Satan. Justice delayed is justice denied. Why does God wait?

Satan. Justice delayed is justice denied. Why does God wait?
God is to be our standard of justice and we are to emulate his ways.
He has condemned Satan to hell yet gave him dominion on earth instead of imposing his sentence. IOW. A reward.
No judge in their right mind would do so in our justice system.
Is God less responsible than our judges?
Is God denying justice by not imposing his sentence?
Why is God not imposing his sentence and instead, is rewarding Satan?

God, Satan, Hell...all just fairy tales.
If the God of the Bible actually existed in real life we would ALL be screwed..not just the non-christians. Yahweh is a man of war, and the way he handles satan is unforgivable. Yahweh also claims to love the children, yet he doesnt do a damn thing to protect innocent children from being raped and murdered.

In response to this comment, and only this comment, our perception of justice is man-made, and therefore your statement could be easily refuted by saying that God's justice is divine and cannot be compared to man's justice which is (obviously) not divine. I would imagine a rational theist would oppose your comment in this way. Just something to chew on and think about.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Jeremiah, my comment wasn't reflecting my own opinion on the subject, just a possible refutation. Please don't lump me in the same category as those who hold the stance which I stated. "Im glad that perhaps and G-C arent working in the justice system right now".
