    … a god caused the eternal suffering of all life on earth because one man, whom that god designed and created with perfect knowledge knowing exactly what he would do, disobeyed him.

    Not only that, the disobeying was eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. Prior to that, Adam and Eve did not comprehend ‘good’ and ‘evil.’ They could not understand that what they were doing was “wrong.”

    Yahweh created humans in order to torture them.

      Yahweh created humans in order to torture them.

      Naw, he wanted to larp as the hero. Seriously. The free will argument is that he needed them to sin blah blah blah so that he could then save us all.

      It’s like that kid that set out to be a the good-side character in fable, gets bored and goes murders a bunch of villagers and pays off the temple to stay happy.
