That's not the perspective religious people have, obviously. Think of a parent-child relationship, and how much of that also matches up with what you're saying. The power dynamic is the same, but the way the parent feels about the child is way different.
No parent would torture their children for their wish for independent life. Theists like to suggest that God's standard for afterlife judgment is so rough(How else can you motivate people to follow Magic?), that unless your with Him your very likely to get ultimate torture as a just punishment.
Animals can't even beg people for mercy, they just get hell till death just because they provide profit, which is a really depressing situation.
