I thought that "eventful" was equivalent to "evil," in your mind. Doesn't the one who dies young get the better deal, then?

Do you believe in the possibility of a malevolent God?

No, the "evil=eventful" was from your "without evil we'd be bored on a beach" scenario. I'm not the one equating evil with life experience.

I don't believe in any gods. "Believe in the possibility" is different; if a god is defined in a way that it could magically hide from any detection, then it is logically possible that it is doing so.

But if you're asking whether I think that whatever a theoretical god wants or does is, by definition, good, then I do not believe that.
