gollark: You don't. God DOES. They are omnipotent. Definitionally, they can do and can know anything.
gollark: (this is a different argument to "does said god actually exist" obviously, but the evidence there seems to be bad too)
gollark: I don't think they should be all-judging, and I don't think eternal torture is right ever.
gollark: The Islamic god is claimed to be omnipotent, I think. Thus, they know *in advance* if someone is going to go to hell or not when they're created or whatever. And then create them/allow them to be created *anyway*, knowing they're bound for eternal torture because a system they created makes them get eternally tortured. Just... why?
gollark: I consider eternal torture unethical *anyway*, but given the situation with god it's even worse.
