Lucky: No i'm not asking for any kind of world. I'm claiming that your god is both evil and a hypocrite.
His teachings supposedly claim that us humans are forbidden from being evil against oneanother, or we will be punished in the afterlife.
We're supposedly not allowed to kill eachother (except people of other religions and races, those are perfectly fine to enslave and murder according to the bible), yet god kills us as he pleases both directly, through agents and through sheer neglect.
And he doesn't even bother to ensure that the really wicked people get killed or subjected to a torturous existence. He, his agents and his biological mechanicsms kills completely arbitrarily and indiscriminately.
He has the power to ensure that our existence doesn't have go be so miserable. It wouldn't cost him anything to end disease, starvation, thirst and the other maladies plaguing billions of people. Yet he choose not to. So not only is he uncaring towards all the suffering, he is also extrwmely uncharitable because he has ultimate power and has to pay no price to fix exactly everything, yet he refuses.
An entity behaving this way, and then presumes to tell me that I can't break his "commandments" or live in sin, is a fucking hypocrite and he can frankly take his commandments and rules about sin and shove them up his ass.
If he refuse to lead by example regarding all his rules, laws and commandments, then he can expect no loyalty or devotion from me. I'd sooner kill him than follow the teachings of his enslaved sheep.

Lucky:
No I don't demand a specific world or a "perfect world" out of hand. Being atheist I realize that the world is not designed but created by a long chain of chemical processes following the laws of physics that has no intent or design behind it. So trying to "demand" a better world would be completely pointless.
It would be like demanding that the ocean spits me right back up on safe land instead of drowning me if the ship I sail across the atlantic sinks for some reason. The ocean will not hearken to my demands, because the ocean is not an intelligent being with any "intent" to drown me. If I drown I do so as a matter of natural consequence of ending up in the water far from land.
What I am saying however is that IF you religious people are right, and there is "intelligent design" behind the world and some sort of sentient creator made the world, then I do DEMAND that the world be made more merciful to people by this omnipotent creator, if I am also expected to accept your claims that this creator is a morally "good" being.
The problem with you religious people is that you want to have the cake and eat it too. On the one hand you want to claim that the world is not evolved, it is designed by an omnipotent creator. But even though it's logically impossible for this creator to be morally "good" considering all the manifestations of evil and suffering in the world (that is the specific evil and suffering that mankind cannot be blamed for, because mankind did not decide that volcanoes should erupt, tsunamis or earthquakes to form or lethal diseases to spread and killing innocent people or animals).
I'll buy the argument that we humans are responsible for things like wars and oppression in pursuit of wealth and power. The suffering stemming from that is our responsibility and cannot be blamed on God from a moral or ethical perspective since this specific death and suffering stem from the choices we make as individuals and as a species.
But when it comes to natural disasters and the evolution and spread of harmful diseases, then you can no longer blame mankind for that because we didn't create natural disasters like earthquakes, volcano eruptions, tsunamis, tornadoes etc. We also didn't create disease like cancer, ebola, malaria etc.
These diseases and natural disasters are NOT our responsibility. We didn't design the system that cause these things to happen. YOUR GOD DID! (according to your beliefs, not mine)
In fact, almost all humans across the world will agree that if we could stop natural disasters and diseases from happening, then we would take the necessary steps to do so. But as it is, it is entirely out of our hands. Nothing we do or refrain from doing will stop earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, cancer and virulent diseases from causing us and other species pain, suffering and death.
Your god is to blame. Your god created this system. Your god as well as you also claim that god is "perfect". That his power is absolute. That he is omnipotent and can literally do ANYTHING.
So following pure logic, only two conclusions about God can be reached on this matter: Either you and the religious people are wrong when you assume that God is omnipotent. He created these death-causing natural disasters and diseases by mistake. He didn't think things through and couldn't forsee or stop the consequences. Ergo he is NOT omnipotent, but flawed.
OR
He is omnipotent. He could forsee all consequences. He didn't make any mistakes but the system he created is working just as intended. Which means: he derive pleasure or entertainment from seeing us humans suffer and die at the hands of his system. His creation. He laughs at our misery when volcanoes erupt and spew molten lava and poisonous gasses over human beings. He finds it entertaining when a plague sweeps over a human society killing innocent and guilty alike.
There are no other possibilities to this equation, no matter how much you religious people may want there to be. Either god is a sadist, or he is not omnipotent.
Therefore I say: if God doesn't make the world better when he should have the power to do so (if he is omnipotent), then he's just an evil douchebag for refusing.
Or he CAN'T make the world better, because his powers are limited, in which case he's just incompetent.
Evil sadist, or incompetent doofus. Take your pick which assesment you like the most, because frankly I don't care which.
