As I said I don't know if that is true, because I don't know you. It does seem that you have identify yourself with these people though. The passage you referred to I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the Lord, do all these things. “You heavens above, rain down my righteousness; let the clouds shower it down. Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let righteousness flourish with it; I, the Lord, have created it. This section is God telling Isaiah that He is anointing Cyrus the great to take possession of Mesopotamia, the holy land, and part of Europe, as far as Macedonia. Cyrus was a benevolent ruler who respected the people under his rule, and let them retain their customs and languages. He is biblically important, because he defeated Babylon, and returned the nation of Israel to their promised land. The God I believe in lets people make their own choices. I believe that He was hoping for better from mankind. You mentioned pedophiles and rapists, this is why there needs to be a temporary separation between God and man, so that the good can be separated from the evil.
