God's cruelty: A signature of his

[GENETIKXL]

If we view life through the lens of God's intention, then the frustration, isolation, and perceived injustice some people endure seem like deliberate acts of cruelty.​

Why would a supposedly benevolent being create a world where so many live in loneliness and struggle with things outside their control (like appearance or circumstances) that limit their ability to connect?

If God made people intentionally flawed, if he imposed this random system of "gifts" where some get beauty, wealth, or charm, and others get pain, insecurity, and invisibility, it could feel like an injustice. Like he’s playing a game where the rules are rigged against certain people, simply because he can.

Why give someone the instinct to desire connection but withhold the qualities that make it attainable? It’s like setting someone up for failure, stacking obstacles in their path and watching them stumble without offering help or explanation.

The harder truth might be that suffering is either meaningless or simply part of a cold, cosmic design that doesn’t prioritize fairness. If there’s cruelty in that, it’s in knowing that God could alleviate it, and simply doesn’t.

Cruelty and indifference of God are one of the main reasons why I don't believe in a loving God (or God in general). If he actually exists or not, doesn't matter. He's not worthy of being worshiped or loved.

Believe what you want fellow inkwell however Maybe all of this shit is random and there is no grand design. Maybe everything is just a random twist of fate and nothing makes sense.

We struggle to learn. We struggle to prove to God that we are ready to enter his kingdom and conjoin with him.

God didn't make people this way. It is the adversary who has turned us against God. He who tricked us is at fault for our suffering. This is believed unanimously by all faiths.

Saint Paul had the same struggles. His aloneness caused him much grievance but god was with him at all times. Going through major form of suffering is common in the faiths. Jesus. Who is God in Christianity. Suffered the most.

Gnostic texts are originating from women. I wouldn't follow the teachings of a woman.

Either god is an asshole or he isn’t all powerful, assuming he exists in the first place kek

Why do you think it's the creator who has caused your suffering? Why can't it be the adversary. Who rules this plane of existence.

Is it difficult to comprehend that god, something that has a completely different overview of the universe, does not act like a human would? you can also think of something similar to how a father educates his child by whatever means necessary. If he just gives his kid everything they ever wanted, everytime, the kid would not grow mentally. Struggle builds character.
