Of course not. You can't force love. But through fear, you can force people into going through the motions of love, until it becomes second nature.
As an omniscient being, you would know better. In your world, we would "only desire for happiness in ourselves and others" and we would be "perfectly happy." Forgive me for confusing that with love.
What do you mean, "run the other way"? Which way? If you fear God, it stands to reason that you believe in God.
I don't know about you, but when I'm afraid of something, I tend to not run toward it.
And if you believe in God, then you also believe there is no running away. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
Some believe hell is the absence of God, but the Bible disagrees with them.
Why would you think I was saying God should fix what I broke? If God had fixed things, I wouldn't be breaking things in the first place. What needs fixing isn't the things that people break, it's the people themselves. And I am repeating myself at this point.
Well, you could have stopped at the question. You were talking about fixing things. It's "what people do." But if you, being the controlling god you are, are to be chastised for not "doing your job" when you don't fix things, then apparently your job is to fix things that you - or anyone - breaks. I inferred that to mean God should fix what we break because its his fault for giving us the ability to do so. I'm sorry if I misunderstood.
