I agree with Neimenovic. It's just not possible for free moral agents to exist in a world ruled by an omnipotent, omniscient god. Not even if he were all-loving.
If he were just there to help, I'd probably come to depend on his help and not learn to be an independent person.
To wish for god to exist means wishing for reality itself to be so different I'd have no idea exactly what I'd be wishing for.

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
