>That's like saying a kid who touched an unattended stove's flame was in the wrong, despite their parents leaving it on for no other reason than to watch them get hurt. That's a setup. If that's your God, I shudder to think of your Satan.
If you tell your kid not to touch the flaming stove, and he does, he is in the winnie the pooh wrong. Now, if the kid is irreparably burnt, you might also be a negligent parent… but God offers to heal those who repent so, no harm remains if you trust Him and if you don't… well, it's your own fault.
>Then why not start over instead of making this convoluted system where has to sacrifice Himself to Himself?
Have you read Job? Your whiny, judgmental attitude to a being leagues beyond your comprehension is like a toddler screaming because he isn't allowed to eat the whole cake without feeling sick. FFS man your answer is to obliterate everyone and start over? I mean, He kinda went with that with the flood (though, obviously, for different and specific reasons- in my opinion, to get rid of the Nephelim).
>Guess that goes for babies who died before and after birth as well? That they chose, without a hint of self-awareness, to sin and be thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone on judgement day?
No one says that. The worst idea is held by those that believe they're in limbo, and that's not hell. I personally believe they have the opportunity to accept Christ, as does everyone from all time, how that functions- I have no idea, but certainly God is beyond time, and in God all things are possible.
