Every plan typically has an end goal in mind.
Here are the plans to build my house.
Here are the plans to rob the bank to pay for the house.
Here is my plan to escape from the authorities should everything not go according to plan.
If you believe that a god exists and that everything that happens in the world, happens according to god's plan, then what is the end goal ?
Humans have been around on earth for a good 200,000 years, give or take a few thousand. Presumably all those people would be in hell. That was the plan for some 200,000 years.
Perhaps hell got too crowded or maybe God got tired of all those endless screams that he could surely hear all of the time for 200,000 years. That's a lot of screaming and torment for seemingly no reason.
Then came the bible as put together by Marcion.
Some would say the early Christians put together a bible as a reaction to what Marcion had done. They didn't want people reading what Marcion had cobbled together in his canon so they created their own.
They decided which books would be in their bible and which ones would be excluded. They decided.
So maybe now some people would finally get into heaven, except all those other people all over the world who had other religious beliefs.
Year after year. Century after century you still had millions going to hell and this was perfectly ok with God. All part of the plan.
Lots of wars, millions killed and still most going to hell.
Lots of babies who died from disease also in hell.
But hey, still all part of the plan.
If the goal was to have people in heaven, a god could just create that from the start right ?
But that's not the plan. That's not the goal.
