Did he not foresee the consequences of creating such a place given the nature of the creatures he made?
How is creating a method of eternal torment for any reason ever justifiable?

Quote:b-Should any creator (omniscient or not) be morally culpable for it's creations when granted the gift of volition or choice.

Absolutely. He not only knew the proclivities of his creation, he defined the nature and limits of that creation. Even if he didn't, if something is created that gets out of control the creator is responsible.

Evey time I hear a theist propose this argument I realize they envision an incredibly evil and/or wholly incompetent god.
