I am more convinced than ever, that God loves every human being equally. If he was going to decide who is good and who is bad, why did he give us this fantastic brain which is soon going to make it possible to land astronauts on Mars? Because he wants us to use our brains and brawn and work on it. His job is not to favor or punish. That has to be done by humans by enacting appropriate laws ands systems, by using our own brain and brawn.

All creatures have goodness, and the angels have far more intelligence than we do. God loves according to goodness, and our brains are given to us so that we may pursue the Good. The highest Good being the Love of the Ultimate Good, God Himself.

Our brains are fantastic, but God is not indifferent as to whether we use them for Good or evil. God's sense of Justice is greater than ours (and beyond ours, as he knows ALL the factors and knows clearly what good is). Humans, with their souls and brains also have a sense of justice where Good is rewarded and evil punished.
