I thought that I had answered your question when I stated that it doesn't much matter what I wish, does it?
However, if you truly want an answer, that answer would be no. Why? Simply because the testimony of God's Word is that there are, and will be, those who will enter everlasting punishment. Thus, to "wish" that this not be the case would be in contradiction with His desire that my will be in conformity to His. The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished (II Peter 2:9, quoting Job 21:30)
Your turn: Are you, in reality, a Universalist who believes that all mankind will be redeemed, and feel it necessary to dictate to God what He can and cannot do with His created dirt?
I am not a universalist. Although I wish I could be. I do hope and wish that none would perish, which is not yet as strong as God's own words when He says He is not willing that any would perish.
As for feeling it necessary to dictate to God what He can do with His dirt or with His mankind. I do not feel it is necessary, God already loves them far more than I do.
