Did we ask him to fix it? Did we care about him in any way? Individuals may did but he wants to save more than just a 0.1%. And what is temporary death against eternal life in a “fixed” world? The suffering before is the much worse part. But even this can be quite a cure to many of us. We, seen statistically, don’t become “good” from being rich and having a carefree life. And much less we ask for God to fix the world for the others that are suffering.
He is waiting for us to change our minds, admit that we were wrong, that we weren’t able to fix it ourselves. Pretty selfish, you could think. Seeking for glory, letting people suffer until the come crawling back to you.
But then again, we brought this on us ourselves. We decided we were better off on our own, not made to serve God in a perfect world with no suffering. And also, tho whom would all the glory in the world belong if not to its creator? How could an almighty God be selfish only because he decided the purpose if his creation?
It’s a cruel and demented mindset to justify children dying by claiming they deserve it, that they “brought it on themselves.”
I’m not going to live for a being that causes so much suffering just because he wants some sort of glory. We’d put those people in prison if they were us, because it doesn’t fit with our societal morals.
And this is what I was trying to tell you and so many people don’t get: there is a distinction between God and human. People judge God as if he was human (or as if he was not God and only human more specifically) and as if he had not the right to give and take back what he gave.
And once more, HE didn’t cause the suffering. If we did what we have been made for there wouldn’t be any suffering, we would be infinitely happy. It was our choice all along, things like climate change only make it much more clear what has been true the whole time.
I get that not everybody wants to believe that. But I don’t believe in a world with no purpose and no sense. A random occurence with no meaning. A universe which ends in singularity just to do the same thing over and over again.
Edit: Forgot the most important part on why pain and suffering is still a thing: We somehow need to make an informed decision on what we choose for eternity. Going our own ways and where it leads and going God’s way. Gladly, it doesn’t have to stay this way for very long, we will make the whole thing crash in just a few decades.
