If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?

If you don't care, then you are content with injustice. I have no problem with that.

We have an ethical duty to enforce (wrong word perhaps, I can't think of another) justice. If you're talking about a just God, he can do no other. Just like you chastised your dog and it was bad anyway. Are you to blame? In your scenario, you are. You, acting with perfect justice, failed to correct the dog. Because you gave the dog freedom to make it's own choices.

My expectations are not incongruent to reality. I agree with you that life is unfair. Our beliefs are all that differ. You don't believe in a just God. I do. Neither of us can say the other is wrong.
