Better question: why are we assuming that God is always benevolent? Even the Bible says no one knows God's mind. Men wrote the Bible, maybe they just added in all the love and stuff because they knew God would smite them if they didn't. Maybe the suffering and evil proves he does exist. Maybe Satan is just a troublemaker or something who spoke truth to power and got his Heaven account terminated.

😛😇😈

I don't believe in God, but I'd imagine that some religious people would say that God gave us free will and we used it to fuck things up bc man is flawed and all that. so to that type of person, that would not be proof that God doesn't exist

WW2 is to me a very poignant reminder of biblical values. That man within him has a sinful nature, but one that can always be overcome. To be good is hard, even painful, but we can choose to embrace higher ideals than our baser nature. Though, as always, we can choose to embrace darker ideals. To reach heights of depravity below even beasts.
