Nay. God can't simply come down and prove His existence. To do that means He is basically forcing your knee to bow to Him; that is what dictators do. Instead of forcing you to believe in Him, He gives you the simple choice of the two. The Bible says do not put God to the test: He created you, gave you breath and life. He doesn't need to prove anything to you after that. The least he has earned is our trust in Him.
Nay, God doesn't send anyone to Hell. Our sin brings us to Hell, because although God is a loving God, he is also a perfect God who cannot let anything sinful into a perfect place such as Heaven. If we were sinless beings, which we once where, we would be able to enter Heaven no problem. Because God specifically commands us not to sin, he has to punish any sin. We all sin, therefore, we are all condemned to Hell. God doesn't keep a score board: it doesn't matter how many good deeds we do, we have done a thousand more evil ones. Every day we lie, kill (hating someone counts as murdering them), lust, create false idols, not content with what we have... all those things are sins. That is why Jesus is important in Christianity: our sin, through Jesus' death and resurrection, washes away all sin. All we need to do is repent, believe Jesus did what he did for us, and be as Christ-like as possible.
Nay, It is not God's fault that people are murderers or pedos or what all. That is humanities fault. Eve defied a command that God specifically commanded them not to do. Adam obliged to do so as well. It is sins fault. Yet anyone... anyone... can gain redemption for their sins in Christianity.
When a God wants to descend from the clouds and show the whole world what the deal is I might believe but until then I'm going to enjoy life… more on earth while it lasts and not hope for an everlasting afterlife in the heavens. If there "is" something beyond our understanding watching down on us I'm pretty confident that it wouldn't send a person who helped people in need and was a good person, to hell, just because they didn't believe or because someone is gay, I mean, if there is a God it would be his fault they were gay seen as he made them and the murderers and the pedos and everything. Faith is Ignorant.
