I've said this before.
If there was only one true God, why would he not spread his word to every corner of the Earth so that despite language and culture, his word would be infallible to whoever read it, whenever they did. He is omnipotent, remember, a factor that Christians on this forum seem to forget again and again. Free will? Hogwash. Ifgiving up my free will could save someone's life, I'd throw it away. There are more important things than free will. God would know this. He is omniscient, another factor Christians don't grasp. He would know that humans would rather have love instead of free will, and when you see how much pain and suffering there is in this world, despite of faith in God, he either doesn't care, or doesn't exist.
I choose the latter. No all-knowing, all-powerful, all-loving being could let the world be as it is today, even for the sake of free will, which is of little value when put to the test.
