He doesn't put harm in our way? So, natural disasters are regrettable but he can do nothing about them? He has no ability to stop or prevent blameless accidents? Babies who starve to death or die from abuse deserve it because they made poor choices with their free will?
Quote:God does not do things out if his benefit, but of ours, let's look at this, what country do you live in? Do you live in one of the free countries like America, Britain, or do you live countries like Iran or North Korea, where you are forced to live your life the way the leader wants. Obviously the free county because you're on this site, but which one would you rather? God's main choices go towards our happiness, he looks out for us not himself
If God's primary desire was to see us happy, then the only rules he would have would be to prevent direct harm or threat. But instead of rules prohibiting rape, child molestation and slavery, he gave us rules against eating pork, having sex with consenting adults of the same gender, and picking up sticks on a certain day of the week.
So, kindly stuff it with that bullshit. It's wrong and we all know it.
