GROUND ZERO, you said: "The issue of free will doesn't answer the question of why so many innocent people have been murdered and tortured throughout history... what have they done to deserve any of it?" If we truly have "free will" and if the true believers stand by "free will" as one of God's most important rules, then we should be able to exercise our free will in order to, not only question God's decisions, but to criticize God. But, if I criticize God, or the conception of God, many want my "free will" taken from me. How dare I criticize God! It was OK for slow torture and murder of 1.5 million Jewish children by inhuman human beasts, or the slow torture and murder of 1.5 million Armenians by Turkish Muslims, because both perpetrator and victim exercised free will, but it is not OK for you or I to question God's immoral decisions. Anyone, god or human, who is capable of rescuing the helpless from torture and death, without any threat to themselves, and sits by and decides to watch the torture, is immoral and sinful and does not deserve to be praised or honored.
