IGIT, Why don't you answer Brian and explain why God said,
"Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved,
but Esau have I hated."
I must admit that if God loves all, since he made us all, it is fair to assume he did it in love. He raised the King of Egypt to further his kingdom and I am sure, like he says, he did it with much thought and perhaps trepidation to raise those like that who have brought death and misery to many millions in the world.
Some things are just too heavy for most of us and we must assume that God, in his perfect knowledge, did it for a reason that we cannot understand completely. However, he did state that he hated Esau and I would appreciate it, since you profess to know exactly what God thinks, to explain that passage rather than to dismiss Brian as untruthful.
