   God: God created the world, God knew the sum total, he knew the absolute value, of how the world was going to be, God does minimal to nothing to stop the malice, injustices, and cruelty. God rejects justice meaning he doesn't properly and appropriately penalize those who deserve to be punished and he doesn't protect and defend those who deserve to be secured. When I look at these harsh realities, my rational thinking activates, and makes me believe that God is pure evil.
