If God really hated us, why isn't the air made of acid and shards of glass? Why don't 5-headed cobras bite our legs every waking hour? Who are you to judge God?

I believe that he is because life would be unbearable if I thought that everything I did was doomed to failure because of a giant puppeteer. God gave us free will. That means that the other people around us have free will as well. Because of this, he can't interfere with us directly because that is taking away our free will. He won't do that. So, if someone else decides to set something bad in motion, God is by his nature limited in what he will do to stop it. If I saw God as angry and vengeful, what would even be the point of trying to be good? I would just try to have all the fun here as possible because there would be no way that I would survive on to anything Good after death. I don't believe that he is angry and vengeful, I believe that he loves us enough to set us free.

What is your definition of fair, just, good, and loving? God is all of those things and more, but they are according to His standards, not the ones we try to choose for Him. When you say He doesn't "act" that way, what do you mean?

It is the mind of the human that sparks thoughts of evil. GOD is beyond the form. Without form or reason, mind cannot function.
All the LOVE, JOY, and PEACE comes from GOD, which is beyond the comprehension of mind!
