"What should be trivial for such a powerful being is whether we fully understand that creation. To be so offended that he sentences us to eternal torment because we get it wrong is not the sign of a wise, understanding God but of a whiny adolescent."

It's not ignorance of creation that condemns but refusal of the salvation offered in His Son; that's called justice. The whiny adolescent says "I want to do it my way" while a loving God says "I am the way".

And if you either don't do it His way, or refuse to believe that it even is His way He throws you into a lake of fire for all of eternity. He is only loving when worshipped.

Petulant.

That is what was being claimed. If one didn't see the hand of God in creation then God would get pissed and throw us into the Fire.
