There are no moral billionaires. Rich men do not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. There are no billionaires in Paradise. In the end, every last one of them burns.
If there was a just god, they would all burn. But if there was a just god, they wouldn't get to be billionaires in the first place. Billionaires aren't worried about hell or the afterlife because most of them know deep down that there will be no repercussions for their unethical behavior.
This line of logic never made sense to me. You could just as easily argue that, as god, the only way to prevent billionaires or people hoarding wealth/resources would be to get rid of free will, and that in a way is also immoral.
He has ended folks free will several times, because folks be sinnin'. The bible contends that was just, so there's plenty of options to stop people from hording wealth.
But my contention is that he doesn't exist, and if he does, he is the most immoral being.
I didn't mean in the biblical god sense, just a higher being.
