He's losing the souls of all the Musilms, Hindus, Buddhists, etc to Satan all the time...as well as the bad bad terrorists. Does that matter?

What makes you think you have the right God? A Muslim would ask the same question about Christians, and Buddhists and Hindus wouldn't find it applicable.

Are you saying that God doesn't already know the hearts of the men that are involved in this? We have a choice, we are given the opportunity to choose whether we believe in Jesus or not. If they have already made their choice, they are hellbound anyways. God does not delight in the death of the wicked, but in the death of the righteous. Remember that. THink about what it means. He does not delight in people going to hell. But He rejoices when His children come to be with Him in heaven.

"For God so LOVED the world"....and that included terrorists, muslims, hindus buddhists. Salvation is a gift of God and I am sure it hurts him to see people reject him by the rejection of his gift.

I think heaven weeps for every one that chose hell and hate over love and grace and redemption, so yes, I believe God weeps over His children. However we are all given free will just like our own fathers give us freewill and he will not interfere in your chosen path if that is the path one wants to take. As for the poor deluded terrorists who think they are going to get 72 virgins in heaven for killing innocent non-Muslims, I think Satan is laughing over that trick he created to foster hate for humanity in the name of "God" when it is actually in his own name.
As for good pagans whether they go to heaven or not is upto God's free grace. Everyone will have the knowledge of Jesus Christ and the redemption he offers at the time of death.

It does bother God that he is losing the souls of terrorists and anyone else that doesn't want to accept him. God doesn't want anyone to go to hell but because of freewill, humanity can choose who they want to worship. I know that God wants everyone to go to heaven but he won't force anyone to accept his love. If people choose other things than God, than its not God's fault that people end up in Hell. That is not what God wants but that is a choice that we all get to make all on our own.

God is our Father and it grieves him to lose any of his children. However, those of the faiths you mentioned are not lost unless they sin against the knowledge of right and wrong they have. Thou shall not kill is universal to all religions. Yes even among the Muslims.

Do you think that God is in heaven drinking Malox and eating antacids because people are doing wrong. We have free will choice, and evil men do what evil men do. God does not need us, we need God. Everyone has their own choice to make in life.
God does not cause evil, men causes evil.

What about the souls of those that are so prideful they arrogantly believe THEY know the how God judges when they were told not to judge others?

Yes, he is very sad. He wants all His children to come home. Wouldn't you? I would be very sad if my children decided I did not exist and choose a different parent. Especially one so hateful and distructive. It would break my heart.
