How are the believers going to know right from wrong? Some people have to do wrong so the believers can learn from them and also guard against those people's wrongs, and so people have to be created to not notice him and carry on as they please. In addition, in this verse, it is not that bad of a deal for the non-believers because they are not bound by anything and can carry on as they like.

This has to be one of the sickest things I have ever heard a follower of God say. You need the non-believers? Then quit pushing your religion.
