I know, I know it’s all supposed to be faith but seriously guys listening to all these convoluted explanations makes one wonder about Gods sanity let alone his very existence

God allows evil to be done in his name.  He allows innocent children to be grievously harmed in his name.  He allows this world to go from war to war, often in His name, killing noncombatant.  And we are then told He does this in love. People are just supposed to accept all of this on some vague promise of a better eternity yet the next generation comes along and it’s wash, rinse, and repeat.

Seems to me that God and his followers do more harm than good in this world

If God does indeed exist, I am very certain the versions of God derived by humans found in the Bibles, Old Testament, and the Quran for examples are way off. 
If there is one thing we know from history through today in 2023, those in power can never fully be trusted with being fully honest and truthful. And those versions of God that have snowballed down through history started with those in power.
