This world has been a travesty. Who or whatever created it should hang its head in shame and repent.
Well 'the world' was and is created by 'you', adult human beings, and I agree so-called 'hanging those heads', in shame, and repenting, might be a very, very good idea.
Only human beings creates 'the world', whereas God creates 'the Universe'.

Or perhaps closer to the truth, we would do better to recognize that no such "creator" as an all-knowing, all-loving one exists.
'you', adult human beings, are OBVIOUSLY NOT 'all-knowing', and just AS OBVIOUSLY NOT 'all-loving'.
The ALL-Knowing AND ALL-Loving One IS DIFFERENT.

And if the creator is evil, then I will die having stood against evil.
But OBVIOUSLY 'the creator' of 'the world' is DOING evil, and 'you', "gary childress", is OBVIOUSLY one of those many evil-doing adults, in the days when this is being written.
Now, just AS OBVIOUS EVERY adult human being DOES good, so NONE of 'this behavior' needs changing, nor even being bragged about. However, what does NEED CHANGING is ALL OF the Wrong or evil DOING, which ALL of 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this is being written, ARE DOING.
But, OBVIOUSLY, ADMITTING ALL of the Wrong that 'you' ALL DO is NEEDED FIRST.
Then, ABSOLUTE Honesty, Openness, and Want to CHANGE, for the better, for children's sake, is NEEDED.
Then, by JUST DOING ALL 'you' can, TO CHANGE, for the better, WITH H.O. and W., then, and ONLY THEN, will 'you' have Truly STOOD AGAINST 'evil'.

That in itself is good. If I suffer it will be a martyr for justice against a God of unspeakable evil.
'you' sound like just about ALL so-called 'religious freedom fighters' here "gary childress".

I rebuke your God of evil in the name of what is kind, compassionate, and worthy of holiness.
The ONLY 'one' who IS 'the creator' 'of evil', and the 'creator of this world', IS 'you', adult human beings.
STAND UP AGAINST ALL that IS bad and evil by JUST being TOTALLY Honest and OPEN ABOUT the ACTUAL Wrong that 'you' ARE DOING, while seriously Wanting to CHANGE ALL Wrong behavior, for the better.
