would you punish their non-belief? If your children stopped believing you were their parent - would you make them suffer?

Silly question. I cannot even begin to answer your nonsensical question.

Good question, do not some parents make their children already suffer, and do not the children still love the parents even though they cruel.

God doesn't make anyone suffer. If you're referring to a fiery Hell, the Bible doesn't actually teach that. It was created to scare people into behaving by apostate Christendom. God will, however get rid of those who refuse to listen to him or acknowledge he exists. If you had a child who was being told by their siblings that you existed, but then laughed at them and caused them problems, eventually you would kick them out of the house. You wouldn't hold their hand on a burning stove (hell illustration...) but you would remove their bad influence so the children that do listen and believe in you can live happy lives.

It takes 2 to tango, know what I mean?
How shallow is that love if one resorts to manipulations and threat to complete it?
And if it still does not work, at lease proper revenge has been rendered? That kind of love is sick, period!
Get over it an move on...

The consequences of sin are incalculable. Even the innocent suffer from it.

A lot of people don't believe I exist and it makes me sad. If I was god, I'd smite them. But that's because there's a lot more evidence that I exist...the same is not true for god.

No and No.
We have outgrown the concept of God described in Genesis. Most of us are more civilized than He.

No, I would not make them suffer. I would explain how and why I am their parent. I love them, unconditionally!!!

We are all creations of God, but not all of us are his children. Jesus made it clear that if we didnt listen to God, Satan was actually our father!
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! -John 8:44
We are all creations of God, we are not all his children!
