It’s the simplest of logic. If I claim to have magic flying powers. Then I jump off a building and fall to my death. You’d say I was lying.
Likewise if people tell me that the god Ive been following is all knowing, all powerful, and compassionate. That all I have to do is be good and pray and he will watch over me.
So I do the things and he doesn’t hold up his end of the bargain. Then it’s a sham. It’s a lie. It’s a con. It’s bull shit.
Organizations are what they do. The church makes big claims. But follows through with none of the supernatural stuff, and very little of the material stuff like donations.
Free will on which end mine or “god’s” end? If you’re saying that “god” has free will to decide whether they help children or not after claiming to be compassionate. Then I have no use for a “god” like that.
If you’re saying that as a child I had free will in the circumstances I listed. Then just like your “god” you are an abhorrent piece of trash and I have no use for you either.
Once again I just want to say that I am not a satanist. I do not speak for anyone but myself. The people here are more than capable of speaking for themselves.
But, what you said still doesn’t touch the issue that we were talking about. Which is, “Why would an all powerful all seeing “god” let his creations suffer?” If he is all powerful then he can keep suffering from happening. If he is all knowing then he does know the suffering is happening. So, if real, he chooses to let that suffering happen. It’s that simple.
If you’re saying that “god” doesn’t intervene because humans have free will. That means that “god” deserves no credit for anything other than creation. In that case worshipping him is the same as worshipping a mom and dad that abandoned you at birth. Which is completely insane.
Also, I’d just like to point out that “god” gave zero shits about “free will” when it came to sodom and Gomorrah. “God gave zero shits about free will when it came to Lot.
Now look, I’m done. You have been backed into a corner where there is no satisfactory answer. There is no way to explain the problem in a way that is reasonable. Also, I have better things to do than argue the merits of an imaginary friend. It’s been fun, happy holidays.

Do you know what free will is?

No, I’m saying people are free to sin, nothing will stop them in this life, but hell would almost certainly not be like hazbin hotel

Because intervention would mean he doesn’t allow free will
