Why does God allow the torture of children who in their young lives have no conception of a supreme being and have no means to either accept or reject Jesus?

And as for animals, pets are routinely beaten, maimed, tortured and killed by cruel individuals. Why does God allow that to happen?

Do you know their future hearts? God does!

Because we invited evil into our lives when we ate hte apple, and now we have to endure hte consequences of our choice, and htis means that many many thigns will be unfair because evil peopel choose to do the evil instead of hte good. As well, our love of God is not dependent upon the good that is done to us- it involves a love that loves despite hte evil that is done- This is a powerful love, and not many peopel are willing to give this type of love-even to their creator.
