For your point to be valid, you need God to have some control of most or all of people's actions.
Since I believe God judges you on the basis of your responses to the truths revealed to you (as we have been discussing for many posts), it is about as fair as a world can be that consists of people that have free.
Hmm. ‘Free’ to inevitably suffer the consequences of choices made by people perhaps thousands of years ago, and perhaps thousands of miles away? That’s not free or just.
It is the very definition of 'free'. As far as just, the principle does not in any way apply to the circumstances we find ourselves. Actions and intentions can be just, circumstance just are.
