I'm not a scholar, nor am I particularly intelligent or reflective but, from what I personally think of God, God gave humanity a pretty clear set of ideas and instructions on how to remain Good. They're not the hardest instructions in the world but there are so many groups aligned with the Other that I think they've made following God's instructions and commands very hard if not impossible.

I have come to belive that there is an Other on this plane of reality and the Other is working overtime to doom as many human souls and corrupt their mortal forms as possible.
