He loves them so much that he allows millions of men, women and children to die horrible deaths and atrocities all in his name.
So much that he commands the deaths of those that don't believe in him to be put to death.
Riiight...
I can feel that warm fuzzy feeling every time I hear of yet another Holy War.

I am in awe of God, He knew/knows so many of His children would say no, still He went ahead with creation.

No to what exactly?
Their life? Or Creation itself?
Fr. Gary Yanus, Judicial Vicar Diocese of Cleveland, -
In his decree of November 11, 2009 Bishop Lennon made it clear that because of a number of issues it was necessary to forbid priests to celebrate the sacraments at the site of the Holy Love shrine and that the faithful are admonished to “cease gathering” there. The word condemned was not used but it is apparent that there are serious concerns regarding the authenticity of the apparitions, among other things.
The bishop has an obligation to pastor his people and protect and nourish their faith. As the pastor of the Diocese of Cleveland his oversight certainly includes what is identified as “ecumenical” in that the faithful of the diocese cannot be encouraged or permitted to participate in any group or organization whose beliefs or practices contradict the teachings of the Church in faith and morals.
The person who wrote you quoted several canons about the rights of the faithful, but has ignored canon 223 which speaks of taking into account the common good of the Church and the obligation of ecclesiastical authority, in view of the common good, to regulate the exercise of the rights of the faithful.

Theological and 'prophetic' errors of Maureen Sweeny's alleged visions
The fact that she has made so many errors, including saying Boris Yeltsin was the AntiChrist ... well ... I'm thinking she's yet another false visionary.

He loves us more than he loves himself, eh? He let the Romans kill his own son using one of the most horrific torture devices of that time. I don't think I want his love.

Somehow, you just made it sound a lot worse.

You mean before they die a terrible death that he literally planned thousands of years before they were born, or after? Because at that point, I wouldn't be laughing either.
