    I don’t want to start an argument here, but the general line of reasoning people use is that God can’t be both all good and all powerful, because then he would’ve stopped all those atrocities from happening.

      I’m only just getting into it all after completely losing faith with humanity. As far as I can tell god is as fed up of men as I was. He’s helped and provided everything to stop these things. Unfortunately we are plagued by free will and an incredible lack of discipline.

          God gave us the first the devil brought the second. Pretty sure god questions himself for that one all the time though; so don’t worry you’re not the only one.

      Well, you could strip all the interesting stuff about human intelligence out of humanity, like a Stepford Wives situation, make everyone perfect and ideal for some vision…

      Or you can give humans agency and free will, let them have their own thoughts, and it leads to both atrocities, innovation, and other amazing things.

      Neither of these scenarios actually proves there is no all good, all seeing, all powerful entity that created the universe, or watches over us, or even created evolution or just snapped us into existence. If it gave us free will, we and we alone are responsible for the atrocities we commit
