"Sounds contradictory to me."

Now that you mention it, does to me also ...
Another thing I'll have to have him 'splain ....

... but I'm not surprised, if HE created everything, then he designed hell also along with a process whereby it would become populated.

What a handy excuse. You have just laid off everything you have stated on that big "if." Nice to leave yourself an out like that.

So one will go to Hell for killing a preconscious baby, even though you say that act assures that baby of Heaven? Sounds contradictory to me.

My bad; there's no contradiction there, as the good end does not justify the evil means. The contradiction is between the idea that one will go to Hell for killing a preconscious baby and the idea that it's wrong to prevent that killing. It's clear to me that the proper way to resolve that contradiction is to reject the rather silly notion that it's wrong to prevent that killing.

he designed hell also along with a process whereby it would become populated.

He created our free will, which some of us use to choose Hell.
