You do know that much of human suffering is not caused by humans? Earthquakes, viruses and all that stuff. Oh, yeah, death, too, of course. But I wouldn't be very mad at god because of that. I also wouldn't respect him very much. I'm pretty blind to the suffering of animals or sometimes even other humans (I was much more shocked when I heard about the death of my grandpa than when I heard about the earthquake in Haiti). So I can understand his perspective. But god doesn't exist anyway, so this point is pretty moot.

Also: omniscient and omnipotent? Does not compute.

Well then, it is solved! And to think, we've been wondering all these years!

I hope your open-mindedness and skepticism (forgive me if I'm wrong, but I believe science is one of the biggest champions of this quality), translates well into your other pursuits for knowledge.


So you can’t think there is high probability god doesn’t exist and still be open-minded and a skeptic? Perfect 50:50 agnostics as the only bearers of skepticism and open-mindedness? :)
