But no, suffering continues needlessly. He can stop it but he won't, so even if I thought he was real, I would not worship him because he's a sick bastard. Whatever plan he has, he can do it without all this suffering.
He never "does" anything that can't happen by itself.
Do you believe that there is no good reason for anything to happen that causes suffering? Sounds like you're the one looking for a fantasyland.
