As a leftist athiest I just don't see how it would be possible to reconcile the reality of the horrific suffering humanity goes through due to our capitalist hellworld with the belief in an all powerful, all loving creator god as described in abrahamic religions.

Not here to be an obnoxious relijin bad dawkincuck debate bro, I genuinely want to learn something.

    Yeah, I get where you're coming from. Most of the time I feel like Jacob, like if I met God I'd want to beat the shit out of him and MMA for a full evening until it gets to the point that he has to break my hip or something to end it (my fav bit of Genesis, lol), I'd want to know why it had to be this. I'd be pissed if we met face to face. It's to the point that I dont think atheists have it right, theres just too much suffering and some of it so petty and targeted that it doesnt seem like random chance would be sufficient, if anything the Gnostics had it right - theres an evil creator demiurge that runs this shit.
