From now until the end of time your child, whom you cherished and adored from the moment they were born, whom you would literally give your own life for, will be tortured and tormented in ways that are incomprehensible to the mind. They will never escape, and God will never change his mind, so their suffering will be as eternal as your own afterlife. You will never see your own child again, and you know that every minute of every day, they are in indescribable agony.
My question is...what would theists think of the God who not only let this happen, but specifically planned it as part of his grand scheme for humanity? How would that effect your love for God and your trust in him? I am extremely curious to know.
Your should really ask this question to those religious people who believe in paradise and hell not to all theists.
Buddhists, Hinduists and those who follow yoga like myself although we believe in God we do not believe in hell
so as far as we are concern your question doesn't make any sense at all.
