God and Suffering (General)

OK, dhw. I misunderstood you. Let me try again. You think that if there is a God, then it would be logically possible for him to create a perfect world, bypassing all the pain of this one. You cannot accept that there is a loving God, because you know that all the present suffering is unnecessary. You know that it would have been possible to go directly to all the good without allowing the evil. So I go back to my earlier question: How can you possibly know this? Should you not at least be agnostic on the question?
