If there was a God and it was an actual conscious entity, how could any human ever comprehend the motivations or intentions of such an entity. It can start again from scratch in 6 days - it's not an ecologically constrained being.

It might be like a fighting dog trainer - the trainer might like it, feed it , take it for walks, abuse and traumatise it and so on, or it might not - just like God might. But after it loses it's last fight, they can just get a new one.

God might care, but has no reason to. He could just as well be fucking around for a laugh. Or doing some scientific experiment, or fish tank, or it's just an art project to show off to break the ice at parties. No human could ever know.

So it's just not worth wasting time thinking about - unless you're charismatic enough to disempower the charlatans and demagogues who do claim to know the will of god. If that is the case, good luck to you.
