Yup, please define "ulimate loving" and "good creator".
Creator is the source from which everything came including us. Ultimate loving and good means you can relax He is not going to harm you and ulike us He is loving and good all the time without exception.

Including the universe?

So we will all go to heaven?

What is "loving" and what is "good"?

Well, I guess it was only a matter of time before a troll turned up on this site as well....

How am I a troll, when I am posing valid questions? My profile states I am non-religious. Is this forum for Christians or religious people only?

yes everything physical. No we do not all go to heaven. Some of us chose to be unloving and kill our spirituality. If we are not reborn spiritually we are left to our mortality and death and non existence. Loving and good are the same. They are the opposite of unloving and evil which is also the same.

Only that no one has said He is.
It would seem to me that if He is able to create all that I can see, He is close to all the omnis. He has power and knowledge beyond my ability to comprehend. On omnipresence I think He is everywhere He wants to be and if He does not want to be somewhere, He is not there.

Who's to say that God's goal is not to be 100% good, 100% of the time? But just so long as the greater good is achieved.

Say, if there were such a thing as destiny, then there would be no evil people because they would just be walking God's set path. Making God the being responsable. This would go against the idea of Hell being a prison for the damned, and could easily go against the christian idea of God.

elman,

So, would you say the defining characteristics of your God is only that He is all-powerful, all-knowing, has no beginning nor end, will never directly harm us physically, financially, or psychologically, and answers our prayers to Him?
No I would say the God I hope is, created us to be able to love and loves us and wants us to be with Him forever.
