If God loves us so much, why would he let us suffer? Why would he let todays world stand? He allows people to make their own choices. Some become corrupted and cause others suffering, they will be justly dealt with after this life.

You think, that if god exists, then he/she/it is a being high in the skies, or at the center of the universe, whatever, and he sees down to us, and does everything as he pleases. This doesn't make sence.
If god exists, it is everywhere. It is in everyone. The Bible sais that god created Adam to be like him. This doesn"t mean that god looks like a human. This means that every human has the spark of god, so everyone is a Creator (sidenote: as you see, this is a metaphor... like almost everything in the bible). If god exists, then he is the universe, he is nature, he is in our subconcious. If god exists, it isn't human! So this whole argument (where you guys try to explain god with human concepts) loses it's sence.
