“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”
― Epicurus

That, or God’s an arsehole, which all things considered…

That’s a fire quote
Or God is a ten year old who is playing around with a world generating machine and has since forgot about us.
We’re just one of the thousands of world saves he placed on a memory card and threw into the closet and forgot about.

Overlooked? … in that scenario, we’re just an unknown accident … it’s like that tiny piece of mold at the bottom of the sink drain
