.
