Those are actually fairly standard complaints about God. They've been asked so often that the fact theists haven't come up with sensible answers is VERY telling. Here's my personal favourite.
1. God knows everything, by definition.
2. If God knows everything, then God knows what will happen at a given future point.
3. According to common western theology, some people go to Heaven, some go to Hell.
4. Per #2 above, God knows - and always has known - who is going to Hell.
5. The question becomes: Why does God continually allow the creation of human beings he knows are going to suffer in hell for eternity?
Until the question is resolved, the inescapable conclusion is that the abrahamic God is a psychopathic sadist on an unimaginable scale.
