Oh good one but you missed something. God is supposedly all knowing. So he'd know what pain is like, how suffering felt and would also know how to remove all of that. To know everything means exactly that. It's because he knows everything that is to be known about it means failure to help or even think of that persons pain would be at most careless and would mean far from all loving. So why bother worshiping him?
Here's another point. God created everything right? Well that would mean he created cancer, tumas, blindness, pain, depression and everything that would full under the category of negative/unpleasant. Can't be all loving can he? All in all.....god is one big selfish arsehole.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
