What evidence do you have that a supreme creator must be all "good"? Certainly his creations may give one pause.

That's why I said "Lets suppose"

True... but that doesn't change my question. You're switching topics.

God is all good but he doesn't let sin go unpunnished

Ah, you must also have taken this course!

PSYCH 306 -- The Psychology of Supreme Beings
Credit: 4 hours
Terms: Fall/Spring
Description: In this course, students will learn the basics of supreme being psychology, to include their needs, wants, moral code, and anger responses. Emphasis will be on omnipotent, omniscient universe-creating gods, but other heavenly spirits will also be discussed. Course includes a lab in which students will conduct a video interview of a real supreme being and create a personality profile.

That's why catholics invented purgatory: it's hell (in the form of a really long line) but without all the demons.

kind of a damnation lite. all the punishment, half the guilt.

If God does not exist, then what is the difference between what we think of what we call hell and life in prison (or capital punishment even more so)? for say rape, kidnapping or murder. Isn't the punishment a bit extreme then?

Mostly the part about the fire and brimstone. But prison isn't really for punishment, it's for the protection of the peaceful and honest folks.
