    Did we ask him to fix it? Did we care about him in any way? Individuals may did but he wants to save more than just a 0.1%. And what is temporary death against eternal life in a “fixed” world? The suffering before is the much worse part. But even this can be quite a cure to many of us. We, seen statistically, don’t become “good” from being rich and having a carefree life. And much less we ask for God to fix the world for the others that are suffering.

    He is waiting for us to change our minds, admit that we were wrong, that we weren’t able to fix it ourselves. Pretty selfish, you could think. Seeking for glory, letting people suffer until the come crawling back to you.

    But then again, we brought this on us ourselves. We decided we were better off on our own, not made to serve God in a perfect world with no suffering. And also, tho whom would all the glory in the world belong if not to its creator? How could an almighty God be selfish only because he decided the purpose if his creation?
