Its clearly because clearly god has realized the best thing ever is isekai so he made earth and made us all isekai MCs. The terrible things that happen just give sus unique back stories when we get isekai'd so we all get to be unique MCs. /s

Who is sus and why do you give him unique back stories?

It's just that the model of divinity as an lawful authority is complete bullshit, and has nothing to do with spirituality

Their logic would be

C

If something bad happens to someone it’s because they deserved it

“But they were a good person”

They were going to do something terrible

Think about the following:

In the medieval ages, people were popping out 5-15 children on average. Child mortality was extremely high, with roughly 80% of children dying before they were 5 y/o.

Now, what should god do (if they existed)? Let the children life and cause overpopulation, which leads to famine and disaster, or kill a lot of children? There's literally no solution.

That was until contraceptives were found. And interestingly, contraceptives exist at roughly the same time that antibiotics exist, thus preventing both high child-mortality and overpopulation.

I think the Pope and Cardinals would all choose B and then proceed to schpiel about how this life is a trial and he takes each of us at precisely the time of his choosing for good reasons inconceivable to mere mortals bla bla bla

they'd pull out Job. And basicaly say "you're too stupid to understand. to limited. How dare you question god? that's not your job, now get on your hands and knees and clean my shoes with your tongue. Oh and give me your money because I need it more than you and god says you have to. You didn't earn it anyway, it all came from god, too."

Pretty sure every pope is a multimillionaire (or at least lives exactly like one) without having to answer this question 🫤

So for the sake of a thought experiment:

in this thought experiment B or C or both is the case:

what is the best course of action?

comply with regulations and hope to get on the good side or suffer the consequences of the alternative

worship doesn't require benevolence. fear keeps people in line just as well.

pretty sure thats the case for many religious people. telling you the god isn't "good" would upset the rules, so why would they
