Does a sentient universe exists just so you can blame God for your miseries?
Isn't that an oxymoron? Yes, it is, and yet, many espouse that belief, limited though it is. If your only purpose in determining a sentient universe is to eliminate free will, and to eliminate God from your life, then those who determine such blame God for their own responsibility for their miseries in life. Blame God, only. In all other respects, God does not exist, according to this featured philosophy. Anyone care to explain?

Everything that happens is the will of Gods. There is not a thing in this world which doesnt serve them completely.

My parents were abusers, and as a kid I prayed to God to punish them, and Gods did punish them by making their son into an unemployed pedophile who brought them greatest shame. Now they are the ones feeling bad.

I have full confidence in the Gods. My life was already completely written and determined by Gods. Nothing can happen unless Gods will it.

On the will of Gods, yes they do have a desire for our dedicated thoughts and actions, but my thoughts and actions are mine to choose by free will, only hoping that I am doing the will of Gods. if they are directing my every thought and action, why do I exist? I am, on that consitrioon, no better ooff than the Greeks and Roman's with their toying gods who use us for their pleasure, with little regard for ours.  I find the thought of not having my own agency a useless purpose. I see no coercion, even from Satan.

Some people do that. It's the consequence of teaching that there is a God that created everything and tries all the time to make you sin by sending once in a while his employee that people call Satan. As stupid as that.

By the way, people created the devil or Satan because it's a psycologycal mechanism to defend themselves. It's called psycological projection. So instead of carrying the heavy load of their bad deeds, people project a being that they call Satan or Lucifer, and blame him for their bad deeds. At least this is a useful mechanism, but the truth is that there is no such a devil, there's no one that make you sin but only yourself.

People should understand that they need to be held accountable for their bad deeds and take action to mend. If they don't, THE KARMA will make the job for them.
