I can think of dozens of better ways for a god to show its love for us, like eradicating all disease, enough food growing on the planet for everyone to eat, naturally-occurring beer fountains, making donuts make us lose weight, and naked Fridays (after making everyone look sexy, naturally).
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
