In what way does this refute my case exactly?

You have created a one-dimensional image in your mind of what God should be if he's loving. You think that if he is a loving God he will never get angry, he will not be concerned with justice or punishment, and that he would not let us get ourselves into into any trouble. If he doesn't fit your image of what a loving God is, then you've decided that either he doesn't exist or doesn't care.
