God the all knowing
waited watched allowed
Satan to raise rebellion?
no action no intervention?
then Satan God cast out of heaven?
did God regret the waiting watching
allowing without action intervention?
did Satan regret
the rebellion
being cast out
of home heaven?
did God regret
casting Satan
a third fallen
angels out of heaven?
each angel a perfect
personal unique creation
God created formerly?
God likes waiting
watching allowing
hates sin each fall?
win life race endure prize
is an eternity in heaven
which Satan fallen angels
already had... fell... from?
bear earth hardships
life win eternity
in heaven?
life is so short?
for so many
among suffering humanity
the agony
of earth torture
each second tortured
can be an eternity
an eternity
of suffering
on earth falling
failing then
an eternity
of suffering
throughout all time?
was punishment
post creation of creation
an odorous torture hell
really necessary?
seems obsessive
vindictive
unwarranted cruelty?
punishment of rules
people not following
worship conformity
vengeance retribution?
did God never regret
waiting watching allowing
Adam and Eve to fall?
did God never regret punishment
punishing Adam and Eve all
offspring with death?
Is God
in the forgiveness
or punishment game?
Is policy no
intervention
rational sane?
