Second response... I think you missed @jayem 's point...
He seems to essentially be asking about the distinction between 'moral evil' and 'natural evil'. If a God is claimed to be 'good', why impose "natural evil" on individuals prior to the age of their accountability?
would disagree.
God created life.
I'm alive and loving it.
Therefore God is good.
what if you hated life?
therefore would God be evil?
If you hated life you would probable have already ended it. However...(scripture coming)
No because that's no solution
I would meditate, I would study

some do seek a solution
We each have a lifetime to figure it out.
No because that's no solution
I would meditate, I would study

we have karmic consequence

You stated if we thought logically, we would obey the Commandments. Your response then makes no sense.
If we are not completely logical, how would be know WHICH Commandments would be helpful?
If we are not logical, how are we to know which of the 613 Commandments are still relevant, and which ones are not?
If we are not completely logical, how would be know WHICH Commandments would be helpful?
your choice has karmic consequence
