God, in Isaiah 45:7, was alleged to have Wrote:I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
He created Heaven, he created Hell, he created sin, he created the Department of Justice prosecuting offenses, and he created flawed humans he knew would be susceptible to temptation only to demand obeisance or eternal punishment despite his creations not being responsible for any of this.
"Free will"? My ass. Dumbass was asking a ball to roll uphill, while stacking the table against it.
The clincher is that if God created everything, he also created choices, thus elimination even any semblance of free will. And even more damning (pun very much intended), God also created the consequences of those choices.
The inescapable conclusion is that God knows which people are going to Hell - because he forced them into it -, but he created them just the same. It seems to me that God could have created only those people who would NOT end up in the fiery fire of fire. He didn't so, you know, fuck God.
