He us totally loving .

People that don't like him just get bent out of shape about him liking people that like him more than the people who don't like him.

I would consider God a weirdo and unloving if he loved his enemies more. That would be Trump level antics.

There are many problems with this. Firstly, devoutly religious people suffer very badly in this world as well. Secondly, God has determined from the outset of the universe who is going to believe in him, and who is going to believe which branch of that theology.

If he had presented himself to all of us, and created a universe in which none need suffer even so much as a pinprick, then that would be a loving God.

It's true that everything that happens to wicked people could happen to righteous people. However there are two flaws to your premiseThat has nothing to do with love and you are mandating rules that are not in evidence.

1. This has nothing to do with God loving the righteous.
2. It requires mandates that are not in evidence nor should be expected. It's all well and good that ones think thy know what God should do for them, it's an entirely different matter to actually think it's something he should adhere to.

It's also annoying that people seem to think that just because there is suffering, that means everyone is suffering and miserable.

Most everyone's doing pretty OK
