God is not to blame for suffering of any sort.

First of all I would like to apologize for assuming that you were living a happy life and that it was not difficult for you to feed yourself. And despite the fact that I have a learned a good lesson/reminder from all of this, I do not think your detailed life story was relevant to nor in any away effective in helping your argument. this is because the point I was trying to make though is that not everyone would insist on choosing this life and this existence. I cannot imagine myself insisting on a life where I am constantly in a state of starvation or am bed-ridden, or where my loved ones (especially children if I had any) are killed or tortured in front of my eyes. I think that your statement that we would all insist on choosing this existence is an assumption and most likely not to be true.Here is the rest of my response1) God allowed people to be killed through natural disasters because they chose unsafe places to live in? Can you please indicate to me which place in the world has not experienced a natural disaster or other calamity? And no, a lot of people do not have any choice as to where they can live. Especially children. They don't choose where they live. there are over 7 billion of us today. How can God expect us to not spread out to different regions of the world. This was probably the silliest argument you made so far in the debate. Even choosing to live in Japan for example because you got a job there, does not mean that you did something so evil that you deserve to be killed by a tsunami. This is so ridiculous, I can't even believe this was supposed to be a serious argument.2) You say that God did not cause us to be born sinful and flawed. That it was Satan's fault. Who created it Satan? How is God not the original cause? Also, I thought Satan did not have power to kill people? So who's causing people to die in horrible ways? I don't know about you, but if it were up to me, and I saw an creature like Satan trying to cause human beings to suffer and do more evil than they normally would, I would stop him immediately, because this action would not have any effect on anyone's free will. Not stopping Satan however, puts human beings at a disadvantage. Essentially God is interfering with our ability to make decisions on our own. Therefore, if God is allowing Satan to influence us, he is interfering with our free will.3) Building on this idea, that by introducing Satan into our existence, and thereby interfered with our ability to make decisions freely, let me ask you this: doesn't God interfere with human affairs in the bible all the time? How come he killed the first borns of Egypt, the entire nation of Noah, performed miracles to heal lepers, and also protect his people from evil countless times? How is that not interfering with free will? If he can stop evils in the stories in the bible without interfering with free will (I assume you think the miracles in the bible did not interfere with free will, otherwise your arguments are even more nonsensical), how come he does not stop other evils? Is this a double standard? seems to me like it is. If God can start plagues to teach evil people a lesson without interfering with free will, he can stop rapists without interfering with free will.4) So we inherited Adam's sins? Is this one of God's rules, if your dad is a sinner, you are too? And you think this is fair? That this is just? In what sense of the word is this justice? If your dad stole something from me, would it be just for me to torture you eternally for something your dad did? that would be nothing but ridiculous.5) Would you suggest to the parents in my illustration above that they should simply do nothing and allow the child to suffer for the rest of its life? That is "option 3" in that case.No that is exactly the opposite of option 3. not allowing Satan to itnerfere with human beings would in no way to influence their free will. in fact this would be the opposite of interfering with free will. this is simple logic. if no one interferes with or influences your decisions, you will make choices more freely. AND this would insure that the children suffer less, not more. Are we even speaking the same language right now? This is the question I ask myself when you make 'arguments' like this.6) God does not have to punish anyone for anything. He should not need to punish, or cause anyone to suffer. All-powerful and self-reliant means, by definition, that God should not need to rely oon other beings to satiate himself and his own sense of fairness. this is not the equivalent of trying to make a square circle. satisfying oneself without needing other sentient beings is possible, and necessary for a self-sufficent being. even human beings can find happiness regardless of how other people act. I am happy right now even though there are injustices going on around the world according to my standards. If it was up to me I would just end those injustices instead of allowing them to continue, because I am not a reality tv show contestant who needs drama in order to exist. God shouldn't have such needs either.7) There is no eternal suffering. Ok, we're talking about the god of the bible here right? Are yous serious right now?8) What was God to do, ignore such an insult, and all the problems that stem form it? Ignoring insults is actually a very noble thing to do, a worthy act for a person who does the right thing despite what others say about him. In fact, didn't god take this attribute to the next level by saying "turn the other cheek"? God shouldn't be petty enough to be swayed by an insult especially since by definition he is supposed to be the all-powerful creator of everything that exists. What kind of a drama-loving imbecile is insulted by something that he created himself. This is laughable argumentation and logic.
