That would mean I can't go to the place of worship, I may not be able to read the religious text and I have free will taken away from me. The 'lesser of two evils' is to prevent me from being kidnapped. The deity demonstrates its existence, I have my free will preserved and a person(s) is prevented from committing a sin. It's a win for everyone involved.
I've got a better story, this guy didn't like Jews, but god didn't step in and effect his free will or anyone else involved in this. The guy got elected Chancellor of Germany, again god wouldn't step in and affect anyone's free will.
So he sends millions of Jews to the gas chambers, again god couldn't have convinced him to maybe deport them?
Millions of Jews, and many others, die while begging and pleading for this god to save them. God doesn't answer a single prayer and millions die, good job god, you're a dick!
