If he exists he is rubbish at his job, think a career move is in order.

Originally posted by @badradgerYes, His ways are not ours. Think about the attributes of God, He is the Alpha and Omega, He is everywhere, He created everything, and holds all together by the power of His Word! He knows everything so that at no time does any of the smallest of particles escapes Him, neither does how anything small or great relates to the rest of the universe. Which means everything all at once has God’s total attention!

So I would say His views are different than ours.

Man's greatest complaint about god is that he doesn't do things.
He is completely conspicuous by his complete absence.
our bodies, maintains the universe we live in and so on. So again, He doesn't behave
like we would have Him. He isn't absent, instead He allows us to live life with the
consequences of our actions good and bad. He is very merciful too otherwise we would
all be zapped out of this life. Even your complaint is just saying God isn’t doing things the
way you’d like them to be done.

This life is full of good and bad things occurring, for all you know God has been holding
back a lot of bad things. Personally, I think it is getting worse because God is allowing
us to do a lot things we shouldn't do to each other, so He is no longer holding us back
from revealing what we really are with out Him.
