Wouldn't it be better to not create people so nobody would have to burn and suffer?

He didn't. Certain religions say that's the case, but then those same certain religions give 1000 other reasons why you'll burn in hell, most of which are based upon their own narrow-minded interpretation of God, the bible, and right and wrong.

Funny thing is, the Bible doesn't teach anything about a literal fiery hell that sinners are condemned to suffer an eternity roasting in. That idea crept in from Babylonian mythology along with its twin (the concept of the immortal soul, which is also unscriptural).
God created us to live 4ever on earth. Satan and Adam and Eve had other plans, but God implemented certain measures to ensure that his original purpose would still be eventually carried out. Those who continue to willingly practice evil will be wiped out of existence, not kept alive and tormented. Those who do God's Will will live 4ever on earth.

He didn't create them to die in the first place. He created Adam and Eve to live forever on a peaceful, paradise earth. It wasn't until Satan decided that he would be greedy and mean and caused Eve to mess up and sin that death came into the picture. Remember in the Bible where Eve was talking to the serpent and he asked her, "Is it really so that if you eat from the tree you will die?" And Satan called God a liar, when it was really him that was the liar. If you could live on earth in a paradise forever, would you want to? That's what God has planned for the future. The Bible states that the meek shall inherit the earth. (Psalms 37:10,11) And the verse in Revelations shows what conditions will be like on the earth - Rev. 21:3,4.

because God has promised that he will fill the hell from people and jinnies. and the words of God can't be changed after when it's subbmited.
[13] And if We had willed, surely We would have given every person his guidance, but the Word from Me took effect (about evildoers), that I will fill Hell with jinn and mankind together.
Quran 32:13
the words of God can't be changed and God is fair with his servents. when God ask the Hell are you full yet, and the Hell replay back and says "is there is more?"
[29] The Sentence that comes from Me cannot be changed, and I am not unjust (to the least) to the slaves."
[30] On the Day when We will say to Hell: "Are you filled?" It will say: "Are there any more (to come)?"
Quran 50:29-30

Well you see god is all knowing, knows the future before it even happens so knows the fate of all man i.e hell, now just because god created earth and all things in it doesn't mean we should blame him lets pretend that all bad things have nothing to do with him, or he didn't intend them, thats what a few of the people on R&S seam to say anyway. If it doesn't sound good ignore it.

John Piper puts it this way
The best-of-all-possible worlds, means that God governs the course of history so that, in the long run, His glory will be more fully displayed and His people more fully satisfied than would have been the case in any other world. If we look only at the way things are now in the present era of this fallen world, this is not the best-of-all-possible worlds. But if we look at the whole course of history, from creation to redemption to eternity and beyond, and see the entirety of God's plan, it is the best-of-all-possible plans and leads to the best-of-all-possible eternities. And therefore this universe (and the events that happen in it from creation into eternity, taken as a whole) is the best-of-all-possible-worlds.

The road to Heaven is narrow and be it traveled by few.
Just make sure you are one of those that make that trip. EVERYONE has the same opportunity to go, but you will always have naysayers. I'm sure you know what I mean.
NOW, during the millennium the Earth will be covered only by those who did follow Christ in these days. So the suggestion you are making is going to happen, it's just at a later time.
It's all spelled out in a great book called The Holy Bible. A good read!

The answer that "I speak truth" gave is correct. God is love and would never think of torturing anyone. That would go against his sense of justice and mercy. We are all considered God's children. If a mother or father today were to burn a child in fire day after day for doing something wrong, how would you feel about them? Would you respect them? They would be called child abusers, yet people can love and worship a God who they claim does this horrible torture to their loved ones.
How unreasonable is that? Satan the Devil is responsible for all human suffering. He began by tricking our first parents into rebelling against God and he has never stopped his evil methods of deception.
Our loving Creator will soon put an end to all wickedness, including the one who started it all---his enemy and ours, Satan the Devil and his demons.

If you knew you were going to have 10 kids, and 5 of them would rebel against you of their own freewill and even try to murder the other 5. And the other 5 would be your true children that loved you. You would still have the kids out of the love for the 5 that loved you and that is how God feels about creation.

"Dwayne Wayne", "Lover of Bible truth", "Charlie", "Fuzzy", "Fireball226", and "I Speak Truth" all understand the correct Biblical interpretation of what the Bible actually says about burning in Hell.! It is false; we are NOT going to burn in HELL. Amazing how many poor people believe we will! What kind of loving God is that?
If I may add to it, "Hell" simply means the "grave". We will all go the grave when we die. We will all be resurrected at a point later. We will be given an opportunity to obey God. We will have a choice whether to obey or not, If we choose to obey, we will live for eternity with God. If we choose NOT to obey, we will be sent to the Lake of Fire, where we will be consumed by fire, burnt up completely, as if we never existed. We will NOT be torrured for all eternity. That's a lie, promoted by those who preach a hellfire and brimstone, false teaching!!! God is love, and wants all of us to choose HIM!!! We must do it by free will. For those who don't now believe this, our merciful, loving God will give them an opportunity to choose God's way in the future, or to be put to death forever!
That's it! The simple Biblical truth. Look it up yourself in the Bible! Or you can email me thru Yahoo Q & A, and I'll give you scriptural proof...
1 John, 4:18 "There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love."
We are suppposed to have love for God, so why would we fear this lie about Hell? God deosn't want us to, He wants us to have that perfect love!!!
God Bless you!
