Comment on If Sodom and Gomorrah were real. How bad were they that god had to come down and smite them? Are they any comparison to today's society?

If God is real then God must die.

If God is real then God doesn’t love the creatures on this planet. This sentient creature created a reality filled with suffering of the highest order.

A counter argument to this is this:

We cannot understand God’s plan as we aren’t capable of understanding it because we aren’t God.

This argument is quite stupid in my opinion. Zeus raped people. Is Zeus bad? I think we can agree that Zeus is bad. If a super advanced alien created a human zoo, put humans in it without their consent and also put in wasps whose stings make the humans want to kill themselves. Would we say that the alien is benevolent? Would we say “oooh, Mr. Alien is too advanced for us to perceive their plan, but Mr. Alien definitely loves us”? No, we would try to escape and kill that alien so that it can never harm us ever again. Why does God get special treatment then?
