10. "Punish the world"

WTF? That has always confused me.

If God is pissed off, why does he have to punish everyone?

He's God, right? So why doesn't he pop down and tell each *person* who's doing the wrong thing, "Hey, bub, it's me, God. What you're doing is wrong and it's really making me angry. So knock it off before I smite thee."

Why does he act to punish everyone, and then cause even MORE confusion because no two believers can agree on EXACTLY why the "punishment" was deserved?
