You are being silly. God has infinite power. He could stop the devil in his tracks with his pinky finger (does God have a pinky finger, I don't know...) However his will is all this should happen so we can get it into our thick skull that no human government is going to save us. For the past 2000 years we have been putting our faith in our governments, instead of praying and voting for the Kingdom of God. After Judgement Day, there can be no one who still thinks we would be better off without God like Adam and Eve did. He allows bad things to happen, he has released the devil upon the earth to wreak havoc, but we also, we humans, in 100 years have devastated our own planet. This is all prophesized by Jesus, who spoke of the last days. God is certainly not waiting for humans to give him 'the power he needs'.

think of the random suspension of gravity while a new child fell off a cliff. Or the suspension of the impenetrability of remember while an elderly guy or woman is hit by skill of a vehicle. Or the non-combustion of cotton fabric (e.g. clothing) or gas while uncovered to fireside. there's a sturdy hazard that one in each and every of those worldwide isn't even visualizable nor conceivable. yet, you may say, it fairly isn't any longer the suspension of physics that we are asking of God; basically that he could shop the youngster faraway from the cliff. yet this objection is not greater advantageous, for no longer basically does it place an fairly arbitrary constraint upon our freedom, even nevertheless it additionally creates an fabulous worldwide. The memories of heroism, altruism, bravery, the Aristocracy, compassion, and character progression that happen at exceedingly much each and every such experience or such misfortune are properly-user-friendly. evaluate a hypothetical worldwide wherein maximum persons, began to go through continuously at delivery, yet wherein some people now and back had intermittent episodes of 'alleviation from suffering'. the undertaking in THAT worldwide may be the thank you to describe 'pointless goodness' or why ALL toddlers did no longer fall off cliffs, etc. In different words, the statistically user-friendly will become the backside from which to 'define' the aberrant. What this implies for us is that the very life of this as a 'problem' means that it rather is 'minor' relative to 'user-friendly adventure.' yet what this could desire to enhance is the question of the vast volume of 'goodness' in human adventure--generally unrecognized. The goodness of kinfolk, acquaintances, attractiveness, artwork, love, sleep, sexuality, track, nutrition, excitement, therapeutic, progression, perception, community, etc. is everywhere in our lives. We generally take such issues with no attention (generally till we are confronted with 'organic evil'!), yet they sort nearly all of our adventure. Granted, we locate issues to whinge approximately--at somewhat some ranges of justification--yet we basically 'be conscious' the problems against the backdrop of excellent.

GOD DOESN'T NEED US!!!!! GOD CHOOSE TO ALLOW US TO BE A PART OF IT!
I know you're just trying to tell people about God and all, but you really need to get your facts straight before you start publicizing them! What you just said is so untrue!
God allows bad things to happen so that He can show us His grace through them! God can take anything bad that Satan puts in our lives and use it for good to glorify Him!
..... Wow.... Just.... Please don't post anymore... You're going to confuse believers and give non-believers more false information to try to distort...

Wow - now that's a strong message!
In order to view what we call "good" we also have to label something "bad." Otherwise we'd have nothing wouldn't we?
What is your bad may be someone else's good - you never know!
